being the one who always wakes up the latest, i was the first one awake this time…
woke up at 10am and both hui ge and nelson were still fast asleep. ended up waiting for them for sometime.
parked at the renault showroom since it was free and walked around the showrooms nearby.
took a look at the new wrx sti and it was damn cheap, around 100k for the sti model. should i trade in my renault for a wrx sti?
nah no way!
walked around till around noon before hui ge decided to call it a day and go back to the dealer he met in jurong point. i personally have this thing against parallel importers cause most of them tend to be dishonest, it’s like buying a handphone from a service provider or getting it from some ah beng shop.
kah motors was selling the honda jazz for almost 7k more than the shop selling at jurong point. i probably would have bought it directly from kah motors but hui ge felt that the 7k wasn’t worth paying so he ended up buying the car from the pasa malam.
difference between kah motors and parallel import…
kah motors
all 4 brakes are disc brakes
comes with steptronics
all colours same price
come with 15″ rims
coe 4 bids guaranteed
build-in reverse sensor
parallel import
only front 2 brakes are disc brakes
no steptronics
special colours need to top up
comes with 14″ rims
coe 6 bids not guaranteed
build-in reverse camera
build-in lcd screen
free spoiler
free 32″ lcd television
and yes, the same model from kah motors is $7k more.
his parents and sister came along later and they eventually ordered the car with a $1 deposit.
i only hope they will get the car within the 2 weeks as promised, otherwise they will probably have to wait for 9-10 months like andy.

Hi, I’m a reporter from TODAY, and I’m doing a follow-up story on $2 COEs. I’m trying to contact someone who bought a car over the weekend that just passed. Was wondering if you could put me in contact with your friend for a short phone interview? Dont’ have to reveal full name if he or she is uncomfortable. A reply by today would be great, if possible, thanks!
