diesel in malaysia TAK BOLEH!!!! long term use will cause engine to up lorry.
Gunners : Thank you for the suggestion. I actually find PIs' margins to be more obscene. Considering no investment in staff and infrastructure, no dealership loss to worry about and no effort required on principal management, their margin is more ridiculous.
I'd take a different view if their margin is like Cost + $20 000 (example) for high-end cars. But it's more like PML - $20 000 instead. The risk-reward just isn't there.
davidtch : I love Alpina, perhaps, as much as you. Unfortunately there's no authorised dealer and workshop to back them up. Before Munich Auto open, I was hoping they could franchise the brand too.
The other brand sorely lacking to me is Abarth.
Have a nice evening, gentlemen.

I agree self-import is ideal and it comes with challenges :
a. Finding a trusted dealer overseas.
b. Going through the administrative process yourself. I've absolutely no inclination for paper work.
One should be mindful of the trade-offs though.
For a typical salaried person with a growing family, the effort may cannibalise your focus on things with greater priority : building wealth and caring for a growing family.
These, amongst others like character development, should never be subservient to expendable toys.
Here's another view : use the money to get a property in another country. Rent it out. Buy your dream car there and in no time, your rental collection pays for your car.
Go enjoy your car now and then. Afterall, it's not everyday that you have an opportunity or need to drive flat-out.
Good night.
