[QUOTE="wobbles, post: 559113, member: 24637"] In my opinion, realoem.com is the best guide. Everything I've checked thus far has come up spot on. Word for word match on what I have on my log cards :) I had my doubts about the F02 730Li when it was made available in Singapore in early 2010. Around the same time, there was news about how BMW were getting some of the F02s to be made in Thailand. Now, no offense to our ASEAN neighbours, but if I was about to fork out close to $360,000 for a car, I'd rather have that car put together in Germany & shipped over! My sales exec. reassured me that all F02 730Li models imported into Singapore were manufactured in Germany. Given the fact that the F02 740Li had the issue with the HPFP around the same time I was in the market for a new car, I took the sales exec's word for it, and commited to the F02 730Li - in my mind, better to have a Thailand made car, than a car with a faulty engine! Then, bro EL118 showed me the realOEM.com website - I keyed in my VIN, and voila: it WAS made in Germany, with an N52N engine... I happy liao :) [/QUOTE]
