look at the OMV+ AFR paid, the owner probably sell it at a loss, if not break even

Must be a direct import by honest owner whom declared the correct value; unlike dealers whom declare only a certain % value so as to flip and make the car look cheap

A rare Boxster; 987 Boxster Spyder.

I believe there are only a handful of these in Singapore.

Maxus van with private registration plate, relatively rare. Have to say the MPV is huge in metal.

This is both special and rare. I wrote about this one before but have yet to see one myself. Only 1,944 units were produced between late 2009 to mid 2011.

It was the lightest Porsche available at the time, weighing ~80kg less than a regular Boxster S, made possible through several weight reduction measures.

The aluminium doors save 15kg, the one-piece rear deck made from the same stuff cuts another 3kg, and carbon-backed bucket seats trim 12kg. The ten-spoke wheels are the lightest set of 19" rims that Porsche make, weighing less than 10kg each, and the lower side windows also helps shed a few pounds.

The lack of an electrically folding fabric roof also helps cut weight. The new ‘cap’ – as Porsche calls it – weighs <6kg, and the carbonfibre frame that supports it weigh just 5kg. The roof clips onto the windscreen header rail, and two hooks fasten onto the rear deck, and when you close the new Carrera GT-style boot, it acts as a lever to tighten the roof.

Inside the Spyder you won’t find a radio, air-con, cup holders or door pockets, though you can spec the sound system and beverage holders back in at no extra cost. And you can choose the less extreme (i.e. heavier) sports seats if you want. Fabric door pulls, red seat belts, the lack of a cowl for the instrument clusters complete the list of weight saving treatments made to the car...

1st time seeing Hafei Minz Truck on our road. Their passenger and commercial van used to be a common sight on our road when COE was at its lowest point >10 years ago.
