OK, let's just settle on the Ocean Terminal roof top parking (unless someone confirms there is still construction going on and the roof top is closed).? As to time, is 11:30am ok with everyone?? All those who wish to attend, please kindly drop a note here to say "I confirm" la....?

In anycase, I'll check out the OT roof top today to see if it's open, will let you guys know, stay tuned.

[/quote]I paid HK$12K for the 122 8J x 17 wheels with 245/45 R17 runflat tyres, these were brand new 122, 8J x 17 wheels with 245/45 R17 runflat tyres today from a 530i, my sales person got them for me personally, he told me a guy bought a 530i upgraded his wheels to 245/35 R18... he can sell the set to me @ HK$12K
I guess he now has a set of R16 from mine for sales Ask your sales person if you wish to upgrade you tyres
they always have brand new trade-in...I told him to De-badge the 523i

[/quote]Just wonder if your Sales person is the same as mine. When I first got my car, I asked him to find me a set of wheels from the 530/545 for me, and 2 months later, he told me one of his customer will have a 530i by the end of August, and he will be taking off the wheel and get a 19" ACS wheel upgrade. He said he will be selling it for around $10k. I was tempted to take the offer, but after talking to a few friends, price seems to be kind of high for stock wheels. So I rejected his offer.
In the wheel shops, they are taking back the tyre/wheels for around $4000-$5000, so the Sales in fact had a profit of around $5000, that's more than he can make for selling a car.
In fact, later when I get my own wheel upgrade in Mong Kok, it turns out to be the same shop where my Sales is dealing with. What a small world, so I know for sure they are ripping of their own customers.
