Car pricing on sgcarmart and actual dealer pricing?

[Forte3737]

Based on sgcarmart, used camry (05-06 registration) is about 13k.

 

So Jap vs Continent is

24690 vs 21346.42

 

So continent is cheaper contrary to what some people feel.

 

 

 

Ideas form beliefs,

Beliefs give hopes,

Hopes produce irrationalities.

 

 

Total insanity for those buying 2nd hand cars, while waiting for coe to fall.they are just letting car dealers chop carrot.

Can someone explain how this pricing works?

 

The PARF for this is about $15k.

The body value max is about 5k.

 

Why is the seller selling at 49k?

Even if he sells it at 10k discount, the car will still cost 39k.

 

Am I missing something here?

Maybe the plate?

I don't think its the plate.

 

I notice this for many cars that are expiring in a month or so.

 

So that's why I am asking if I am missing anything here

extended COE price lah...

but the coe hasn't been extended yet

This shop is famous for COE renewal cars. Their prices include COE for 5 years.

COE hasn't been extended yet cause there are no buyer yet, in worse case, they can scrap and get the parf.

If they want to include 5 year COE in the price, they shld have stated it as we shouldn't assume. So this advert is misleading to say the least.

One more month left, who would buy? Of course quote price based on extended COE lah.

I thought they did in the adverts?

I went down to see as I was looking for these cars (going to scrap, renew 5 years COE) in last Dec.

 

I haven see used cars section since Feb after I decided to get new one instead.

The link didn't mention anything about extended COE.

He is not selling a car, instead he is selling a 26 year old license plate number .

Camry depreciation on used car market is closer to 13-14k...last time I trade-in mine at 8.5 years, only paper plus 1.5k.

Yup - in that order of magnitude lah.

Trade-in quotes from used car dealers (for a typical B&B car) from my personal experience, as follows:

- 6 year old: paper + $10K

- 7 year old: paper + $5K

- 8 year old: paper + $1.5K
