Heng 1st Gear May 5, 2016 Share May 5, 2016 My feel of the results is this. Inspite of all the Uber fears and 'panic' buying and Car show, looks like demand is weak relative to supply. We should see $40k coe very soon. ↡ Advertisement 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forte3737 5th Gear May 5, 2016 Share May 5, 2016 with more COEs still prices of COE went up, goes to show Uber n Grab are going for the COEs with general car owners. Not a good sign for the general public. You are right. But this is the scenario which LTA is hopping for.coe quota increase, yet prices keep increasing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MQX87511 5th Gear May 5, 2016 Share May 5, 2016 羊毛出在羊身上。 And yet there are ministers saying that COE and car price do not affect the general public, as long as we don't buy car?! if ministers willing give up driving 1st, I will too 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Passion 5th Gear May 5, 2016 Share May 5, 2016 with more COEs still prices of COE went up, goes to show Uber n Grab are going for the COEs with general car owners. Not a good sign for the general public. Definitely not a good sign. How a peasant(Even you are a millionaire) compete with billionaire? Like I said earlier, they are manipulating the market, hopefully everyone will go and rent cars from them since COE is out of reach. So who win? Only 2 entities, Uber and govt. Let's just pray that Uber will be oversaturated and driving Uber no longer viable. Big sticker on the car to deter those want face value but no money own car type to be weed out and also, same guiding principle for Uber and taxis.

We should see $40k coe very soon.Why u say that when prices have gone north for the last 4 rounds or so? Based on that it would appear a sub 40k would be really hard and likely hover around 45k in the near future? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should see $40k coe very soon.Lol is this a joke? Honestly I expected Cat E to go tumbling down, given the artificially increased quota from 400+ to 700+. It defied logic by staying the same. 40k+ looks like the new norm so far. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carstar 1st Gear May 5, 2016 Share May 5, 2016 With extra coe this bidding but coe still up, you think those on the sideline won't rush in already meh, they wait so long for this bidding to see if drop or up. If drop most likely they will wait on, but now it's up, so they sure panic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Char 5th Gear May 5, 2016 Share May 5, 2016 This is what pirate hire company want COE stay high and force those rent car from them. With extra coe this bidding but coe still up, you think those on the sideline won't rush in already meh, they wait so long for this bidding to see if drop or up.

Arch1984 4th Gear May 5, 2016 Share May 5, 2016 As long as there are buyers who sign on the car purchase contract at prices that support the current COE levels, COE wun drop. The AD or PI will die die wanna get the COE to conclude the sale and earn the profit. Only way for COE to drop is for ppl to give up cars or reject the current prices and thats not going to happen. More and more singaporeans are doing well and can afford to support the high coe price. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nav14 6th Gear May 5, 2016 Share May 5, 2016 (edited) With extra coe this bidding but coe still up, you think those on the sideline won't rush in already meh, they wait so long for this bidding to see if drop or up. If drop most likely they will wait on, but now it's up, so they sure panic. Let all rush in , panicky buyers, Uber etc but sooner or later will get exhausted with the supply still increasing. Then prices will start coming down again. Repeated so many times before and same scenario will play out again. No choice if you cannot wait but if can wait till end of this year or early next year, you should see below $40k prices in both Cat A/B. Uber /Grab car will be forgotten by then, as it is not money is falling from the sky for them or demand for such cars is so high.

MQX87511 5th Gear May 5, 2016 Share May 5, 2016 even a silly also know it is bulls**t that talk about "lite car society" without shrinking COE quota, since I spent 100k over bought a car, you want me to leave the car at carpark to take bus/MRT or walk, kidding bloh 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricChan 5th Gear May 5, 2016 Share May 5, 2016 (edited) I can tell you what I saw. About 1000 bids at cat A in this round at $37k were unsuccessful . If I take away from the next fortnight bid of 2200 available cat A Coe and assuming that the number of revision of price in that 1000 unsuccessful bids were insignificant (each of those comprised of one bidder) , it means that only 1200 cat A remains available in the next round. For cat B , the unsuccessful was 800 bids at $38k meaning only 600 cat B remains. It is likely not the case therefore that Coe price will be markedly lower next round given the high number of unfulfilled bids at the $37 k support level.

Maybe the ad and the pi not bidding for most of their expo sales yet. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
