Here in Singapore, everything that Apple does costs less than any car you could buy.

I know you're exaggerating because car prices in Singapore are very high (with good reason and kudos to the Singapore government for handling this well), but it's not true:

There are a bunch of second hand cars below 6000 Singapore Dollars on this website[1], which is the price of the 64GB/1TB Mac Studio[2].

You forgot one little thing that you need to buy a car, which is the Certificate of Entitlement that you need to own a car in Singapore.

So it is $6,000 (car) + $100,000 (CoE)

You are right in principle. However, CoE is actually a bit less expensive at the moment. See https://www.motorist.sg/coe-results

If you’re looking at second hand cars to make your point, shouldn’t you also look at second hand computers too?

Also why look at a mid tier upgrade spec when you’re looking at a bottom tier car?

Nah, my cheeky statement didn't talk specifically about new cars only. So it's only fair to look at second hand cars.

I was specifically talking about the most expensive Apple products vs the least expensive cars.
