Spotted in Singapore, rare M3

ArieArie · 02-24-2018, 02:36 PM

M cars are rare in Singapore. If you can get them to bring in one for you, it would cost you SGD410,000 (~USD310,000).

I saw this one last week at the Tanglin Club parking.

BALLER! to own that in singapore...

HPIA4v2 · 02-24-2018, 08:08 PM

how about owning a Ferrari in Singapore then, bigger balls?

But this guy had smaller head than balls.

Good reason not to live in Singapore

The opposite of New Zealand where there are not many motor laws and taxes lol

Driving a BMW in Singapore is the equivalent if owning a McLaren in many countries

Overall things are more expensive here and any major mods needs certification

Only good thing is we seem to have a lot of rare car for our population

And that buys you the right to drive the car in Singapore for 10 years.
After 10 years you MUST sell it (and not in Singapore).

Well, any car is expensive in Singapore. Would you like to buy a Prius for 100K? It's a luxury to drive here. Most people just rely on public transportation.

not necessarily, you can renew it for another 5 years or 10 years, all you need to do it to renew the certificate of ownership. Else you sell/scrape the car and get a new one.

Wow.... that video gave me the chills!

HPIA4v2 · 03-27-2018, 11:34 AM

Sorry bro, I know that video is crazy shocking.
The dude was from mainland China, driving most likely drunk with his 20-yr old mistress as passenger. His wife was pregnant at the time. The dude was killed his mistress probably mimed for life.
Money buys you nice things but not common sense I guess.

hey we have a president who cheated with his mistress (a porn star) while his wife just gave birth to a baby boy; Not sure if he was drunk at the time though

Price is a function of location. It's like calling someone dumb to pay $2 million on a Manhattan condo when the same may cost $400K in Ft. Lauderdale.

But regardless of location, You're not likely to be a dumb mofo if you can afford to pay $310K for a car. Any car.

We had a president who sexually harassed young female interns right in the Oval Office! The "mainstream" media and his wife hardly even blinked an eye.
