NAP After-Effects: Mercedes Benz CKDs cheaper, CBUs to cost more

cclass_small.jpgDaimlerChrysler Malaysia is reducing the prices of it’s CKD Mercedes Benz luxury cars across the board in the range of 6.5% to 10%, with immediate effect.

DCM CEO Datuk Frank Steinleitner gave some examples of the new prices to the press. The Mercedes Benz C180K previously selling for RM255,800 would now cost RM233,888. The Mercedes Benz E240K which was previously selling at RM428,000 is now selling for RM388,000.

Mercedes Benz CKD cars are assembled by DaimlerChrysler Malaysia at it’s plant in Pekan, Pahang. Datuk Steinleitner also said that prices of it’s CBU Mercedes Benz would increase significantly as soon as the current stock is sold out. People lucky enough to consider a CBU Mercedes Benz should take note of this and expediate your purchase as soon as possible.

    [...] And you keep is in the dark about what the problem is. All I see on your announcement page is news about some e-mail server maintenance. Who in their right mind would trust their important e-mails to your dodgy servers anyway? Are you pretending there is no problem and hoping we’ll all get used to this and stop complaining and everything will be alright again? Have you re-allocated funds for infrastructure upgrades into overseas investments and buying new Mercedes Benz E240 sedans now that they are RM40,000 cheaper? [...]
