Old vs new elantra. It has definitely grown quite a bit.

Although I am no longer driving a Korean car, I have to disagree with this comment. If you look closely at an Altis or Vios, you will notice that the quality of build isn't what it is supposed to me. The external body parts are not very well put together with uneven gaps and seams. In my opinion, Hyundais are better build. It has been well documented somewhere in MCF forum already.

what is the OMV?

[Porche]

Resale value.....u go check how much a 2yr old Altis now?

[Porche]

i agree with u Vios and Altis got some quality issues. have a couple of friends bought vios and altis, those driving vios have either switch to other made or upgrade.

Hyundais cheaper and better build. Why so many singaporeans buying Jap cars?

[Porche]

Panels dropping after a yr, rusting spots at certain locations to name some...c if any other bro face any prob can drop down some comments

[Porche]

i dun know what u want to tell me......! i rest my case

[Biccat]

A lot of it has to do with biased perception. When Jap makes were introduced many years ago, ppl were also reluctant to switch due to the impresssion that Conti is better. However, it is no longer the case now. The 1st Korean also made its way into the S'pore market in the 80s by way of the Hyundai Pony. Sales were also very bad then. But times has changed. Hyundai is already among one of the top selling brands in S'pore cos ppl have already accepted it as a quality brand product and also partly due to the clever pricing by Komoco. However, some of the biased perception against Korean makes are hard to dispense with.

I received a brochure in my mail last night, the engine power is 121hp/6200rpm! That's a pretty powerful engine!

[Biccat]

That's right. It is even one step ahead of the Altis which is only 110 bhp although I understand that the next Altis will also be 120 bhp and above.

Near 15k...

Thanks.

 

Seems to be on the high side.

 

Fiat Punto OMV is 14940. With COE at 10003. Basic cost is 45401. From onemotoring. So, 54k means about 10k margin...

Dun forget the overheads to run a company... =)
