You should join Vincar. They have the same foresight. Hence a few forumers here are getting their car much faster than from PML. I firmed my order in end April, and was told it will be here mid-May. Then end-May. Then end-June. Finally early July. 2 months wait, but they ordered this batch way way ahead, w/o fear for inventory backlog. Good business sense. Heard some PIs are also sourcing from Vincar. Hence their price hike - last unit transacted $215K......

at the rate the demand is going, it wont come down
u missed the boat but then again if u pay 10k more, spread over 5yrs of driving, that is peanuts...Kenn says one.

PI buy from PI = PML price.

If this is the case, I will buy from PML eventhough their aftersales service sucks.

I hate to imagine the impact on quality due to backlog n pressure to deliver..... that will in turn translate to local workshop workload later....

There are only 2 main problems that should worry you. 1 is the high pressure fuel pump and the other is Cylinder 5 and 6 overheating at high speeds for a continued period of time. 1 really depends on your luck but PML has already stadby about 6 units of fuel pumps in the malaysia warehouse just in case. As for cylidner 5 and 6, i understand BMW is trying to increase the water pump rate to ease of the problems of overheating on cylinder 5 and 6. Anyway, thats only applicable if you are goin up NS and are gonna constantly keep a high speed. Other than that, there is nothing to worry. Of course intermittent small issues will pop out but the sheer marvel of the N54 powerplant will make you ignore all that.

Some will add the oil cooler, but it seems that it is only a US problem. Anyone here has the same problem(s)?

The oil cooler is not relevant to our Singapore markets as the factory for Singapore a.k.a Hot Climate all has oil coolers. In US and Europe, Oil Coolers only come standard when you opt for the Sports Package. With the procede and no oil cooler, you are asking for trouble.

Was at Vincar last weekend, was so close but yet so far. Some lucky person had reserved the black coupe just before and was going to bring the cheque on that day. That was the last coupe they had. They've only got a silver cabriolet left.
