Made this today. It’s supposed to be a joke on how prohibitively expensive car ownership in Singapore can be.

I moved from Houston :)
Yes, I was trying to sell my IS. I got into an accident right before I was going to sell it...2 weeks before my flight :( I had a buyer lined up and everything. So then, I had to get some things fixed and my mechanic finally ended up buying it. I lost a bunch of money and got really stressed out. But I managed to sell it before I left...

I only need to get used to how expensive it is and all the walking. I’m so used to driving everywhere :(

Why’d you move there?
Also, no, but why do you ask?

I had to. Immigration in the US didn’t work out and I got a job here with a possibility to go back to the US.
I went out to get a few drinks. I thought if you were going out too, we could meet up or something...

Hahaha, I live in New York... My Singapore posts must’ve confused you! I have relatives who live in Malaysia, and therefore I’ve been to Singapore “on holiday” :)

Do you plan to purchase a car there? Or is it too prohibitively expensive?

I don’t plan on buying a car here. The license to buy a car (called COE) is like SG$70,000. So even a shitty corolla would cost me SG$100,000. And the COE expires every 10 years. If you want to keep your car from being crushed, you have to pay up again. Or sell it.

Yep. My parents have a friend who spent almost $80,000 SGD for a COE for a used 5-Series, but it expired last year. They upgraded to a Benz... who wonders how much that would cost.

Nah... she didn’t tell us which model, so we’re presuming base C-Class.
Yo, have you had some of the food? It's basically Malay cuisine, it's good.

Nice.
I have a place to recommend you: Tian Tian Hainanese Chicken Rice. It’s been a favorite of world-famous chefs—sadly this causes it to attract a few tourists. Still, the Hainanese Chicken Rice there is some of the best I’ve had in a while.
Oh, and lines are long.

It’s in the Maxwell Food Centre, that’s all that comes to mind.
You could search it up on Google, see if that helps.
