    Reason number 1. Register as many cars so that included in the MAA sales report. Then sell those cars as pre-reg/pre-owned cars still with long warranty and genuine super low mileage.

    Reason number 2. Whatever lost is car values would be translated as cost of marketing/advertising. Most importantly is exposure and real life experience.

    Especially since BMW Malaysia is some sort of subisidiary to BMW AG, headquarters wouldn’t mind to contribute a sum as part of promotional activities.
