528i - Buy now OR wait for facelift?

[LeoLilieno]

Mana ni detail of LCI version. I wait until my neck also long already. Why so secretive.

 

[mizhan]

A sales personnel told me LCI will be launched in Sept this year.

I have read it already. It doesn't say much. All the example shown there are 535 variant. I am waiting for the 528i variant and what will be the difference for the CKD version compare to the CBU one.

Hi, I am new here. I just placed my booking for 528i LCI last week. I was told is going to launch in October, 2013. Is that true? Thank you.

I spoke to my salesperson (Quill) on Friday and he confirmed it will launch in October

 

[aerotourer]

Great to hear that. At least Quill also confirmed the facelift 5 Series will be launching on October, 2013.

You place a booking without the details? How much they quoted you?

 

[aerotourer]

Price was not given but believe more or less will be the same as current model.

Any promotion OR discount given?

 

[Toffeeman]

I was informed there will be price increase again for facelift. I seriously BMW is being complacent here.

 

[LeoLilieno]

I am already tired of waiting and since I got pretty good deal (at least for me) from both BMW Dealer and BMW Credit, I booked 528i liao. Next week car will be ready for collection. He he he he.

 

[mr101]

From what I heard after the BMW Malaysia Drive Experience, 5er LCI would be coming in Oct, and price would be slightly higher than current models - apparently some new toys/ gadgets

 

[cafee]

Price Increase is at the RM30k mark
Diesel is 350k+
520i RM380k+
Reliable source

 

[enkil]

So fast already facelift?

 

[Toffeeman]

What are the changes or improvements in specs? If not, they will lose heavily to the new MB E Class. The facelift E Class is a marked improvement from its predecessors and also the specs for Malaysia is very generous.

 

[affan66]

I was told new lights, refashioned front grille, updated iDrive. Mostly styling but mechanically still the same

 

[Toffeeman]

So should such upgrades warrant such a hefty increase?
