I think it is because Australia uses the metric system. I'm reliably informed that making a right hand drive speedometer in km/h costs at least $100,000. |

I have three kids to put through school and two to buy cars for and an M5 isn't one of the considerations, at least not at those prices. But I'm not going to lie; I have a hard time with the concept of spending more than $50K on a car, at least as long as one can get a perfectly fine vehicle for $50K.

M3 Coupe UK - £54,595 M3 Coupe US - $58,900 Currently £54,595 = $88,000 (what we in the UK effectively pay in US$) 88,000 minus 58,900 = 29,100 - that's how much cheaper the car is in the US. |
