Did anyone saw the 8-page insert of The Straits Times regarding the new BMW 5-Series?

The car bears somewhat close resemblance to the previous predecessor. Prices start from $215,000. 500 preorders have been made with 100 delivered liao.

Looks like BMW is going to all out to beat its closest rival?

BMW 5-Series Vs Mercedes Benz E-Class Cabriolet. Nice game.

The new 5 series looks a lot more conservative than the current E60. The majority of the interior has been kinda lifted from the new 7 series though.

I think in terms of C class vs 3 series, sales of the 3 series is way ahead. But when it comes to E class versus 5 series, it's probably quite a close call. I still think the E class is nice though.

Here's a very interesting advertisement for the E class..

I feel exterior wise, other than the lightings, I dun see a 360-degree change between the new saloon and the E60.

Yea..especially with the intro of 318i, help boost BMW sales a bit. But it's still lagging behind MB by some margin so far, so let's just sit back and watch the good show. Got the urge to go to showroom and take a look.

Yes, and I believe Audi could be partially the reason why BMW sales still behind MB..

Yea... seeing almost German makes making into the Top 10 charts, except Opel, make me got the urge to consider the those brands as my first drive. Haha....

QX179R SG

yes la, Mercedes-Benz..

lianamaster SG

yes la, Mercedes-Benz..

But very common.... thinking of Audi A3 Sportback or The VW Golf TSi....

Suddenly the Honda Jazz seems outdated.

QX179R SG

common is one thing..
at least there's not an infestation like the scanias..

I see the infestation of MB saloons the same way as the scanias.

QX179R SG

dun be silly..
u're comparing it with a grape & a grapfruit..

lianamaster SG

The buses aren't cheap also.

They cost as much as a MB.

QX179R SG

with dat kind of $$$, at least get various models la..
get 1K+ of them is wtf..

think I can forsee them using everything scanias, from their tow trucks to their motorcycles..

lianamaster SG

I personally have no issue with Scanias, but it so happen that the current KUB isn't to my liking and SBST has made a wrong move to buy so many of the same model. If a particular one has some mechanical fault, chances are the rest will also kena. The jerking issue of the bus is still ongoing. I still see ppl falling down when the BC step on the brakes. Still lots of unresolved issues just on the bus itself.

Scania is a reliable brand especially when it comes to designing commercial vehicles, since it's their forte.

QX179R SG

btw, always wanted to ask ur avatar is snapped from where one ah..

and for me I think I'd still stick to all the MBs that smrt are having rite now since it's gonna be history for sbt & when all the volvos are gone, more infestation of scanias (i hope not)..

lianamaster SG

For me, so long the bus freq is ok and the bus isn't too packed, I am contented.

Afterall, I might migrate to my own set of wheels in a few years' time.
