You do know they are called Authorized Distributors right? By right they can don't offer warranty one

 

[singed]

Declare lower omv.
Maybe bring in lower spec.

Ad mark up alot

 

[LoUsyGamER]

Your warranty, plus a lot of labour cost, big buildings and etc.

 

[ksapple]

when u working

u gt ask what the diff between you and some freelance guy anot ?

Always buy new car from AD

You buy from PI, high risk of losing your money if they close shop run away. Quite a few cases already.

PI for honda cars are laughing all the way to the bank.....1 eg honda vezel

 

[charsiewfan]

Different spec and also different profit margin. Best car to buy is Tesla actually, just direct factory price (excluding excise and coe)

 

[swenson]

AD have high high high profit margin, esp branded conti ones

Go ask ChatGPT how much does it cost to bring in a car to singapore
Use OMV S$35,000 as a gauge
(you can compare Camry hybrid 2.5 vs a BMW 216i Gran coupe, both are about the same OMV value)
See their selling price when new, and see whether Jap car or conti car AD make more

Then compare the AD vs PI. Both should be around same OMV

 

[enimen]

Also, PI who are scams will lure u in with cheap price then run away once get your money

Buy from PI is the same as buying phone from Mobile Air.

Think AD is like u buy samsung phone from Samsung singapore, have warranty.
U buy PI is like u buy samsung phone from samsung malaysia, same thing, but no warranty. Anyway, we pay like close to 200k for a car, dont save this type of $
Rather pay abit more than at night can sleep more shiok

Warranty support and aftersales!

It is a huge thing !

If you buy from PI... After deal is done you're basically on your own for the repairs.

The most the will do is to recommend you to their workshops.
