Pre-purchase preparation

Verify before you pay

  • Anything over 112,500 km should ask at least 10% below the typical price (around S$199,900).

Negotiation levers

What to say to the dealer

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

  • These cars typically sit 86 days before selling — anything advertised over 45 days is ripe for a haggle. Counter 8-10% below asking.
  • Typical mileage for this car is 75,000 km. Anything over 97,500 km should be at least 10% under S$200k — point to the typical figure when you negotiate.
