[QUOTE="Maniac, post: 518641, member: 20491"] bro, when comparing the 523 and 520, i believe it's mainly due to the tax structures on the vehicles. the effective tax (import + excise) on a 1800-1999cc vs 2000-2499cc passenger vehicle is approx 157% vs 172% of the vehicle CIF (cost, insurance, freight). effective taxes grow to 193% for engines above 2.5 litres the X's? i agree, they're overpriced lah...the X3 with nav osts the same as the 523! damned fun to drive, though. get into the X1 and take it for a spin and you'll know what i mean.
