Billcoke 2nd Gear October 12, 2009 Share October 12, 2009 Checked with PML and here is their feedback. 1. COE Promo: Must take up 90% loan, at 3.5% (COE valued at $20k), no over trade. 2. Standard package: 90% loan at 2.5% + 11k over trade. So is the COE promo a good package??? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph22 Turbocharged October 12, 2009 Share October 12, 2009 90% loan with 3.5% interest look like the COE is already counted in the Loan... Not worth it since 3 and 5 series is not cheap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Konken Clutched October 12, 2009 Share October 12, 2009 It's all factored in the math, no free lunch in this world. Same as the $333 installment for first year gimmick right? Second year, you bleed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leepee 1st Gear October 12, 2009 Share October 12, 2009 If one can afford a one year loan or redeem the loan after one year....then it might be a good deal. Or to see it from another point of view....the profit margin of BMW is so high that they can absorb the $19k COE easily. So its true that year end is a good time to buy BMW or cars as some AD might need to justify their priciple on their sales figures as authorised delears. The sponsor for Nissan car in MCF also mentioned that TC is trying to move more units of latio and is giving much discount on the cars. Competition is tough with the reduced quota? AD fighting for the limited pie? Could be why the COE did not move up much during the last bidding, for fear of driving away buyers? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starry Supercharged October 12, 2009 Share October 12, 2009 yea dont look like u save any money. why is bmw going for such offers? their clients no money pay COE must loan 90%? tot bmw attracts richies. This is exactly where their problem is. Most of their customers are richies which they pay either all cash or darn a lot upfront. So almost nothing to earn from the banks. So now they have all these funny offers that encourage 90% loan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
