530i, just wondering, could you have waited till the beginning of April to register the car and get the ARF tax differential rebated? It's worth at least 12K man!

My cousin's 530i has actually arrived, but she's waiting till April 1st to register the car to get the tax rebate from PML.

I was at PML last Saturday to redeem my contract and get a $9K reduction in the price.

I'm now aiting for the reduction in options pricing to further redeem another approx $3K.

530i is now totoseow.

Hi thank to all for your collection advise.
Ok i went at 6pm...car was nice n clean...checked for dead pixels, chedked for door alignment and door creaks...there was a very very tiny alignment problem at the drivers side...barely noticeable..i decided to leave it till the first servicing...as the doors were not creaking.

ok next up was the boot...again no funny locking problem as were experienced by some of you. So i spent 40mins learning everything and remembering nothing...

driving experience was a bit strange...it was so quiet that i felt detached...not sure if its a good thing...i m used to revving engines till kingdom come...it keeps me focus on driving that way. So with a car this quiet, i wasnt really concentrating on the driving...

next up..i-drive...lets say i m terribly useless wif tech devices...and i mastered i-drive in 15 mins....so its a testament to the ease of use.

ok the PDC irritates me...and the active sterring is over assisting me when i turned up the ramp in my office....but its because i m used to turning more...shud be fine after awhile.

last of all...my door mirrors only fold in...it doesnt fold up...its that right? Also, when i turn on the auto lighting...its on all the time! even in bright daylight...the lights r on!...not sure if its the right button i hv pressed...any help there?

and once again thx for all ur insight...it helped me a lot when i was collecting the car.

pics will be up when i find out how to use my digital camera..haha...i m very tech unsavvy.
