Smokemachine Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Does anyone know is there difference in the pricing when come to buy different color of the car? I heard white color in Thailand is cost higher. Is it the same in new car? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffreyMcCollum Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Most new cars use a pearl white color that is much more expensive to make. I have notice a 7000 - 20,000 Baht extra charge depending on model But I also note it is the biggest seller with longer waiting times to get one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MediumPaceBowler Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Most new cars use a pearl white color that is much more expensive to make. Cars come in a whole range of colors. Black; silver; white; red; blue; etc, etc. My current (new) car is white. The price I paid was the same as for any other color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funcat Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 When you buy a Vigo,they will give you 5000 baht discount for the white color...but it's not a pearl white,just simple white... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigJohnnyBKK Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 It's simple supply and demand and varies from model to model, year to year. There isn't an appreciable difference in the mfg cost at the factory, but they can't predict with perfect accuracy and end up having too many of some color and not enough of others, and that affects the pricing.

Mobi Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 When I was looking at SUV's and pick-ups a few months back, virtually every manufacturer charged an extra 20K for pearl white, which I subsequently paid for my Mitzu Triton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

max108 Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Has anyone test driven the new 2012 Nissan Almera. It looks like a good runner and specs look good too. Anyone know the waiting time. I,m out of the country for a few month but am in the market for a new small car when I return . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaustev Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 It was at one stage quoted as 15,000 baht extra for the Pearl White for the Mitsu PJS and I believe the same applied for the She-RV (CRV). Not sure if that is still the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
