Thinking of buying MErc C180

[SimonTan]

Whatever...just get It before the auota cut.

Next year CNY can show off to relatives.

I always admire people who are able to afford luxury cars.

If i am capable eneough, i will get one star car too.

ya bro i know..from what i recall the 1.6 has been ditched...now wheres Cerano??

 

paiseh was in camp la now back liaos

 

 

from what i understand, it was from 1.8 kompressor to 1.6 kompressor BE then to 1.8 CGI but C&C replaced it with the 1.6kompressor again due to sales volume?

Only a relative basis, i think it is a good buy but i am not in a rush and not sure if i am committing into a car with high COE..

C&C only selling the C180 Kompressor now which is 1.6L. Price is $153888. No more selling the C180CGI. Anyway, the price diff between the C180CGI and the C200CGI is $15k so if they decide to bring back the C180CGI, it would cost ard $173888 given current COE price.

 

My advice is go for the CGI as its new technology, more powerful and fuel efficient.

ICT ah?? act as long as hp and torque remains the same, its all the more better to be 1.6

[Maroon5]

now tat we know its 1.6 and Cat A, the $139k price makes alot more sense now..

Ppl, just came back from showroom with my friend. The price for C180K 1.6L BE is $153888, less $1k discount and $3k overtrade. Nett price is $149888. For those who might be interested!

Confirmed C&C is not bringing in the C180CGI anymore. That will be a rare car and will remained the only turbo-charged C180.

but of course there'll be hidden downsides to that...

 

price attractive but buy with caution and if you're pretty sure you'll drive it for quite long.

 

which i reckon most will cuz i find that its a pretty comfortable cruiser that can still provide decent driving pleasure.

 

engine and gearbox not really there but still enough IMO. anyway its a car meant to be wafted around in.

 

furthermore, the direct rivals ie A4 and 320 are priced so much higher, which still makes it a better buy now.

anyw here is more details for pple interested.

 

OMV 32k

Cat A COE

 

To buy at 138k, u need to get 90% loan at 2.68% and cash rebate would be 8% of the loan amount.

Cash rebate would be 8% of 137k loan (153k * 90%) = 11k.

 

153k list price less 1k discount less 3k trade in discount less 11k cash rebate => 138K.

 

i guess the only thing is this cash rebate has to paid back prorated for early redemptions.

and seriously C&C offers the highest trade in value

i see, the rebate's almost like the overtrade offer they had earlier. but dependent on loan amount. but then if wana enjoy this rebate but loan 90%??? phew!

 

the overtrade offer they gave early this year is more enticing cuz the rebate given is based on car price.

 

no wonder i hear some buyers being 'advised' to take loan. even just for a year though the buyer can pay full cash. and c&c offer with no penalty for early settlement. guess their tie ups with the relative finance company(s) is pretty good.
