hello and welcome, hellooooooo! Hi helloooo! (as jermy clarkson starts his show)
i went to an official bmw showroom called AGMC http://www.bmw-dubai.com/me_dl/agmc_en/ the staff told me that there is a set of new x6s will arrive after 21 days which means in the 1st of jan 2010, do you want to reserve one of them: "yes" i said!! but my worries, is that will i get the new iDrive system in my new bmw x6 ? when i asked the staff this question he told me " i dont know we did not get an email from the mother company about the new iDrive system in the x6!!" i was like can you help me guyz , what do you think since when the x6s with new iDrive system started to spread before how many months? what do you think guyz will i have the new iDrive system or not ._. ? i live in UAE, Dubai thank you very much |

Things are different around here in the Gulf region. There's usually only 1 authorized dealer in each of the countries here and they tend to order cars based on the popular or demanded options in general. that also applies to color combinations of interior and exterior. Usually they offer 2 option packages, high and normal spec cars. I think the reason is that majority of the customers around here are not so picky about options and prefer to choose their car based on packages rather than having to customize it. It's less of a hussle for the dealer, plus it makes the decision easier for customers...just choose your color and the options package. In addition, customers still have the option to custom their cars they way they want.

So, for instance, an oversees (or desert for that matter) dealer in the Gulf would say here is the price of your BMW and the car has full options, but have to pay that higher margin. The customer then would say ok, I can get the car from Dubai, but this car has little options (and most of the time its doo doo options ). The customer now would have to worry about shipment costs (which is not much, along with a massive migraine), but thats the drawback + the little options. And that is y Dubai sells cars with those little options. I hope this helps in understanding Oh and all 2010 X6's get the New iDrive Amity: Mabrook for the car and Salam

Tsoogha bil3afya inshallah...
oh and Amity, i think ull appreciate this one when i went to visit Dubai- haha This took place in a hick town called Al-Ain, UAE Cop: "Why did you sayyi7 wheel?" Me: "What does that mean? i dont understand you!" Cop: "You went sideways with the car!" Me: "I didn't feel the car go sideways" Cop: "Well, here we felt the car go sideways" then he went on saying "Yalla, off to the department we go" Me: "I didn't do anything wrong!" Cop: "1st, I should impound the car for a month. 2nd, I should throw you in jail. 3rd, I should fine you for reckless driving. 4th, I should give you a fine for your long hair!" Then I pulled the "Im not from here" card, and let me go with a warning.

ROFL ! ZKA
Al ain is a region which is related to abu dhabi (in other meanings: abudhabi's government and alain government are the same!) and their government is horrible! it is more strict than dubai and sharjah and other uae cities they fine 10,000 dirhams (around 3,000 usa dollars) if you put 50% (or more) of glass cover ( so as to avoid sun beams while ur driving) lol with 10k dhs (3k $) i would buy a full exhaust system from eisenmann man once u come to uae again visit albdayer check out this vid this video is taken in albdayer where are u from zka usa? --------------- ooooo guyz .. my car will arrive after 10 days , i just talked to them (bmw showroom) LETS HOPE that my car will be with iDrive ... if it is not with the new iDrive system , that means its 2009 not 2010 right? the thing that make me worry is that all the x6s in the showroom have the older iDrive controller and the staff keep telling me that they are 2010 x6s ?!?!?!? how come ?! 2010 x6 with an old iDrive ? i think they are lying so as to sell these cars and get rid of em !? as soon as possible, so as to start selling the new 2010 cars of x6 what should i do if it is with an old iDrive? should i reject it and wait for the next set of x6s ? |
