The people who started this whole mess should be in here with Shumi, I saw this nonsense in the sales thread and followed it here.

Another very important point. BEAUTY IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER! There are a lot of watches I don't find attractive but its not my business to tell people their watch looks like sheet or they are stupid to spend so much money ! Its what they like and its thier money.

I happen to like my Dodge Durango, My Friend has a Chevy Tahoe... I don't like it at all. Would I ever tell him his car is boring and ugly..Hell no, NEVER.

So true, bashing people because of taste isn't OK. How you could drive a Dodge though [MENTION=82129]Thrasher[/MENTION] is beyond me.... ;)

I have good taste that's how! I also like Volkswagen, Audi, Isuzu, Jaguar, Mercedes, Old Dodge muscle cars in crazy colors, Honda, Triumph, Alpha Romeo, Fiat (Not the new ones, well maybe just a little) Tesla, Jeep, BMW, Porsche, I probably should just list the cars I don't like!

If anyone has a 1968 Ford Mustang GT 390 S code fastback in highland green I can help you by removing it from your property at no charge to you! Please PM me, I'm here to help.

Try living here. Motorists are highly penalised in terms of road tax, Vrt, Vat, insurance and fuel tax. Also you would not believe the price of vehicles here (take UK prices and multiply by 1.5 to 2) the beauty of living in a small country with a low population lol. Nice cars are rare so you pay a premium. Actually anything over 2litre costs you in terms if price and tax. Count your lucky stars lol.

Lol you guys take a queue number.
We pay more than USD$35k for a license to own a car for ten years then we slap on the price of a car. A Toyota here costs USD$75k to have on the road! And that's to own it for 10 years! On top of that we have road tax, daily zonal taxing system and pump prices that have dropped less than 10% since oil fell from $100bbl to $30bbl!

I am just amazed anytime I am in the US and see the forecourt prices then the pump prices. I nearly want to move there. Then I remember I really would not leave here for anything although 6 months in the South of France would be nice :) I could live without the rain for a little while lol

What kind of Toyota, a Yaris or a maxed out Land Cruiser Invincible? The latter costs about 80k here as well.

Entry level dude.
But don't take my word for it:
Here's a second hand (almost a year old) Land Cruiser (not invincible, nor maxed out) for sale - obviously some small bargaining possible but not by much. FX rates are about $USD1:$SGD1.43 at the moment.

Still almost USD$185k

Lol [MENTION=64642]aflop[/MENTION] that massy was an embarrassment.. all show but no go.
I am now driving something that has all the go but very little show, and its the way I like it.
Your ride, on the other hand, is part of the Singapore success story.

Move to the good old USA, I bought a 2013 Durango R/T AWD new in 2013 prior to that I had a 2000 Durango SRT? 4X4 and I think this years registration on the 2013 was like $335.00 , My wifes cousins were over from France last summer and couldnt believe all the big SUVs and nice cars in general... My answer.. Its Southern California its a Car Culture. But really You guys in Europe and I guess elsewhere are getting screwed. I remember when my Wife and I were first married I was looking at a Jaguar in Paris that was $20,000 more than the same exact model in Southern California.... Its cheaper to get the car to Paris than to Los Angeles, Maybe the VAT was already added but still it was a $40,000 car for $60,000 give me a break F ing government rip off.
