bro alan
coe is indeed more expensive, but bueh song tcm for playing with us, so like to do some "homework" 1st before meeting them...
before y'day had short listed a few: airwave (i like but alot of taxi's are this), rush (wife likes), axio
y'day was looking at continental cars...some r out of reach tho :D
kinda impressed by safety features of renault megane (69k before negotiate), after seeing the papers on the family car crash, feel sad for the family :crycry: so now am also looking at features of NCAP 5 stars cars...
like the exterior of the peugeot 207 (74k before negotiatie) but interior quite basic
continental cars tho r usually less fuel economy which is a big thing on my list, latio is still a winner in this department and the latio interior is better as well.
will pm u when i arranged something with my SE
going back camp 2nite...sianz...out pro on tues
cheers

I think it depends on individual la, why bother what other people say? they are not in your position so is easy for them to commend, talk only wat, not their problem!

Just enjoy your ride!  :yehyeh:

Hi Andy,  Can share how much you were asked to top up?  With the top up, think you still pay much lower than the current selling price.  Which model is yours?

hi all,

despite we went down to complain to the sales manager, they are not doing or showing any effort to help us get our bid... that's disappointing!!

The result is, they bidded mine at 3:15pm (which abit too early!) at a price of a mere $12k+ (lower than what they bidded for me the last round i.e. abt $13.8k) Then they stopped trying as usual, thinking 1 bid they will get it for us... Does it show they are trying their best by placing a bid so early n not even bother to top up another $1 to increase chances?? (i'd experienced this for the 5th time!!)

The game i supposed they are playing for those who placed their orders back in feb where COE are at $12k, is to make them feel anxious and worried on the rise of COE prices. Therefore they will eventually top up... That's what i felt at least though it might be wrong... Tell me, if i am

Being in this automobile business, don't the management realise that price of COE is going to go up from end Jan when the news of cut of 10% ARF kicked in (where more pple will consider buying car) and later when the quota reduced announced by the govt? Don't they want to close a deal asap?

Whatever it is, Nissan has not shown professionalism in handling customers needs and giving their best for a satisfied customer.
This jus kills off another customer who is keen on getting a nissan car initially....

(i jus wish i knew the nissan jap head and let him know the situation TCM is handling, poorly)  :mad:

Hi Rodrigue

Understd ur anger...
Well, like many 5th timers, move on la...find another car. Forget TCM!
Initially, I oso thinking Airwave, Axio.. superd FC too & spacious but finally decided to
stick to current monster FC Tucson for another 1~2 yrs then c how.


So cheer up Bro!

Hi LP,
Good choice!
COE higher chance than TCM!! :yehyeh:

Wah! This means TCM bid very high for you.  This round COE so high.  Yours which model and cost you how much (nett of all discount)?  Is yours ex-stock promotion type?  If so, can get very soon.  But heard ex-stock colour limited liao.  So, what's your car colour?

for me & my wife in this unhappy situation coz we just not happy to top up to those tcm managment...with all the excuses and stories the SE,SM gave us and the limited power they have....somehow i pity SE & SM, they get whacked by angry customers like us, but can't do much at all, while the directors on top just sit there and collect fat cheques
i might just go back driving my jazz...or buy another car at a higher price...or 2nd hand latio...

Since yours not ex-stock, may have to wait.... they have some queueing system to allocate cars in their warehouse (unless the new stock already arrive and they din manage to secure coe to clear them).  Hence, should call your SE to find out.  The value of your car's paper value is the actual coe premium, not the bid amount.  No need to top up for you.

congrats gwen, tt means  u no need top up liao...good for u. top up normally happens when tcm lost bid, they will give u an option to secure open cat coe few months ago, which normally is lower then current coe. they will normally buy some open cat coe few months ago and use it for customers who are willing to top up, or had paid extra for guaranteed coe. e.g if coe this month is 16.9k, while when i sign the coe is 12k, tcm will ask me to top up at least 1k for open cat coe of 13.8k. Or this month is 16.9k coe, and uu paid for guranteed coe bid, they can also give u the open cat coe but without top up, since u already "top up" initially for the guaranteed coe
