KNN, bike COE already so cheap still want OPB.... khiam phak.... [laugh]

 

OPC rebates do not only include COE value. It includes the OMV as well.

 

im sure u have not heard of bikes with OMV more than SGD15k do you?

 

OPB will be good for many car owners who wish to own a weekend bike for leisure.

Of course I know! Harley is at least 30K if I'm not mistaken. Anyway, I don't think you're correct to say that it covers OMV. The rebate is suppose to cover the COE, ARF and whatever duty but not to the extend of covering the OMV. Wah, that's like gahmen subsidize the cost of the car itself for you to drive? OK, occasionally, with a fluke low COE, it may eat into the OMV but that's not what it's meant to be....

 

Even if there will be an OPB, don't dream that it will be even close to 15K....

I would like to have OPPC

 

Off Peak Performance Car.

Meaning the car will NEVER be allowed on road from 7am-7pm. The road tax will be much lower (which can be substantial for a >3.5liter sports car), and also the insurance will be lower.

Maybe the Rebate on overall car instead of OPC $17k....for OPPC can be $34k.

 

This way maybe can reduce the overall cost of say a Porsche Caymen.....making it affordable for new graduates who are not earning much to own a high performance car for their night life.

the flat $17k rebate makes cheaper cars attractive to buy. i wonder, if the rebate now works on percentage based, how many performance cars we will see on the road? [thumbsup]

 

buying a $300k car with $17k rebate
