  i would think that if u earn ard 2.6 to 3k and dun have much family commitment, it's quite comfortable to own a pretty decent Jap car.

  actually is no need to be rich to own vehicle in sg lah..is jus hv to be either
  >can earn enough
  >save on others, pay the vehicle nia..
  >see whether u feel its worth it or not.
  
  Normal average is i estimate
  > installment > bout 700-800
  > oil > bout 300 & up
  > parking > 75 or 90
  
  Provided is u dun count the insurance...rd tax...how much u down for the vehicle.
  
  Other then that is ask parents pay...
  
  Or..its jus family very rich.
  
  Or..another way is get a car but registered under company name...
  
  Thats bout it nia..

  dun be tempted just because the COE is all time low.
  
  look at the long run instead. the interest rates will add up to a subsquent amount, even if you think its nothing at about 3%.
  
  theres alot of hidden costs (maintainance, summons, petrol,parkings, insurance, road tax etc)
  
  you dont have to be very rich. u can probably afford a car if u eat grass everyday.

  You should rub shoulders with LJ SEI and PHILIA Son OAG as well as t3rOK. Don't need earn anything at all. Can get FREE rides from MRT to meetup places too.
