Hahaha! Don’t like that leh. A lot of ppl will be upset leh. I also upset leh. Hahaha

First bidding round with reduced quota (as compared to last 2 rounds), so I say UP.

Subsequent rounds, with same quota as this upcoming round, I say DOWN, unless vaccine successful 😊

[Philipkee]

I think it will go down this time.  And it will be a downtrend until either a vaccine is up or retrenchment slow.

[Timon]

I think that Cat A will be slightly lower by 1-2k, Cat B will hold.

You will be surprised 😅

My thought is that the recession is currently hitting mainly the tourism, entertainment and F&B. Majority of our workforce in banking & finance, manufacturing and civil services are still holding well. Unemployment rate is at 2.4%. Although there is still an uncertain time... to some people that is still holding a job, car is a necessity / essential as commented in one report.

Based on the last 2 rounds of bid in July, there are obviously a demand.... probably due to the promotion that car dealers are throwing in. You can even own a car just by paying interest only for the first 2 years. Car dealers throwing in zero downpayment. As @yishunitementioned, some people will feel this is the best time to buy and with some of the above baits... not surprised that people is jumping or have jumped in.

I believe there are still backlog accumulated during the CB period.... some of those buyers will top up for guaranteed COE. This effect at least hold on the current COE price or causing a slight increase in prices. 

We shall see on coming Wednesday..... Hopefully, I am wrong.

You go see showrooms, still full and test drives aplenty despite CB promotions gone. Many people still have yet to even have a chance to bid. Up, up, up and awayyyyyyyy!

This recession is the perfect storm - all the thunder and lightning but no rain.

Until the rain comes and people take out their umbrella 

then we will see less people buying cars.

If not I also say now is the best time to

Buy buy buy bye bye
