[QUOTE="anxious, post: 662620, member: 193"] No-lah. With modern BMWs, buying second hand is quite a gamble. After owing 3 second hand BMWs over the last 10 years,ie E30, E36 and now E90, I'm looking forward to owning a new one someday. Nothing really beats the smell of new leather in a new car. However, until prices of new cars are reduced gradually through some sort of reform to our tax system, I'm afraid owning a new BMW may remain a dream for me personally. I'm hopeful that a change of government in the next GE may result in the reform I'm dreaming of. RM300-400k for a car that is only worth half is a rip off esp if you are already paying substantial income taxes. Now that's really double taxation! Anyway, as for BMW Msia, to remain competitive, it should seriously consider giving buyers 4 year warranty. It can offset the cost by making BSRI optional as BMW does in Spore, UK and Aust. [B]Alternatively, it can give buyers an option ie 2yrs extra warranty vs free 3 yr BSRI.[/B] Which option would you guys prefer? [/QUOTE]
