New cars registered as an OPC will enjoy:- An upfront rebate of $17,000 to be offset against the following items:(a) COE Quota Premium(b) Additional Registration Fee (ARF).The rebate is first offset against the COE premium payable. Any excess is then offset against the ARF payable.- A flat discount of $800 on annual road tax, subject to a minimum road tax payment of $50 per year. (The vehicle tax structure depends on the car's engine capacity. U can check out the LTA link here: Vehicle Tax Structure for Private Cars )Road tax for the OPC is payable every year. Before renewal, the OPC must be inspected by an authorised Inspection Centre to certify that the number plate has not been tampered with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OPC doesn't suit our needs. probably, OPC is good for people who only use the car on weekends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
