Thanks! I see the base price jumped up to $93,600 now. I'm guessing by the last production year the base price will be over $100,000.

At least I got mine while it was still only $89,200 back in 2012.

They don't have that one new brown color listed on the website either. I forget the name of it.

Believe it or not, the new 2015 M5 is cheaper than the 2014 now when you build with typical options. (I think this maybe caused by the lighting package being a part of executive package).

My 2014 has: All 4 packages (exec, comp, driver, light) + B&O and MSRPS was $115,425. Now if I build same way on 2015 Configurator, it comes out $113,850 (1,575 lower than 2014).

And what's the enhanced USB and bluetooth ($500)?
I don't think I had it when I got mine.

The gas guzzler tax isn't gone just because it isn't listed. You will pay it on the M6GC.

Noticed that the Jatoba isn't available on the BMW USA configurator. Jatoba replaces Havana/Mojave Brown and is only slightly different from that.

I'm really surprised since the gas guzzler law to my knowledge has not been changed nor has the EPA mileage ratings for the M6GC.

Here is a preliminary list of cars subject to the gas guzzler tax for 2015.

http://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/pdfs/guides/FEG2015.pdf

The M5, M6, and M6GC are all subject to it. If a person did ED and got lucky and avoided paying the tax it is still owed. It is just that it slipped through the cracks.

Yea......that is most likely a computer glitch. The website also doesn't list the new JATOBA brown color either. I figured somebody "rushed" out the 2015 without checking everything.

One of my good friends is a BMW Genius back a dealership in California. I just asked him to check up on it. We'll get the final word soon.
