How did you get $12.8k if it is $200-300/mth for 7 years?Originally posted by andros3110:I was going thru the classified, there were offers for second hand re-newed COE cars. I just couldn't believe the price stated. $200-300 per month for 7 yrs. Normal prevailing COE already cost about 20+K, aren't they selling the car below value? I thought it is a gimmick but when I call, I asked if there is any hidden cost or catch; None.
I know bcos new cars are selling cheap and it is affecting the second car dealers. But is it possible that they are willing to sell that low?
I hope someone can clear my doubts.
thanks.![]()
confirm until cannot confirm ............. i was also one of those "hopefuls", then learnt my lesson ............Originally posted by blowfish:so it a fake?
u bet...Originally posted by Troy437:I saw the ads too!
Tot is was a great deal to get a 93 Mitsubishi Colt at $12.8K with $188 monthly for 6 years with other stuff.
So its bluff one ah?
at least there is some gimmicks behind....Originally posted by Bloop...:They're all crooks!!! Not just secondhand dealers either; Take Mazda for example. How many times have you heard on the radio, "Mazda 2... No downpayment, only $300 a month!!!"
What they don't tell you is that it's only $300 for the first year, then it goes up to $800+ from the second year.
...of course once at the showroom, they'll tell you that you should know what! Not possible for no money down and only $300 a month! Same stupid tactics they'll all use. Make it seem that it's your own fault that you actually trusted their advertistments.

hey dude...i agree dat some of the prices quote r based on certainOriginally posted by RevX:dude some of the prices quoted are only 70% of the actual selling price of the car. Cos 70% is all u can get for a car loan for certain financing companies. To get a real idea of wat is close to the actual price, just do a simple calculation. Divide by 7 and multiply by 10.
