Voodooman Supersonic March 5, 2017 Share March 5, 2017 Nowadays, where got 528 anymore? It's either 520 or 530 for 4 pot. Not even bother to come with 525. Very hard to sell le (i don't meant Singapore hor) 2 years ago, I nearly bought the 528. PML's 528 pricing, relative to the 520 (60k differential, IIRC), totally did not make sense then as both are 4 pot. But the gap of 70k between the current 530 (4) versus 540 (6) is more tolerable. Don't think 530 can move much at 280k after initial fanboy phase when the E200 is selling at 250 nett (albeit underpowered). There should be some discount. They retired the inline 6 525 first, my colleague bought the last batch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

johankassim81 1st Gear March 5, 2017 Share March 5, 2017 The BMW 530i Luxury comes with a pricetag of $280,800 and an OMV of $49,363, while the BMW 540i M Sport goes for $355,800 with an OMV of $75,553. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voodooman Supersonic March 6, 2017 Share March 6, 2017 Should compare the 530i with the E250 instead. I was told 530 is number inflation? Lol... OMV for 530 should be in the ball park of E200 (circa 50k, think E200 might actually be higher), no reason why PML wants to leave C&C with the budget luxury executive market, listed price for both about the same, right?

The engine output of the E250 is closer to the 530, so it would be a better comparison. So far, there's only a 520d to complete with the e200 for the "budget" luxury, but they might come out with a 520 in the future. Not difficult because it's just the same set of engines placed in different chassis. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steptronic Supercharged March 6, 2017 Share March 6, 2017 520 and 528 price difference was always in the range of 20 to 30k only (and never 60k) 2 years ago, I nearly bought the 528. PML's 528 pricing, relative to the 520 (60k differential, IIRC), totally did not make sense then as both are 4 pot. But the gap of 70k between the current 530 (4) versus 540 (6) is more tolerable.

Voodooman Supersonic March 6, 2017 Share March 6, 2017 520 and 528 price difference was always in the range of 20 to 30k only (and never 60k)In first quarter of 2015, I was quoted around 210-220k for the 520 and 270k for the 528, if I remember correctly. There was a discount on the 520 but SE refused to extend the same for the 528. I was very puzzled and ended up at C&C. Lol... 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What overtrade does PML offer for the 530i ? In first quarter of 2015, I was quoted around 210-220k for the 520 and 270k for the 528, if I remember correctly. There was a discount on the 520 but SE refused to extend the same for the 528. I was very puzzled and ended up at C&C. Lol... PML normally push the base model for volume. Hence the discount for the 520i. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

From pure engine perspective, it does not make sense for the price diff btw F10 520 & 528. Need to look into the bell & whistle hor. G10 530 & 540 is 2 difference engine le. Somemore F10 535 price is about the same as G10 540. When G10 520 is launched, it will be 60k less as compared to 530. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence the discount for the 520i. With higher OMV, there are less room to play with pricing. As i said before countless time, it is pointless to compare margin.
