Its not exactly not worth it to get this car. Pros and Cons.
$13k for 2 1/2 years means about $5.5k per year. that's alot, for a
old car, irregardless if its a levin. The market price for Truenos
and Levins in Singapore are set by the owners themselves. If not
for InitialD, these cars don't worth more than probably $1-2k above
paper, (depending on condition) JiaYong had his car at about $9k
above paper. And is deprec. at about almost $4k a year too. But at
least its renewable. Honestly because JiaYong probably isn't in
good terms with that Levin and gang, he is defensive with his
Trueno.
But if you really want a Levin, because its rare then it may be a
good choice. You can put yourself in a mind that this ride is only
for your next 2 1/2 years, and you can enjoy all you want, without
worrying about future maintaince. As long as the car still runs,
that's all it matters, because at the end of the day, the car will
be scrapped. Those whose car is to renewed after 10years, have to
maintain in good condition, so to be able to sell off in
future.
But bear in mind, you have to folk out $13k cash. Loan is quite
impossible.
Good luck, get what you think can bring joy that's worth your
money.
