There's basically 3 ways of buying an M3 here being the first owner in Singapore.

Firstly, you can go through the official importer, expect to pay at least $420K SGD

Secondly, you can "parallel" import one from the UK, this will cost $320K SGD (this is all before options.

Thirdly, you can do a "used car import", whereby, the car must be less than 3 years old from the UK. I'm paying roughly $50k SGD less than the parallel imported price for a car with 1,000kms on it.

The main differences would be that UK cars generally have a lower spec, not all of them come with front parking sensors and the speedo has Km/h and Mph. Although UK cars have the digital read out in either format!

btw, 1 AUD is roughly 1.31 SGD now
