[QUOTE="Schwepps, post: 201776, member: 3592"] Sometimes it pays to step back and think about the situation from the other shoe. CKD delivery - They only have 1 assembly line in Shah Alam. If you've been involved in manufacturing before, you'll know the constraints of single assembly lines. You tool it up to make 320s and you have to run a whole batch before tooling up to make 325s. And the line is probably not just for E90s either. Same with colours. You set up to paint a batch of SG, then TS, etc. You don't paint 1 SG, then 1 TS, then 1 BS. Manufacturing is sure to be slow with only 1 line. Conclusion: Can't take the reason? Go buy a Camry :) Service - If they've lost a bunch of experienced guys to say Sapura or the outside service world, it means they have a bunch of new mechs fresh out of technical school. BMWs are difficult cars to fix, even for experienced mechs. Lump BMWs together with other new tech high performance cars, not old tech low performance cars and you'll understand the problem. Conclusion: Find a good outside mech who's probably ex-BMW anyway :) I'm mellow today for some reason :D [/QUOTE]
