Lol. Yeah perhaps so. Anyway i would choose 630ci over CLS350. Merc always has problem when they published a new car. and 6-series looks much more elegant.

But E60 also has lots of problems in the first year ... Audi also has that "tradition".

I doubt u can order it as i heard there will be only 4 630ci in Singapore for year 2005. BMW does not produce many 630ci as it is the first year of production. Singapore is only given 5 cars in total. 4 for sales and 1 for test-drive. My dad is lucky enough to be one of the 4 owners of 630ci =)

Just called my sales rep, they are taking order for the 630i, options is not so good on the 630i.
guess your the sales rep might have bluffed your dad to sign the dotted line by saying there are only 5 piece of 630i in sg. so hurry...!
never trust car salesman!

anyway i am in the bay area for couple of days already... darn haven't even seen any sign on e60 here! is it so rare still?

took a spin in a friend's Nissan 350Z.. impressive!

M-trois,

Notice you have Glare done on your car. Does it really work?

TIA.

I'm very happy with it. I got it done the very day i collected the car. I also had it done on my MB W211 E200k and the old E46. They will take a meter and measure the 'glossiness/health' of your paint and show you the difference after they have finished. I've seen some beat up cars restored to showroom condition. It's damn damn glossy. Especially apparent on darker coloured cars.

It's also good when i need to clean off any road tar or bird droppings, they come right off, no stickiness. It helps to protect the paintwork, so no worries of the ultraviolet rays from the sun oxidising the paint!

my idrive control LCD display just went blank today half way along braddell road. it came on once more & called it a day. of course the PDC will not sound or display the visuals & the CD/FM/HU is also dead.

anyone had this problem?
