Greetings forumers
I just returned to Singapore for good after working overseas in Taiwan for 7 years. Was previously driving a C63 AMG followed by an F80 M3 until I returned last week but that is not the topic of this thread.
I dropped by the PML showroom having great interest in buying the new 340i which has the new B58 IL6 engine, but was informed that if I ordered the 340i with the M Sport package + M Performance exhaust etc, that the car being a new model, if package was never installed on any 340i in Singapore before, that it will be subject to LTA "homologation" (simi england word lai eh?!) of additional 2-3 months after the car arrives in Singapore?
TLDR version: 4 months waiting for car to arrive then + 2 to 3 months for LTA to "homologate" new model with M sport package = 6 to 7 months total wait?? I asked the sales rep several times (to be fair, she was really very friendly and helpful, no complaints) and the above-mentioned was confirmed.
Anyone here faced this situation before? Can someone let me know if the above-mentioned is true?
Thanks a lot in advance!
