F10 stock clearance promotion

Re: F10 stock clearance promotion

There are quite afew 2-6 months old PI F10s in sgcarmart and even taking into account the "profit" the dealers/sellers get from the COE increase, it still makes sense to buy from them rather than from PML.

PML's pricing is still damn high despite their "unrivalled" trade-in and overtrades.

Reputable PI ones are still more value for money comparing apples with apples.

I like how you say 'reputable' PI.8) Refined.
 
Re: F10 stock clearance promotion

I dunno whether this has been asked before but what the heck..


Say you bought your car from a PI and after 3 years waranty expire and wan to sell it.

Your fren has the exact same car as you but bought from PML, same thing..warranty also expired.

Both cars are on "equal footing"

Which one would people buy?
 
Re: F10 stock clearance promotion

selecting a good PI is a challenge which many lazy people or timid people will try to avoid as far as possible. low prices that those PI can offer most will have no confidence in, those good PI with good track record their car prices not as much saving from AD. so... tough choice my friend.

then u look at omv of car, and also whether new buyer want to go back to pml or ma for future servicing anot. if both these 2 factor are impt, then get pml car.
 
Re: F10 stock clearance promotion

Ahwing, some PI's cars are higher in OMV than PML's cars. But assuming same OMV, why would one be biased against a PI car?

A typical dealer will always ask "agent or PI?" and then their offer will be adjusted from there.

PML or PI car..still a BMW, no warranty, same OMV.. how come got difference in pricing and treatment. PML cars have nicer smell?
 
Re: F10 stock clearance promotion

a lot of ppl buy from PML
then service outside.
 
Re: F10 stock clearance promotion

if brand new conti car, i still would think alot of pple will try to buy from AD as if sway sway kena lemon car. at least the warranty claim will be more of a breeze compare to PI. paying the additional premium to AD is more like buying insurance and peace of mind

And reason why people prefer pml car, because at least next buyer will have a peace for mind that 1st 3 year 1st owner go to pml for servicing and there is a service history record. and also mileage will be more genuine and easily traceable.

as compared to a PI car, the owner high chance go all over the shop for servicing, getting service record will be difficult unless owner is an enthusiast. mileage also skeptical as outside workshop damn good at tampering with mileage n stuff.

my opinions.
 
Re: F10 stock clearance promotion

I would buy JDM cars from PI, but something as electronically complicated as a BMW is very touchy. You have maps, iDrive, bluetooth, gearbox... the new 8 speed is a completely new tranny in the industry and has less than 2 years of use so far... not even sure of its real reliability until it reaches 5-6 year mark. I think I will wait for 5 series LCI...
 
Re: F10 stock clearance promotion

PML high over trade is just a camouflage, basic car cost = omv x 1.2 x 1.07 + 100% omv + coe, selling at 254!!! profit at least 70k!!! so when they take in ur car abt 10k + higher than any other dealer, really worth???

After buying the car, the only difference for (out of warranty) PI and PML car is whether can bring back PML to repair.

Wah realy sounds quite bad. I think better dress up properly before go showroom and make sure your pocket deep enough for them to dig. Always love to hear this kind of 'experience'.

Business must be very good - the first time i enquired about the 528i when it first arrived, i was told they were prepping the car and the SE will contact me - then no follow up. Second time i tested the car, the SE was quite blase and only asked at the end - so what colour and when booking? But nothing since - which is great!
 
Re: F10 stock clearance promotion

Sometimes I really wonder how these so call salespeople deserve to be selling BMWs....

I'm glad my SE is of much higher calibre. He just came to my place after 1 mth of sales to pass me a BMW long sleeve biker's T shirt and a nice black blouse for my wife.

Now this is what I call SERVICE with a smile! Congrats, bro ST8800. Lucky for you also, your Sales Exec is a HIM.

If your SE is a HER, you have even MORE explaning to do to Her Majesty, than the drone from the Remus pipes, hahahahaha!:thumbsup:

Bro spursburger, I think Bro ST8800 bought the F10 - you can check out all his super hiong zh'nging in his HERE :)

I never got biker T shirt or blouse from my Sales Exec - and I bought two 7'ers from her previously. But, she did throw in a couple of big-ass golf umbrellas (the types that my wife loves) and also got us additional custom-made-to-fit floor mats in matching interior colour that's a better quality than the 3M ones in the market, so I guess she's also doing her job to keep the after-sales service going & the customer happy!
