Re: F10 Launch

about 50k therabouts

like that means their profit margin higher than E class liao. end of the day between E class and F10 buying price is about the same for consumers. merc pay higher taxes though due to higher OMV

distributors pay duty taxes and its computed from the OMV. how many % iam not too sure.

Re: F10 Launch

Now the Euro very low, could be a factor to the low OMV.

Re: F10 Launch

Just saw from one motoring, seems like:
523 omv ~40k,
523 highline ~45k,
535 ~62k ....
Fat fat margin.

Re: F10 Launch

45k for highline. ok la. 5k short of E class

Re: F10 Launch

But compared against the E60 520 omv@$42k....

Re: F10 Launch

523 highline has higher specs, hence the higher omv. not sure how E class specs r, but they certainly dun have a distinction between highline or non highline.

Re: F10 Launch

If you can afford it, why not? Life is short.

For me, I hold off my purchase for my 2nd car until F10 arrives. Along the way, I considered BMW 3 series cabrio, Merc E-Class, Audi A5, A5 sportsback and Q5. Finally, I settled for F10 because I feel that it is a car suitable for both business and family.

Agreed.........

Re: F10 Launch

When I received the invitation and learnt that the venue is *cape. I decided to skip the event. Wrong venue = Wrong Image = Bad publicity. Merc e-class cabrio launched at Marina Bay Sands...

true man, not so atas venue after all.......................this venue for launching skateboard, roller blade or bicycle maybe can still pass..........


cheers

Re: F10 Launch

we got 6 items finger food, or something like that only
mediocre service at the launch even though catering was done by some big names
forget about the event/venus thing, let's enjoy the cars.

i think the rims are borrowed from M5 right?
