    Hi Guys,

    I am out looking for a new subcompact Sedan car.
    I have compared the price of the car already and still cannot make a final decision
    Different dealers is giving me different set of freebies, to compare I want to have an idea or estimation what is the worth of each item.
    Baka pwede ko na ipagawa sa labas kung mas mura (without voiding the warranty).
    Hope you can help me. Please feel free to add other freebies na normally binibigay na wala sa list.

    FREE:
    -1 YEAR COMPREHENSIVE INSURANCE
    -3 YEARS LTO REGISTRATION
    -CHATTEL MORTGAGE FEE
    -SEAT COVER
    -CAR COVER
    -TINT
    -MATTINGS
    -EARLY WARNING DEVICE
    -1ST 1000KMS CHECK UP
    -1ST 10000KMS CHECK UP (LABOR ONLY)

    Thanks!

    imho, almost all dealers offer these as standard:

    a. tint
    b. registration
    c. insurance
    d. ewd

    seldom you can find the 1000 and 10000 km checkup as free.

    First two checkups/PMS usually free ang labor. Parts lang babayaran mo.

    EWD di lahat meron. Tint mas ok sa labas na lang makakapili ka pa ng brand and installer. Haggle mo na lang for something else.

    Walang payong?

    Can you give indicative price for each item? Estimate is fine.

    Yup, sa tingin ko nga EWD di lahat inooffer. Yan for example magkano ba yan?
    Para magkaidea ba tayo ng worth of each item for comparing purposes.

    EWD is around 600 sa Ace.

    Car cover 1k?

    Basic good tint will be around 3-5k for a small car.

    Standard issue seat cover madali lang mapunit yan. 1.5k ata sa Ace pero corduroy lang.

    Mattings depende kung manipis. May ibang brands na makapal. May iba din na isang taon lang butas na. 600-1k for generic plastic/rubber mat set.

    Insurance is computed from your car's value. Estimate 25k for a 700k car.

    LTO mga 10k good for 3 years.

    I assume you'll be financing the car since you're asking for the cost of chattel mortgage fee and since its part of the freebie, I assume na in house financing kayo sa dealer sir. If I were you, I'd shop around different banks for the best interest rates, mataas kasi ang interest kapag in house financing, I can safely say na yung mga freebies mo eh binayaran mo rin yan sa laki ng interest ng mga car dealers.

    Don't use the freebies as a measure on your choice on which car to buy, kung ung napili mong car ay hindi nagbigay ng freebies na gusto mo, e di bumili ka na lang.

    -SEAT COVER (depende sa quality, baka magsisis ka pag naluma na ito at hindi ka na comfortable, better buy ka na lang with a better quality)
    -CAR COVER (2 months ko lang ito nagamit, kasi pag nabasa ng ulan pansin ko lang pag tinatangal ko parang nagasgasan pa ung car ko)
    -TINT (piliin mo ung gusto mo talaga, kasi pag nag decide ka na palitan sayang lang at makalat pag tatangalin)
    -MATTINGS (bumili ako sa concord)
    -EARLY WARNING DEVICE (bumili na lang ako sa ACE)

    kung bibili ka sa labas hindi din naman ganun kamahal at makakapili ka pa.

    Ung iba sa list mo e talaga naman free yun sa mga bagong cars.


    ang bottom line, ung car ang piliin mo, kasi yan ang magtatagal sayo...

    Yes, i get your point totally.. i'm thinking about situation kasi na 2 dealers are offering different set of freebies, being all others equal.
    Kumbaga icing on the cake, so why not take advantage.
