hi guys,
i got few friends who r studying in japan, and finished 1st half of next year...
since they could not afford to buy a car, the asked me, to ask, to sell their student AP,anyone interested i can give email address and discus with them directly..
since u all know, the title of the car cant be change for 2 years (it means legal owner(AP holder name) n actual owner is a diffrent guy)

AP holder will not gain any tax exemption or special discount whatsoever, they onli hav the permit to import a car into Malaysia.
party interested need to have ready money for:
Car cost + transportation cost + Custom's tax + AP price.

yup, around that price, it oso inclusive with service charge + documentation management
(translation of title,custom japan clearance, forwarding the car to port and etc)

bro how bout cars that more than 16years old?
such as Honda NSX 1991, is there will be no custom tax at all??
since the "custom value to be tax" is = rm0.00
is it possible?

yes ur right bro,there will be no zero tax.
is there any links that i can find a custom's docket price for car from japan?
Custom said they refer to the "Japanese Motor Vehicle Guidebook" for docket price. any link or reference?
i adi email the custom officer, he said the depreciation is - 70%(first 6 years) - 10% (every 1 year, subsequent year).
example:
a 10 years old car, docket price of rm150,000 (example)
150,000 (docket price) - 15% (trade discount) - 70% (first 6 years depreciation) - 10% - 10% -10% - 10% (depreciation for subsequent 4 years) = FOB, am i right?

bro u pernah import car into Malaysia?
they say we can apply for rayuan at pengarah kastam negeri for more discount on the total tax, is it true?

any idea where to get kastam's docket price?

list is incomplete, and outdated...

what car (estimating custom's doket price) & the car is what year (to calculate depreciation)? this two info is really important.. to calculate tax...

let say:
custom doket is rm210k (dunno the actual custom price)
car age is 4/09-12/10 (20month@35% depreciation)
engine cc is 1998 (80% eksais tax) if 2000 and above aksais tax will be 90%...
ur tax will be around RM150k...

let say:
doket price is similar if the car is new...
car cost rm170k
tax rm150k~
roadtax rm3xx~
insurance depend on u la...

@sue22
there u go, the custom docket price should be around similar with the retail price... for confirmation on docket price u can email the custom officer involve directly..

docket price - 15% (trade tax) - 70% depreciation(2/04 to 02/11 = 7yr) = FOB

FOB x (exchange rate =3) + insurance cost (vary) + freight cost (vary) = CIF

import tax = CIF x 30%
eksais tax = (CIF+import tax) x 75% (gen car + <1500cc)
other tax = (CIF+import tax + eksais tax) x 10%

Total tax (need topay to custom)= import +eksais + other tax..

im planning on bringing back a 370z early next year...
using my lil bro AP, let see how it goes...

having cable for the discount by Pengarah Kastam maybe not such a bad thing though...
Super Saver...

there is a loop hole here... some freight companies will handle the documentation (ownership of the car),
therefore it can be change... many my lil bro senior, buy the cars few weeks before graduating...
as long in the documentation stated the ownership adi more than 9month.. get what i mean??

yup will certainly do...
to maximize depreciation of the car value(tax)...

@BeastX
im targeting 370z ST version...
when at custom Malaysia, will it be recognize as normal 370z or 370z ST version?
since there is a different of around 600k yen for the retail price(docket price)..
or it depend on the documentation since the only different is the accessory included..

thanks.... it seems oso luck is so important... hehehe...
the depreciation is start from the manufacturing month n year to the date the car is declared to custom right?

cant, bcoz when u apply ap at MITI need evidence of the country u stayed in..

bro if u want Japan student ap, got few of my fren wanna let it go..

tax should be around rm220k~240k...
i use rm350k as doket, 60% depreciation (4yr++)

still can be cheaper...

no such thing...
doket price is the price to calculate tax, it is based on the selling price of the car if new..
since cls in malaysia cost around rm700k~, so i assumed the doket price is around rm350k~
the eksais duty is the highest tax of all, since the car is >3000cc it is 105%..
