Yes its called COE. Basically in Singapore. since its a small island the government has decided to limit the number of cars on the road. So you rules such as cars older than 10 years old needs to be scrapped (with exceptions of course) and to ensure there is a controlled number of cars on the road, they release COE's based on the availability of it. If there are a lot of cars on the road, you can end up paying around 50k-60k for the COE or even more. The cheapest recorded COE was SGD$0.50 if I am not mistaken. So depends on when you want to buy your car.

still, the mechanism acts like "human" controlled. who know, maybe the 50 cents COE are given by officials to his relatives. at least malaysian excise duty already fixed as %. heard that, the fees just for the processing. even if u pay, doesnt mean u gonna get that COE.

Xioncity, maybe u can propose COE for malaysia. whenever G short on money, just sells COE for RM 50k per piece. dun matter if wanna buy kancil/viva. whistling.gif . doesnt mean a thing even forte/inspira cos a mere RM 20k.

The mechanism for COE is via auction. So mainly the car dealerships are the ones who are auctioning for these COE because they can't sell cars without a COE unless you are getting a weekend car.

Are you also that blur here in Malaysia? Or version of COE is called AP
*
not blur lar. its actually more toward dont understand at all rclxms.gif . the fact remains, y bother comparing malaysia to singapore pricing when there's a variable/uncertain (COE) cost involve.

white forte + full bodykit is nice... thumbup.gif
my vote + purchase goes to inspira since forte manual 1.6 kinda small for a B segment car.

That is my point..there is someone really clever(sound ok?)just made conclusion inspira already win just based on this poll..that's why I just counter him forte already won if based on vote..eventhough inspira not in the list but it's against all the best car selected in msia..but nothing to shout about..it's just people choice..anyway that's a facts forte won Peole choice award officially in MALAYSIA and don't forget forte also won car of the year family sedan category in MALAYSIA.. rclxms.gif

no need to ask its ok or not lar. as long as u'r not calling others B***hurt etc. How low can u go just for a simple poll by TS wanting to ask opinion from lowyatian on whether he/she should get forte/inspira.

You're telling others not to shout but you yourself shouting to them... sweat.gif

its 6 speed auto BTw not manual, and its a C-Segment Car not B.

the new forte FL should be using the new GDI engine ler.. may be 1.6 but its more powerful then that 1.8 inspira plus more fuel efficient.
But what to do, our local fuel is not up to par with the engine. haihz..
kinda sad la.. lots of good engines cant make it to our country.
*
ahh..no wonder i buy inspira instead of forte. no matter how powerful the auto gearbox and engine. my ride will always be manual, unless manual tyranny is obsolete. doesnt feel like driving a car, when using auto....like a lazy old man (just my own opinion). shakehead.gif

1.8M? Nice buy there. More powerful then the 2.0CVT IMHO. not a big fan of CVT

last 3 days on my way back to penang from KL,
got this Red 1.8M inspira racing with white 2.0 GT.
Guess the LGT must have been jealous of the inspira lol,
i tried to follow behind. Damn the 1.8M was DAMN DAMN DAMN DAMN fast ler.

the LGT was trailing behind. I couldnt keep up with the inspira on the plus highway + heavy traffic.
The LGT then was gone..i was still a few cars behind, even Golf Mk 6 kene tapao by the inspira.

im not sure if he modded the car or what, but it was damn fast. puts the LGT to shame
*
maybe Golf MK 6 dont step on the pedal kao2?
how fast lar can go here, mine just got speedtrap for a mere 110 speeds. not only malaysia need a good grade of petrol/diesel. also a better speed limit. how come highway with only 90 km/h still exits. its a dual lane demmit. doh.gif

not that racing type, but...manual all the way for me. inspira is the only manual c-segment car right?
obvious choice for manual tyranny fetish like me nod.gif

duh...coz it links to a city?? like in penang, it link from sg dua to juru leh...in between, got butterworth, autocity lagi...
if u drive fast, those ppl coming out of those lane ma let u bang them mati?!
Wow. xion, u drive like that one arr? coming from the interconnection junction into highway straight go to the fast lane. no wonder malaysia got so many accident. i dunno what these kind of driver thinking. u should go into slow lane first, after gaining momentum and speed only go to the fast lane. shakehead.gif need to be carefull when a silver forte around, it can suddenly cut into fast lane without warning. sweat.gif

Come have a visit at plus sg Besi - Bangi highway. its 90 and w/o link here or there like penang. somemore, its 3 lane.

if u r not racing type, wat for u complain abt better spd limit?? u r no smarter than government. even at 110km/h, it's enuf 2 kill lots of ppl d...same goes with buses which runs at 90km/h...
but i do agree, malaysia seriously needs to get good grade of petrol/diesel....hopefully can get Euro5 or 6 type diesel and petrol, with RON99/1xx class, so can on par with the rest of the world...
if malaysia keeps on like that, i doubt they can import other cars, which requires RON99 above...
Believe me, i just put the 90kmph example here. there's so much more 60kmph signboard at the upgraded road especially East peninsular (pahang,terengganu, kelantan). the roads are already upgraded with ample road shoulder and u see those 60kmph here and there frequently. Just put 1 speedtrap officer there. practically issueing summons to every vehicle passing thru except local motorcycle.

speedtrap officer need to be replace with permanent camera especially at hotspot that really2 result to accident if speeding. and signboard should clearly remind the driver to slow down. nod.gif

90kmph limit and driving 100 - 110 is not much different. u wont even feel the different when driving forte/inspira. racing driver driving 110...what a joke. anybody can be F1 driver like that. whistling.gif
