800K wasnt too bad, i thought they're going to charge one million HKD close to the new 7er
I have read somewhere saying the real thing is much prettier than in the photo....

well, i dont like the "Angry big" looking front and X6 back anyway! :thumbsdown:
I love the x6
I think i might get 1 when the price comes down to about 200k.

lets hope so, bmw has the track record of their car looking much better in real life than on photo. interestingly, according to the paper, the 5gt is based on the 7er.
yes the 5gt is almost the same size as the 7er way too big for HK life

The front indeed looks like a 7er, but anything beyond the B pillar is surely not my cup of tea. Just wondering if any tuning house has already launched mod part for it.
yes they have 6 months ago but still can not make it look good.

yeah, you're all coming.

i don't like the E class now, had it for a day, its crap and in some lighting it looks like a mongrel cross
between a S and C class, yuck!!!!.

X5, they run out of stock, looks like China is the main destination
and so discounts are smaller.

u know what Capt Evil, i might even wait for the new 5, as mentioned its the same as the 7
but smaller with a better sculptered bonnet and wings, i just pray they change the rear lights.....

If we drive our car to the F10 launch, I think BMW will regret to ever stop e60 production.

judging by the size and $, i think it is targeted for a diff market segment.

and I hope the new 3 wont be the size of a 5!!

this car is useless in HK.
it is for ppl that will go big time shopping at garden centers or go sking or football matchs.
like every 1 say it just waste of time and money on this car :thumbsdown:

If I wait a big car to store stuff I get a big 7 seater.
