Told you don't think so much already! Get back to your books! After reading through my simple math, you still don't get it. Out of the 1k I quote per month in my pervious posting, only 230 dollar is for the car price.

That car stated above, even with your 15k, you still need to top up 10k. meaning you will save S$80 per month. 920/3=306!!! Even if the car is free, you still have to cough out S$250 a month, just for that damn 2nd - hand car.

I don't know where did you get your 15k from, but that amount of money can last you on a 3-4months tour around Europe. Do yourself and your parents a favour, STOP dreaming. Talk about it after you serve your NS.

Bro, i think very unfair to compare car vs bike. here's why :

1) When raining - stop under bridge to put rain coats. if that day is having a hot date as a pillion and havent go dinner. good luck to you

2) When minor buang/accident - percentage of physical injury - bery bery high. , lets not talk about major buangs/accident. ok?

3) You just can't make out in the backseat of your bike. Twisted Evil

4) You can enjoy 'aircon' for that matter

5) You can't bloody hear each other when u don the helmet anyway even if the motor engine hasn't drown it all.

6) You can't carry a DIY cabinet at the back of your vehicle.

there... comparing apples to oranges. Mr. Green

But the thread starter commented about the public transport being expensive, so bike is also a solution for him.

With the amount of money you spend getting a car ..imho ..u can just about take a cab to school and back for the next two to three years. True?

ben0704 SG

very true. but the feeling of owning a car is different mah. wat kelviz wan is the feeling. right? Very Happy

ak0 SG

ya lo wan feeling go rent a car for a week... and understand wat a cOE feels like and also try pumping petrol with ur own money and also cashcard and coupon and other parking payment... for the experience and to ease the feeling i think can.
ease the feeling le, think abit read up more forum then make disicion... aniway is ur own money no one can say anithing abt u... dun force out a car then no money pay, thats the point when u kana all the lan jiao way liao

Lisa? familiar.. my friends seems to borrow from her too.

revvieeee SG

haha. agreed. especially those who drive and still have to ask for cigarettes from friends..

revvieeee SG

yea. its damn fun to drive friends out for lunch... i mean.. with a car.. who needs canteen food?

friends means - 2 guys + 3 girls / best still.. 1 guy + 4 girls.

You don't get to score or screw with an ESi (a COE car), for goodness sake! A Porsche or a Ferrari or even a Japanese sports car will get you under the skirt even if you look like langah face.

ben0704 SG

i prefer the latter one. 1 guy + 4 girls! Embarassed Mr. Green

In school, just take the public transport lah.. it is no possible to share it with friends… maybe with family but not with friends.. what if they think not to pay anymore… can you force them? Then since you are in school you dont have any income i suppose, how are you going to pay for the upkeep and installments.. if daddy is paying for you.. might as well ask daddy to buy you a new set of wheels… and if you think that aussie can own cars.. then go australia then… and pay their taxes… my 2 cents worth

LH83 SG

Eh... forget about getting the car lah... save your money, next time go out work then have enough to get a decent 1st hand car...

I was like you once... right after I got my license... wanted to get a 2nd hand evo... but thinking again, no use... the insurance, COE and tax will kill... not to mention your fuel and parking... plus any fines that you might have...

I did the math before... at least $1k for just a normal saloon car... provided you don't have any major accidents... you don't even have a stable income... how you going to cough up $1k a month?? Your $15k going to be blown on just the car alone... after that leh? No more money... car stuck in carpark to rot...

Even if your parents want to sponsor, help them save money... then next time can get a better car and you can bring them out for rides... They work so hard to provide for you... I stay in Bedok, go to NUS... I still take bus and MRT everyday... if I'm late, I take cab... but it's way cheaper than driving...

If I want the feeling of driving, I rent a car... managed to drive once a month last year, after I got my license... the feeling is just as good... plus no need worry about extra payments...

Only if you can say that you're earning 2k+ a month, then go get a car... less than that... dun bother... Singapore is one of the most expensive places to get a car... only 40 - 50% of the price is actually the car's...

You say Australia cars there are cheaper.. I agree... maybe you can take that 15k and go there study instead... then can drive whatever hot ride you want... Finish poly here and go overseas also not bad...
