M5 Price to be Cut

Looks like some markets will see another lesser variation of the M5... Unless this is fake.

Thoughts on the new model ?

It is not fake. What you have to understand is that in the Australian market with the prices we pay for cars my M5 was $250,000. And that was when the A$ was worth 1 US$. And our M5s come absolutely fully loaded. The only options are CCBs and B&O. Otherwise they have everything else.

They have decided to introduce the stipped down version to allow them to reduce the price to compete more effectively with the E63. It lacks full leather, and the comp pack, and alcantara etc to allow them to reduce the price. It remains an expensive car by US standards though.

Sadly it is a combination of the importers gauging us, and the government taxing us with their Luxury Car Tax !

A tts, drive away is, wait for it, $475,466. And that is without any options !

So jealous of the prices you pay for cars over there

Not sure if that's right - it could be. We seem to have most of the most deadly animals one way or the other
