The car is the car, the coe is something else. and the problem we hv is also we are not doing buyer bidding. We are still doing dealer bidding. And their mark up includes COE, ARF, Excise tax every damn thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see it differently. They are currently only clawing back those 5year ones. They might take a small percentage of the 10year coe but who knows, they can do what they want. No one to audit on the end also. so the effect might be limited. If you look at the car population in term of age. 5-8year old cars are the bumper crop of 80k units a year.

Jamesc Hypersonic November 9, 2023 Share November 9, 2023 Why people keep saying car dealers make a lot of money? Bankers don't make a lot of money? Doctors don't make a lot of money? Pilots don't make a lot of money? Ministers don't make a lot of money? Lawyers don't make a lot of money? Unless people mean all the above earn their money and car dealers don't deserve the money they make? 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
