F16 BMW X6 debuts at BMW World: xDrive35i, RM719k - Paul Tan's Automotive News
What intrigues me is why did BMW never do a 28i version of both X5 and X6, after all, projected performance would be close to the 520i, 7-8 seconds to 100kmh but heck of a lot cheaper to tax which means it would actually cross below the 600 mark... In the end, many would just get stuck at the same level, BMW needs to start considering bringing smaller engined X5s and X6s. They could start with the 25d that is globally available. BMW Malaysia is the ONLY company not just in Malaysia but the entire world to give its cars only 2 years warranty. Even BMW’s rival Mercedes have upped their warranty to 4 years. Do you know why BMW only gives a mere 2 years warranty. Just right after the 2nd year, as seen in forums and BMW groups postings, and facebook postings, major parts will fail. If you are just a high earner earning RM20,000 a month, please don’t bother with BMW even if you can afford the repayments. That is why you see so many 1 year old BMWs for sale in the 2nd hand market. Remember, unless you are a multi millionaire, please be careful when buying a BMW in Malaysia. To those sour grapes BMW salesman who will say I am a Mercedes salesman, don’t be jealous. Source: paultan.org
