jtww01 Neutral Newbie March 13, 2020 Share March 13, 2020 Q3 can go up to 20". There is an optional spec for 20" rims in other countries, running 255/40/R20 tyres. This is the Standard Q3 in 20's I wished PA thought of going to 17" sooner, could have saved me 10k in VES. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"The overall rolling radius of the wheels and tyres should remain the same as the original" Sometimes the govt websites should just write in English.

Jeffrey 1st Gear March 14, 2020 Share March 14, 2020 Looks like Q3 sportback is now officially launched as PA today took out a full page ad in the Life section of ST. It is advertised at an effective price of $150k. I never understood what is effective price; can the knowledgeable ones here please help to explain how this works - with examples? Its complex to me as it is a combination of various things, eg overtrade, loan amount and tenure, no free bees, insurance, etc, etc. Will be helpful to potential buyers. Thanks in advance.

This overtrade thingy has been discussed to death in MCF To cut a long story short, the extra 18k from overtrade is for cash strap buyer to borrow extra $$ to make minimum d/p. Ownself pay ownself n no bargaining power. Worse deal ever. Anyone walk in no trade in car can also buy at 150k 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone walk in no trade in car can also buy at 150k I understand the overtrade deal - for higher loan, and also as a means for the AD to hide extra discounts given to a particular customer. I guess my question is how is the "base" trade-in price established? By PA inhouse valuer (A) or a 3rd party used car dealer (B)? For example, B may value your trade-in at $100k, but A at $92k, a gap of $8k. That will distort the effective price by $8k. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say every part of the pricing is individually negotiable and usually inflated to hide some margin for the dealer. eg a fair market price for your trade in car maybe $40K, but they will quote $36-$39 and then use the over trade of $10K to imply you are getting $46-$49K. I look at the net price as without all discounts. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
