Pre-purchase preparation

Verify before you pay

Things to check at viewing — if any fire, treat them as negotiation leverage or as walk-away signals.

  • Anything over 234,000 km should ask at least 10% below the typical price (around S$52,800).

Negotiation levers

What to say to the dealer

Cohort + market signals you can cite in person to bring the asking price down.

  • Plenty of this trim around right now — pull up two others from the same year on your phone and quote them. Sellers cave when you show a like-for-like cheaper car.
  • Typical mileage for this car is 156,000 km. Anything over 202,800 km should be at least 10% under S$53k — point to the typical figure when you negotiate.
  • Cat B COE is up ~5% QoQ. Sellers may hold firm — move quickly if this is the trim.
