Commenting on these COE results, Jason Lim, managing director for BMW authorised agent Eurokars Auto, told Motorist: "Increased COE supply definitely helped, it was welcome news. Also, in the few weeks after Cars@Expo, it was relatively quiet on the retail front. And then probably, consumers adopted a wait-and-see approach, to see where this COE price correction would go."
Nicholas Wong, general manager of Honda authorised agent Kah Motor, told Motorist: "COE prices are influenced by demand and supply. It took three 'doses' of COE supply adjustment, to get the COE in check. Because those COE prices were unrealistic, the bubble was building. Cat B had six rounds of increases. Cat A responded to the first two 'doses', but there wasn't any additional quota supply for Cat B at the time."
