Indeed, I really would like to ask the BMW managers how they can justify the huge price differences between some countries. Sure, there are countries with big luxury taxes, but for example Switzerland has no luxury taxes and the salex taxes are 8%, so how can they justify that the M6 convertible costs about $ 114'000 in the States and about $ 200'000 in Switzerland. Yes, they'll probably have some more equipment in the base model, but that's definitely not the whole explanation.
