Damn, I booked on last year October and got nothing... grrrrr...

wah really no organize... some book early never get, some book later but getting b4 CNY

asimo bro u book sedan also? red colour?

it could be due to insufficient units in the colour u want

unlike me i told my SA any colour

yeah, "soulless" red.

no wonder, u probably would have gotten if maybe white :/

its a possibility the didnt bring any red sedan in other than that diesel test model

anyone can help? i want to buy number plate too

Still waiting for my SA to confirm delivery date for M2 sedan white. I'm from Penang. Hopefully will get the car before GST implementation.

Just wondering if we can install proper DRL (eg: Philips' 12825WLEDX1) in consideration of iStop feature in M2. How about installation of 4300k HID? Nowadays a lot of cars are bundled with 4300k HID, hopefully won't attract unwanted troubles.

ya like JPJ stopping u

if i change the bulb also probably to white halogen type from PIAA only

farmcow and pizzy, u only need to bring ur IC, if i remember correctly

do note this new JPJ rule, the reg number will only last 2 months, last time can extend by just paying RM10, but seems starting this year , to extend is RM210

Hi guys,

I'm almost certain to get this Mazda 2. Still considering though..But I have a good question for you guys.

What are the impacts of the GST for new car price like this Mazda 2? Will it go up? Will it go down? Not only car price, how about insurance and bank interest rate for hire purchase?

For car price, a little reading shows that it will go down since current tax SST is 10% and GST only 6%..but in reality [read: Honda statement] said will go down about 1-2% only. I can't trust SA statement since they only looking for sales.

What worry me most is the interest rate..any rumour or statement from banks or Bank Negara?

I'm not desperately need the car now. I can wait. But the question will it worth? If the impact is severe (price up), I will certainly book my car now. I'm looking at this from a rationale perspective.

actually i dun think the price will reduce, even after removing the sales tax 10%

because the sales tax currently is charged only 1 time, at the point of sale of the car to us buyers

BUT GST is charged all along the line, from the moment the car reaches port klang till it reaches our hand, so how many % is that already?

not to mention if we add on other stuff like tinting and coating, all will be charged additional 6% now

That's why I said it won't have simple calculation 10-6=4. The impact will still be there.

Sun Daily
The Star

2 news sources said different thing.

SST: final car price + 10% tax
GST: final car price + 6% tax

But final car price for both calculation will be different. GST final price will be higher due to higher supply chain price.

more like

SST: final car price + 10% tax
GST: final car price + 6% * X tax, where X equals the supply chain

Our authority is not able to give a clear indication whether or not it will be cheaper or vice vesa. Just follow your heart for the decision.

On the supply chain, it will be minimum impact due to CBU model? Because parts' supply chain does not being calculated into the gst calculation, am I right? The only thing gst taxable along the supply chain in my opinion is the logistic cost only..

so if thats the case, CKD gets more taxed by GST then CBU.. lolz

How does GST affect the computation for car pricing (i.e: OMV)?

Ans:

Local cars
Open market value + excise duty + GST (6%)

Imported cars
Transaction value + import duty + excise duty + GST (6%)

----------

CKD cars subjected to GST along the part's supply chain = open market value
CBU cars does not, only final price once the car leaves the factory = transaction value

----------

Sorry for hijacking this thread for GST issue..LOL. but i guess it is related, isn't it?
