Vinceng Turbocharged February 19, 2014 Share February 19, 2014 Did you all notice bids for Cat A remain at 700 bids, but the bid amount $$$ keeps going up So that means existing bidders are revising bids upwards? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wt_know Supersonic February 19, 2014 Share February 19, 2014 (edited) Bids Received = unique bid or every single bid including revised bid? if unique bid means 700 people fight for 362 Cat A coe ...

Quantum 5th Gear February 19, 2014 Share February 19, 2014 At first I thought might work but again news show that premium brands are bring in lower spec vehicles to counter the government intentions. only VW and Mecr brought a few "premium brands" to CAT A, why Singaporen die die want VW or Mecr badge, even if it's low power engine, it caused all of us only want to buy Jap/Kor cars have to bear sky high COE, 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTOT 1st Gear February 19, 2014 Share February 19, 2014 We have only ourselves to blame for being naive, believing that the new Cat will work. LTA simply did what the majority requested them to do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shorty Turbocharged February 19, 2014 Share February 19, 2014 now more or less the cars coe are settled ard the same level. the interesting cat will b for motorcycle. keeps going up n up. jus bcos the LTA scholars somehow pulled out a magic figure from the air that they need to reduce the quota, when all traders said the de-registration has remained same or increased.

Vinceng Turbocharged February 19, 2014 Share February 19, 2014 COE is about demand and supply and will remain at such sky high levels even if LTA increases quota. ICA is allowing more foreigners to live and work in Singapore and foreigners are also buying cars. Look at the no. of foreigners in Singapore 5 years ago and now. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knoobie Supercharged February 19, 2014 Share February 19, 2014 We have only ourselves to blame for being naive, believing that the new Cat will work. LTA simply did what the majority requested them to do. honestly, to include BHP into COE categorisation was NEVER the suggestion from the mass... the closest was to base on OMV at least... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super7 Turbocharged February 19, 2014 Share February 19, 2014 only VW and Mecr brought a few "premium brands" to CAT A, why Singaporen die die want VW or Mecr badge, even if it's low power engine, it caused all of us only want to buy Jap/Kor cars have to bear sky high COE, You are probably right to say it. Some buy these conti brands for their technologies, some for their presumed 'brand names', whatever it is, the true B&B buyers will be priced out of the market again. Why cant they use OMV values instead of hp as the criteria? Currency fluctuations can be adjusted accordingly although not very precisely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
