It is a beauty in metal. First time I'm stopped from taking photo by the dealer, citing confidentiality issue, as requested by the owner. Shit, and I just realized that I have miss another rare car next to it... That Pearl White Ferrari FF! Heard OMV only $30K and asking for nearly 1/2million .... catch no bola , better off with a Conti Bentley, RR 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one I saw today (at Bukit Merah workshop) has beige interior instead of grey (unit on sales on sgcarmart), and probably 3 - 5 year old, so that mean there are more than 1 unit in Singapore! Too bad I can't take photo of it interior, else would be easier to do a online comparison. 6 hours ago, Hamburger said: some dealer really think carrot cake is the best dish in the world. Btw, bro carbon secretly took photo of the under chassis? Maybe curious on the suspension set up.😈 $30K OMV is obviously under-declared given that a brand new unit cost ~$150K in Japan. I am surprised LTA take that for ARF calculation! Don't remind me of my unpleasant experience with the char bor today, if she has seen my quick snap a second earlier, I have to do a NPNT here... 4 hours ago, BanCoe said: Heard OMV only $30K and asking for nearly 1/2million .... catch no bola , better off with a Conti Bentley, RR With OMV of only $30K, any other cars including BRAND NEW Camry, Accord, Stinger, Superb, Passat make much more $en$e than this... 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think LTA will not bother with single car imports OMV manipulation as they have to use lotsa resources to make the importer prove undeclared value ..... they rather go for mass market imports ( especially new cars) where they can send a chill down the spine of big importers and where they know the international market prices and are more transparent and easily available Edited October 3, 2019 by BanCoe 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mkl22 Twincharged October 3, 2019 Share October 3, 2019 (edited) 30k is under. However if it is a 3year old then one can still say got massive depre from brand new. Used imports are allowed as long as not over 3years old. https://www.leadmotors.co.jp/detail-op/toyota/century-554706561 2016! Mileage is high but less than 30k sgd! So possible.

Drivability, reliability, usability, ergonomics, build quality and overall experience are other factors. Don't just buy a car based on what your eyes see. I think the x70 proton is quite a good build ... China Buick is not too bad until it breaks down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
