Wondering Why Does Ppl Selling Their Car So Expensive ???

[Hikaru33]

Sg car is tent cheaper compared with malaysia car if you buy brand new car
and dont convert the currencies value

if you work at Mal. you might earn RM5k
but same job at SG also might earn you 5k SG

a Rm5k here might only entitle you for Civic 2.0 only
while 5k SG i think you can afford a Brand new Evo or Subaru if i not mistaken

Wah...assuming a 2.0 Civic is 130k with interest rate at 3.5% and 84 months (7 years) of installments....that makes up to be abour 1.8k of installment per month.

5k minus EPF contribution and tax would be 4k plus something. Minus 1.8k per month and u are left with 2.2k plus per month to eat, pump petrol and wat not.....not quite enought right?

Must convert la Cuz the rice cost import from Thailand also converted what. If don't convert, our rice price will be 10 times more expensive (maybe more due to storage cost and other factor). Your income also need to convert, because if don't convert, the spirit of climbing higher will be lesser

Our fuel is cheaper and no COE + no laws saying that you must pay certain amount to continue to own the same car after certain period even though pass the emission test. Long term wise, our car no doubt is still cheaper. A lot cheaper. Car park and other hidden cost not count yet because some people will argue for keep a nice car and not driving it :stupid:

Someone said wanna sell Vspec ar? Wait I come back 1st to view the green/black rx7 (if not sold yet). After that may contact you

ok no problem i will wait ... since now economy down slope no one will use so much money to buy a Godzilla ... haha ...

Hmm interesting debate. I figure the reason why prices vary are mostly due to the fact that we don't use a blue book to ascertain fair prices for 2ndhand cars - think Kelly Blue Book.

Another fact is that because some models of cars are considered to be "hot", prices rarely drop as there will always be someone interested in buying it for whatever price. Some of these "hot" cars also happen to be rare cars due to gray imports and lack of factory production support in this region, not to mention the import taxes. Cars like this: AE86, S15, S13, EK9s etc etc.

For example i remember seeing a bunch of S15s for sale for only 120k and under in 2005. The prices even though the car has been discontinued since 2001 can now be found for 130k++ unreg.

A stock standard Rx7 going for 70k? Doesn't sound like much if everything has been kept in good condition and the engine has already been rebuilt, otherwise i wouldn't pay that amount. Either way i'm using that as an analogy for the condition of the car. Oh and if its a '93 screw that!

In most cases if you have a sweet car that everyone wants its definitely a seller's market. Conversely if you have a stock standard Wira 1.3 from 1993, may God smile on you. :)

problem with ppl is that nobody wants to RUGI (including myself).

so, i dont see any problems if sellers were to sell at a higher price.

selling online is different from selling outside, sure...outside is cheaper but inside (or online) is higher maa...

just like how u compare a GUCCI original and a GUCCI fake laa..

u have to face this kinda things when u buy online, its very normal already BUT sellers selling online have to wait much longer to sell their stuffs and whereas those selling at retail can sell much faster (like walk in customers n etc).

so basically, i would prefer to sell online or in forums.. it has better value, my car last time was sold in zth, if i sell to used car dealer they only makan 7k but i sold it of for 15k in zth.

i'm a bit surprised. you own a V Spec, which is quite rare. how come you're asking questions about car value? did you buy the V Spec because its a V Spec or because it was one of the cars available at that time? :hmmmm:

 

[fstr]

V spec? v stands for virgin??

at tht time were only came out vspec , i bought tht car for like 290k ... but now im selling off 200k ... so i think is kinda good price thou ... i would not stick to 230k coz i still have some upgrades there ...

 

[csl]

To confirm, v-spec or v-spec II? Bought RM290k should be V-spec II

Sigh. Worthless thread, it's a wonder it's still not closed yet.

It's just like asking "Why is the petrol price so expensive???" . Like DUH? You know the answer but you just wanna ask just to make a worthless "point" and get attention. whoopsss did i stir up heat? kbye
