Guys

I have order a 530i last Saturday. It is HK$80,000 cheaper than the orginal laist price. It is because the car will be used during the coming EGA in Macau for important person's lim. Then it will be shipped back to HK. The car may run about few hundres KM.

BMW will make sure it is 100% a new car and registered previous owner is "zero"

Does it sound OK

It sounds like an excellent deal. However, I just bought one 2 weeks ago. To comfort myself, I don't think that they will not offer my favourite colour combination. What else I could do. The saving $80,000 can be used to change wheel and do some moderate modification.


By the way, are u the one play very good golf? Related to William or the one waiting for the GTI.

BMW HK (chaiwan centre). I hear you can also get the kit after market for a few k less. But their paint job may not be as perfect as BMW's.

Nice picture . Why don't u have the trunk lip? The package should include the trunk spoiler. The guy from BMW offers me to upgrade to a bigger trunk spoiler. I am considering but it may be too expensive.

Your carpark looks familiar. Are u living in Braemar Hill road area?

Yeah, it came with the spoiler but I didnt like the looks of it (looks very japanese). I gave it to the service manager (Im sure he sold it aftermarket...hehe).

Also, there is rim promotion from BMWHK that 19" ACS Type 4 @ $22000, 20" @$32000, not including tires and installation.? Is it a good deal?? I really like the 20" but afraid not suitable for HK's bumpy road.

Hi ben,

I am looking for the ACS Type IV wheels too. $22000 seems like a good deal, but I am also looking for the Type 135 18". If you know any good place to get it, let me know, or maybe we can come out and find it together.

I saw 2 5er with ACS body kit and rim last night, seems the ACS is more popular than M so far. FYR the newest issue of HK C&D has several ads of shops selling M kit which you may want to check.

Hi Mike
My car is quite new (3 months) so I may wait a little longer to change the rim with BMWHK as they are more reliable. Is 18" much better than 19" for HK road? I have 17" now so I really want bigger wheels instead of "just a little bit bigger". It's a good idea to come out and find the rims together, maybe get a cheaper price!

Hmmm....personally, I like the M kit more than ACS.

Used to have 18" ACS Type III on my E46, and the ride is acceptable in HK road condition. I am sure the E60 will be able to absorb the extra harshness when you install the 19" wheels. The E60 looks much better with the 19" wheels.

Pricewise, I think BMWHK offer the best bargain on ACS wheels/tyre package.
