Re: Specs List
Went to the BMW UK webstie (Thanks for the info Tanad27)
BMW UK : Car Configurator
Choose 6 series coupe/convertible etc
Look under options
There is a complete list of all the options and their price in GBP
I did a quick comparison using the PML option price list (up to Feb 2012)
View attachment 39355
A simple comparison of PML quoted prices for the options divided by the UK price in GBP shows that there ia a ratio of around 4-5.5.
The other columns are SGD (UK price X2), Times 2.33 refers to the usual OMV + ARF/Tax etc
If you compare PML SGD to Times 233 it is interesting to see that not everything is marked up a lot by PMLfor the options. Note in particular the B&O system option by PML is cheaper
Please note for simplicity sake, I did not take off the VAT, and we also have not included other costs involved in shipping
The second lower part of the table are options which are already standard in PML cars. X4.5 and X5 is just 4.5X and 5X of the 1st column, the price in GBP, just to give a rough guide as to the price if you intend to indent PI
For after market add ons eg reverse cam I have been quoted around $3xxx. If you take the UK price of 330 and multiply by 5 it is much less than retrofitting. Similarly soft close is only 290 X5 is around 1450.
Conclusion is that if you are going to indent, it is still more worthwhile factory fitting as much a possible instead of adding on after market.
2nd Conclusion, in UK our cars would have cost around 60-65K GBP on the road or about $120-130K SGD. Sigh.....
