Long story short my car had dropped in value by ~RM15k overnight.I wrote to BMW Malaysia but they brushed me off.I don't actually expect much in the way of compensation, but a token gesture would be nice so I don't feel like such a sucker.I fully understand that BMW Malaysia wouldn't have any control over the timing of the EEV process, but it drives me crazy that no one mentioned this application was in process when I was considering buying the car. Chances are, I may have bought it anyway rather than wait for the outcome of the decision, but at least I would have been buying it with full knowledge of the situation and potential risk.Really, just wondering whether any of you are in the same boat?Cheers, guys.</blockquote>
