hi 520...
i did ask for it...unfortunately it wasnt approved by LTA (yet)...even the LED brake lightes were not approved last i checked....i was told that the singapore cars dun hv these....which is unfortunate.

by the way... the e46 series coupe/cab and e65 all in sg use LED brake lites don't they?
i think the active cruise control also not approved by LTA.
530i, did you order the jack for your spare tyre? how much are they?

my car is in PML today for the doors and steering problem, got a e39 520i rental car.... wow the steering become such a hard work and the accel pedal .. one got to step on it and it doesn't bounce back. Shoot! ..however the cabin is much much queiter without the door creaking compare with my e60.

how did you get all the extras FOC and lowest car purchase price some more?
no financing aka no commission to unload; all the options BMW AG price... etc. etc.. How did the sales gal do that for you? cutting into her sales comm?

btw.. with your e60 the fully loaded with options... does that reflect in the OMV? a few years down the road when you change car.. next lucky chap will be enjoying your car too without much premium. won't he?
cheers

Hi sg520i, I did not upgrade my rim but thinking of doing it now and trading in the old rim. How much does it cost to upgrade to 17 inch rim with normal tyres? I do not want run flat tyres as I think it is not cost effective nor necessary for a small country like Singapore.

Hi 530i, go and read today's New Paper. Very bad publicity for PML - I think the doctor who bought the 318i got suckered by the ex-sales girl of PML. Poor chap - can understand his frustration. Did you have the same encountered with PML in the past?
