Even if it happens, I am very sure the F30 replacement model will be bare model while the E90 will be loaded with add-on in order for them to be sold at the same price. Just like in 2005 where the E90 came out while they're still selling the E46. What was the price difference then? The E46 was CKD and was selling at about RM220k loaded with goodies while the E90 was CBU and were selling at RM260k, no Xenon, no electric seat, smaller wheels, no rain sensor, just to name a few.. not to mention the many problems found in the earlier batch of the new model which takes time to resolve and make later batches a more reliable unit.It normally takes 1 to 2 years to get the replacement model CKD here in order to qualify for lower duties, and in the meantime your existing car would continue to depreciate, despite at a slower rate than a new car.. so u do the maths and find your entry point. I am sure this entry point varies from one individual to another.... and Schwepps, thanks for the lunch.. :wink:</blockquote>
