Cook my sock Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Or put yourself on the waiting list and import a uk spec tesla 3 in a year. Great performance and low tax on electric imports means you could get that in for the same price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luk AJ Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Buy the BMW M5 for Baht 4 million and it has 552 bhp. A Merc is just a taxi, go to Germany and that is all they use for taxi'sSadly the M5s cost more than double that amount! Can you point me to the car with that 552 hp? http://www.bmw.co.th/th/th/BMW_Price_List_2016.html Is the BMW 6-series no longer sold in Thailand? Bit sad to see that the 5-series have been reduced to a 2.0 4 cylinder engine. It is a twin turbo though.. Can be remapped to 300HP. I bought the M5 V10 S85 in Thailand. 500HP but for the maniacs, can be boosted with a supercharger to 650HP. It's an older model anyway a great car to drive.

VocalNeal Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 At the moment they're trying to hold the company together and to open a small assembly plant in Thailand for the small market here would be insane. Meanwhile in the real world... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buythisdashcam Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Tesla was until now 8MB, I don't believe that this model will be cheaper anytime soon.

Deliveries start late next year. Thai import Duty on electric vehicles is 80% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xaos Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Well I saw that the latest version of the AMG A45 hatch has had it's price reduced by 1.4 million baht It is now listed at only 4.39 million.. Surely that now makes it the Thai performance car bargain of the century ?7 speed DSG, 475Nm of torque and the Worlds most powerful production 2 litre 4 banger...Certainly makes the less powerful Cayman, the new M2 and even secondhand M3's etc look pricey.Finally the greeny tree huggers CO2 emmision nonsense is good for something as that seems to be the reason the price has dropped..Feel sorry for any rich kids who bought one of these last year for a lot more cash ( less powerful too )A grey import Golf R is in a similar price bracket but an officially imported Merc with dealer service and better residuals has to be a good deal..Just need to save up the cash now Any thoughts petrol heads ? It's not the prettiest I know...Wonder how much a new Audi RS3 is in the Land of Smiles ?Dont forget Ford Focus RSNew model 350hpOlder one 400hpSent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk C63 Coupe (4.0 V8 BiTurbo ) is 9.9 Million which makes the 3.0 V6 BiTurbo C43 a bit of a bargain at only 5 million Baht. The C43 has 4 wheel drive too but not the wider flared wings of the C63. Yes I know about the Ford Focus. It's close in HP to the A45 but has a cheap looking interior. It's 4wd is rear wheel biased ( which I like )but it isn't available from Ford Thailand. I'd prefer the Audi RS3 over the Ford but that isn't available here either.

It was not so good for thai roads, i did like 80k km and was worried about suspension if it will hold up.

I had a good look at it at the last motor show. Considering I've always preferred BMW's I was really impressed by the spec and the price. Gets great reviews and there are hardly any 6 cyl cars available now in Thailand at a "reasonable" price. M3 or M4 are crazy expensive. Cayman now has a 4 pot turbo and the Honda and Toyota V6's have gone too.. Never fancied a Nissan 370Z cos of the slushbox. GT-R too pricey.. Hmmmmm...

Seems to have been some delivery delays for CBU cars. Was surprised that no M2 or A45/GLA45 at the recent motor show.. Would have though that BMW would have been keen to promote it as an entry to M cars.. Considering the price of a secondhand M3 a new M2 is a pretty good deal in Thai terms.
