[QUOTE="wobbles, post: 559245, member: 24637"] Hear hear. Now, that is NOT to say that the CKD or SKD models are in anyway 'inferior' - clearly, they are not. From what I've come to understand (after doing some more reading about it), the CKD/SKD scheme is essentially a scheme to allow for 'assembly' in Malaysia, thus attracting lower taxes, which isn't a bad thing, as the most important bits of the car (e.g. the electronics, the ECU, the engine) are all made overseas (Germany, mainly, for BMW) - and only the final fitting together is done in Malaysia. But, as I said, if I were to be paying through my NOSE for a BMW, let my Bimmer come fully assembled & shipped from Dingolfing (my F02 & my upcoming F13, hehehe) [/QUOTE]
