Kudos to the blardy smart owner (in a way), took out the exclusive S204 spoiler, BBS wheels, Recaro carbon seats n Pirelli Zero Corsa tyres (probably sold all) before kena re-possessed !!! Brembo brakes and lip spoiler still looks intact (might as well dispose of it too)~

 

potential buyers better double-check the special turbo-charger, pistons, conrods n Yamaha dampers !!! scarli all not there anymore n so much for buying the real deal

before the current auction, the indicative price was only $67k. i guess they realised what is a S204

[Beachboys]

lol with all the missing stuff, they can put it back to $67k again~

[So_nice]

but hey..its still an s204..losing the rims is fine but not those seats and tat exclusive spoiler!

[Hotisland]

No no no, they are smarter than that. Actually they may work with some dealers on these kind auctions. There's rumour that some auctioneers favor the dealers over individual bidder. They may even let dealers to choose & buy cars after auction closed. So the individual buyers either get the car dealers don't want or if the car is cheap and good, you won't get it. It's a sure win for the auctioneer. My friend is believe in this theory becoz last time he was outbid by a very small margin. Mind you that it's not that he bade 59995 and this guy bade 60000! He actually bade a very unusal amount and still got outbid by a neglectable amount. It's hard to beleive it's just the other guys luck. Coincidentally the final price of the car was also way below the market value.

 

I hope one day sg can also have the open and totally transparent car auction - all bidder come and bid on spot, there's no back room deals anymore.

Went down to check the car, found that both front door don't really operate well (not smooth)probably all four doors have been swop before.

 

The engine coolant ressovir was bone dry! with dust inside! The turbo look kind of small as well and I suspect the engine has been swop as well.

 

If you are looking for a High OMV WRX STI to rebuild, this could be the one.

But to sell at 204 price, good luck to GE unless some ill inform fellow bid for it at a

premium!

[So_nice]

i ever heard from a dealer fren tat once another deal bidded for a civic eg at a low price however unable to check as there were no keys. subsequently got the car back and discovered tat engine was missing from the engine bay!!

[Blackyv]

[Stary]

 

Like that also can? Then how? Just play with the car body huh?

[So_nice]

[Furrynadz]

[Doosan]

the norm of industrial eqpmnts aution is:

participating eqpmnts r like fashion show,operate right infront of potential bidders.

then u make ur decision over pricing.........

 

late Aug/early sept i saw by 100s repo rides parkd on top of an industrial bldg in Bt Batok Cresc.

 

1of 2OO7 pana was decorated wit lots of toys inside is now on sales in sgcarmart.

Many years back,if i'm not wrong during year 2000, my dad bidded a 10years old Honda Accord at $28K with renew 10years COE. At that time, the Auction is on the spot bidding. However, for those fax submission bidding, its quite true that dealer can out bid bidders at very small margin as the staff from the bank and the dealer work hand in hand

[Sniperben]

yes, this is so true, heard of it as well! so guys, beware of this kind of auction.

[Contax]

oh yeah , the 1.6T urbo S tolen

hear? its rumours.

 

But they do ask some dealers to bid higher to be fair to both bank and owner. If your fren want the car, make a offer the dealer can't match and he will get it.

just saw Subaru'ad today... brand new S204 @ $115k !!!

 

so much for Glenn Tan's strategy few yrs ago to increase price by $1k each time a S204 is sold~
