Rickster 5th Gear May 24, 2007 Share May 24, 2007 Yah, I think you are right that this is the 6th & last bid for bookings immediately after pre-CNY plunge. Also, maybe luxury car do make a difference by 2% increase in GST as the OMV is normally very high. I don't think the 2% GST would affect the OMV much. Even if the luxury car's OMV is 60K, 2% increase would only mean $1200 U think people who buys luxury cars are bothered by the $1200? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrishir Clutched May 24, 2007 Share May 24, 2007 COE prices always go in a cycle...around july and dec they start to fall if u have observed for the past 3 years. However, this time round, COE up by quite abit because Govt lower the quota...means lesser COE per month so price will up by a bit. Another factor is the GST 2%. If u go showroom, the sales tactics is currently buy before GST increase. My advice don't listen to their crap. 2% of $50000 is $1000. COE increased from $5000 to $16000 which is $11000 more. $1000 vs $11000!! Once this GST thingy starts the kiasu singaporeans will stop buying cars for awhile and COE will drop by quite abit. You can start buying when COE reaches around $7 - 8K cos i doubt it will drop to $5K again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windwaver Turbocharged May 24, 2007 Share May 24, 2007 Cos many do not consider road conditions before buy a car. It's only after buying a car, then they realised that it's actually not so 'cool' driving in jams on major roads. Some of my friends prefer to knock off on public transport than face the traffic in town these days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redeel Neutral Newbie May 24, 2007 Share May 24, 2007 (edited) Steffy, if you are given the option of taking back deposit and can afford to wait, i would take it back if i were you. Current COE is too hot (even with a weak market), and you can observe the market again when GST 7% kicks in. No car no pain, unless you're used to driving around everywhere already. eddie (90085584) Edited May 24, 2007 by Redeel Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
