For e.g. The Camry 2.4 cost about USD 72K at that time, now is maybe less... '04/'05 is not available in SG. I have the breakdown of the cost structure in my spreadsheet. Vincent | |

Friends: 1 | Is that just for cars? To keep people on the public transit rather than clogging the streets with 1 driver private cars? |

Friends: 23 | It's around 80-90¢/litre here (probably more nearer Toronto). And despite the higher prices, the Prius doesn't sell well? |

Friends: 1 | From what I gather in the other forum, they were put off by the high price upfront. It cost at least USD 15K more than a comparable size 1.5L like the Corolla. Petrol price is usually not a consideration during purchasing since they already paid so much for the car! They are less than willing to pay more to be green. Vincent |

Friends: 37 | Vincent, are you a native Brit or were you educated in Britain, or are you a native of Singapore? Just wondering.
