New ruling to consider if u thinking of buyin new car.

Financing Scheme: (w.e.f today)
1. Cars with OMV at $20k & less
Maximum loan at 60% of vehicle price where loan tenure is 5yrs maximum.

2. Cars with OMV more than $20k
Maximum loan at 50% of vehicle price where loan tenure is 5yrs maximum.

Additional Registration Fee: (w.e.f March COE bid)
1. Cars with OMV at $20k & less
ARF maintains at current 100% of OMV.

2. Cars with OMV more than $20k
ARF is 140% on every incremental value above $20k until $49,999.

Anyone buying car soon???

Any idea if this extends to used cars as well? If it does, think a lot of the used car dealers gonna run into a lot of trouble.

There will be loopholes, especially on the loam amount. All that needs to be done is a little bit of number manipulating on the sales price or trade-in vehicle prices. The only thing that bites will be the 5 years loan term.

New and old cars are affected, sadly. Sad For those who owns a car now, enjoy it while it lasts. Mine still have about 5 years to go. Will take one year at a time. Rolling Eyes

It's kind of sad....1st was the COE and now this. It seems that indirectly, the govt is restricting people from driving into Malaysia in the long run. Imagine us golfers without cars and wanting to play in Malaysia.....now that is SAD! How about leasing a car, is it that expensive?

IMO, it's a good pre-emptive, forced, protective measure to prep for the upcoming rise in interest rates.

Assuming a basic japanese car right now... say Toyota vios at 130K.

you will need to cough out cash for 50% - 65K

your monthly installment (capped at 5 year tenure) would easily be $1200 per month.

i predicted 2 outcome:

1. drop in votes for ruling party in next GE. to me, this is rubbish countermeasure.

2. Drop in COE as consumers cannot afford high COE anymore but wonder if government want this to happen.

Normally new cars nowadays installment wise also have to be 1k+ isn't it?

I think that the difficult part would just be the initial down payment of 40% or 50% of the car price with COE.

So if can't fork that money out, don't need think of buying car.

Someone can set up at transportation business? From JB to sg to pick us singaporean golfers up. Machiam private taxi.

Even before this loan issue, the expectation of the ruling party loosing votes are already high. So, I assume with this issue this is going to be higher??

Let's try doing the math here.

S$15 per pax per 1 way trip. So a day from 1 flight is

$15 * 4(person) * 2(trips: to & fro) = S$120

1 month => 120*30days = S$3600

WAHhhh... that's quite a lot eh for just ferrying 1 flight per day eh.
