Where I work, some people change their rides every 2 years. I was thinking, ang dami naman pera nitong mga ito. Yung pala, they have the car financed & when the time comes that they sell it, buyer just pays them the down payment they paid for the car & assumes the balance.

Every 4 years in my case. Yung pinagbilihan ko ng car yun din ang down payment ko sa next car. So if I sell the car at 50-60% of its brand new price yun din ang down payment ko sa replacement nya. Halos parehas din kasi kung tutuusin, mabilis na ang depreciation after the first 3 years and you will lose almost the same amount of money (adjusted to inflation) if you keep the car as against buying a new one and paying amortization on it. The argument against this is of course is if you don't buy a new one then you can always save the money instead in the bank. But then as I said you lose later when you sell that car for only 20% of its original value. Since I meet my savings goal naman then I just allow myself this luxury of having a new car every 4 years.
The only time I put a 20% down is if it is a totally new purchase, like dati 2 cars lang nagdagdag ako ng isa. But now I am going to sell 2 and get 1, minimal money out na ko sa replacement car.

September 16th, 2015 10:35 AM #44one possibility is... all those everests are/were loaned by just one entity.. fleet service siguro.. then something happened, and company decided to give up the vehicles in one fell swoop.
besides, those vehicles are so ... large... they easily stand out in the crowd of smaller vehicles.. baka naman they only look more plentiful than they actually were..

well, i was warned.
so i settled for a used car.
but that car was a headache.., even as it did cost cheaper than a new car, considering the fixin's i spent on..
i should have gotten the VW instead.. at least that one, we could DIY..
oh well...Last edited by dr. d; September 16th, 2015 at 01:04 PM.

September 16th, 2015 01:25 PM #49Almost got hooked a few years back, 99k All in DP at 33k a month for 60 months. Buti na lang tinamad ako bumalik para magpasa ng requirements.
When I started lurking at tsikot, got some reality check na masyadong mabigat at 33k a month for the next 5 years. Decided to save for a couple more of years before I made my purchase. It was worth the wait. It was still a risk, but a more calculated one.

I recently applied for a new loan( well a few months ago to be precise) just finished paying my last loan which is due this august, pero i paid up earlier, like june, whilst doing some window shopping for a new car i was already approved in 3 banks, i was waiting for a promo which metrobank usually gives mid year, its their " no chattel, free one year insurance " promo, which saves me around 80k in fees, then a friend from security bank told me they also have the same promo, sent my requirements via email, within 2hrs i was being C.I-ed, the following day i was approved, on top of that, subaru had a mid year discount of 80k on forester 2.0xt(they have a minor change on their units, like shark fin antenne, avt HU, well who needs an antenne, im ok with a HK HU), asked for a qoute, then showed it to another dealer, then another one, until someone gave a discount of 120k...so all in all, i saved 200k , btw downpayment is 50%... Paying roughly only 18k a month, moral of the story is its all bout timing( dont buy a car on january, do so pag enrollment period) and do haggle, dont decide when emotions are high, lalo na after a test drive, do the math and make a large downpayment if possible.
