Honda Fit (parallel import) - very economical car (yowetan's car).
However no spare tyre.
Honda Jazz is the original version and slightly more expensive, but very economical car (radha's wife's former car).

Maybe not next COE bidding as cars have been ordered prior to budget speech and dealer has to honour the guaranteed COE, unless buyer withdraws.

Perhaps :

Cat A = 40k
Cat B = 60k

Then 6 months later
Cat A = 20k
Cat B = 30k

as for yowetan's car, secret is dealers will knock off another $2000, if you opt for the version that doesn't come with side and rear view mirrors and another $1000 if you forgo the steering wheel

My father was a part time used car sales man many years ago, so I grew up with "many" cars.

That one is 1.5L.
1.3L Honda Jazz omv is below $20K.

**starrynight** · 27-02-13, 17:30

How about VW Jetta? Says here OMV is $19k to $21k. I'd suggest the VW Scirocco, but that costs more.

Which car would be best value for horsepower heh - my jazz is mod (max permissible legal extent) but there is a cap on how much u can mod for the car. Which of the above would be able to have best mod potential for horsepower and yet no cause a big dent in pocket ?

**sherlock** · 27-02-13, 18:30

Seems like Honda have pretty high OMV... for 1st timer, got for a reliable one like Toyota

**sherlock** · 27-02-13, 18:33

Anyway, the next bidding might not see a drastic drop as there should be some backlogs. The Apr bidding onwards will be the barometer for the next half of the year

Personally I think leave it stock is best. Cos the among spend on mod vs the gain ( be it fuel or power) don justify .

Ooops !

Out from the horses mouth is usually more accurate.
Thanks.

I got my info from http://www.onemotoring.com.sg/publis...ket_value.html

But they say "The OMV obtained serves as your reference only and may differ from the actual OMV of the car you wish to purchase.
