So you paid $53,300 nett?

That means your price before the $500 'Nissan Owner' discount is $53,800?

Seems quite expensive, as some people here have paid only $53,000 (no 'Nissan Owner' discount) for 4A/T and got free leather seats, sports rims, DS3 body kit, window tinting, fog lamps and window tinting.

My Se even told me...53.5k is exclusive of sports rim n leather seats.....only free DS3...so give me sports rim n leather seats ...still charge me 53.5k....anyway...they all out to earn one...we want to buy... wat to do now

They are trying to clear stocks of their old pre facelift model.

It is normal practise to give more freebies to entice the customer to bite, in order for them to get rid of their 1 yr old stocks sitting idle in the warehouse.

If these 1 yr old stocks cannot be cleared, they will even suffer more losses in having to give more discounts later.

Look at those *YOM2006 Honda Accords still sitting in the warehouse and the HUGE discounts Kah Motors is giving to clear these old stocks. Makes these Accords an even better deal than the Cefiro or Teana. These Accords come with 5 speed auto, unlike the Cefiro / Teana's outdated 4 speed auto.

*YOM = Year Of manufacture

Cos me n my fren got the car together, thus bargained for it....we paid 53.3k....not really that good deal rite...since u got it for 53K nett...anyway...if urs can be cancelled...might as well do it..since $80 can get liao.....the more we discuss the freebies..the more sian u might become....I dun even have foglight.... :nonod:


So did you and your friend get your COEs?

I think very  high chance you got your COE as it dropped to $12,501.

Only thing is that those who got COE this time round lose out in terms of having a lower car value as their COE is $12,501, compared to someone who secured their COE at the June 1st bidding who got their COE at $15.500+ and paid same price for Latio.

Overnight lost $3,000 in COE value. But that's life in buying a car in S'pore.

Just enjoy your new ride and congrats!   ;D

My SE also told me COE going to raise, and after I ordered, COE also dropped.

All sales people will telll you the same story and pressure you to buy.

Next thing your SE will tell you is to "hurry to buy as COE quota from September is going to be reduced, so COE will shoot up."

You think COE prices will shoot up when jobless rate is at its peak, share prices are at rock bottom, and recession is coming very soon in the next few months?   :nonod:

Pre facelift Latio prices dropped by $1,000.

It's now only $52,000.   :excl:

Imagine what I could have done with $1,000.

When I went to view Latio, my SE told me very limited stocks left for YOM2007 stocks, but now still left so many stocks left even after 2 months.   :confused1:

SE also told me COE prices will go up as quote will be reduced in September.

But COE prices kept a downward trend since I booked my Latio.

SE words cannot believe.   :nonod:

Hi all,

Just joined this forum not long ago as I'm considering Nissan Latio.

According to LTA website (http://app.lta.gov.sg/corp_press_content.asp?start=1898), "The next mid-quota year review to adjust the COE quota will be conducted in October 2008, so as to better meet demand for replacement of vehicles that are de-registered during the calendar year and minimise the adjustment factor that has to be made to the following year
