It is also a balance of how desirable the market is to BMW.... In the UK (and sounds like Singapore!) BMW has a good market share. In the USA, not so much yet: so maybe more attractive pricing because they want to get into that market. Maybe they are less interested in "getting into the market" in less developed countries (hence not willing to drop prices incredibly low).
