Axela72 5th Gear September 24, 2016 Share September 24, 2016 (edited) Found this budget comparison document - Interesting that our Vehicle Quota Premium revenue is projected as $5.65B and with roughly 100,000 COEs this year, the price of our current COE is at $50-60K. The person who did the maths is a fortune teller...If this is valid, the only way to maintain the coe price level when demand is reduced is by relaxing the car loan further Edited September 24, 2016 by Axela72 ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vwguy77 3rd Gear September 24, 2016 Share September 24, 2016 Agreed, almost like all the brand new cars on the road now is LCR cars! Even now you bought a new car yourself for private use also people suspect your car is from LCR. Lol. Uber should have demand since the retrenchment rate might go up. Last time during recession, many people also become taxi driver. I do hear from my friend that his uncle's new attrage was often mistaken as Grab or Uber car that some customers blindly open his car door as he was waiting for his wife at some carpark. His uncle gets very TL every day and started to regret his purchase.... wakakaka.... 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess many uber rider who requested a ride, very coincidence that attrage also arrived at their place, so whoever driving a private attrage happened to appear at that place then too bad liao. Lol. Esp if your attrage colour is same as those uber car colour. WA lah ah ! Really flooded with these Ubor everywhere .... These Drivers just simpily stop by the road side and wait for call !

Those uber drivers should have wait in a carpark than road side. Hopefully uber would reduce buying attrage for their rental, and also coe would come down for the next few months. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But people booked car now also doesnt mean they will successful in next bid whether coe is up or down. Think coe might up and down between 50-60k range now?!

Elantra GLS at @$86K selling like hot cakes. Promo ends Sun . Let's hope it isn't one of those schemes where the price is low, but the odds of scoring a COE are low and the buyer ends up topping up.. With these 'bargains' from various companies, it's hard to see how long the COE can go, and again, there will be a backlog of PI COE bids, plus these offers from the various ADs to entice buyers to change their cars.

With 2,000 cat A coe avail for bidding, "strong booking" may mean nothing if PH dont come in to compete. By the way are Attrage drivers the only group who face uber passengers problem ? How about Vezel , Altis or QQ? No passengers mistaken their cars wrongly ? Edited September 24, 2016 by Ct3833 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think coe might up and down between 50-60k range now?!But they will form the backlog of future bids, propping up the COE demand even further!Most who had placed their bookings will usually decide to top up, rather than let go ... unless COE rise goes ballistic!!

Its almost confirmed to be a LCR car. haha... With 2,000 cat A coe avail for bidding, "strong booking" may mean nothing if PH dont come in to compete. By the way are Attrage drivers the only group who face uber passengers problem ? How about Vezel , Altis or QQ? No passengers mistaken their cars wrongly ? The other makes like Vezel & Altis has a much bigger private owners size and it comes with a variety of colors. But the attrage from LCR is predominately WHITE.

Club21z 4th Gear September 25, 2016 Share September 25, 2016 Even though one may book the car at lower price, the buyer may end up topping up if coe goes north. Sometimes a bit gimmick when dealer offer low pricing but bid coe low and end up top up required. Lock down technique by dealer. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see if anyone actually secures a car at this price, then I will agree that it's a steal. My fear is that it's just a price tag to attract buyers who then need to top up.
