13177 Supersonic July 21, 2019 Share July 21, 2019 (edited) Heard the report on ch8 news last night. Iirc showrooms seeing 20% increase in customers. But experts say that this increase could be just a kneejerk reaction.Always like this when they announced a cut of coe quota and a slight dropped in coe price, people would rush to the showroom to see look or even book a car de. Then next round coe confirmed will increase and ADs would inject fear to customers that coe would continue to increase, so faster book a car now or top up to avoid missing the boat.

Lotr 6th Gear July 21, 2019 Share July 21, 2019 (edited) The car dealers are so fast in raising prices.Need to raise price to maintain profit margins, how to wait? Pass the cost when coe rise. Keep the savings when coe drop. Edited July 21, 2019 by Lotr Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like most ADs business should be very good over the weekends that they need to increase price to profit more? If price going to increase so much, maybe it would deter people from buying lo.

But guess subsequent coe should come down and stable around 27k due to economic no good. It's just state media hyping things up, striking fear and making buy do irrational things. Seen it too many times. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
