My Ride: 525i Touring 2005, Carbonblack, Nappa Naturbraun, M-pack, Comfortline, Navi Prof, Steptronic, Bi-Xenon, Eisenmann exhaust.
Hi guys,
I am so surprised about the different prices of bmw's and cars in general around the world. I live in Holland and here the cars are very expensive. We pay a lot of taxes even we are neighbour of Germany where the BMW's come from.
For example, the new M5 without any additional options costs here 133k euro's, converted that means 178k us dollars. I suppose that is a lot more than in the US, isnt it.
My car, a 525i touring, full option cost me 82k euro's, so 110k dollars
I would love to compare some prices of bmw's around the world, for start lets take the M5.
Regards,

Sorry Ray Hull,
But this sucks us who have to pay hard for our E60's.
The Finnish prices including a 100% car tax and a 22% VAT (also for the tax!) are:
New standard 525iA 61 k€, 550iA 94 k€ and the M5 135 k€.
Options makes min 10 k€ to 50 k€ extra.
For a cheap US $ take times 1,23.
My 525iA is a 71 k€ car = 87 k$ -> loaded 550iA Sport.

My Ride: In a place where the Mercedes density is the highest in the world (no. of MB per square kilometer) I choose a Bimmer, why? because of one thing "The Ultimate Driving Experience"
My Ride:
523i Steptronic, Silver Grey Exterior, Black Interior with Black Dakota Leather and Maple Wood Trim. Chrome Grill, Style 123 rim, Airbags everywhere, PDC, Rain sensor, Auto lights, Moveable front armrest, Advance Climate Control, Glass Sunroof, Auto dimming interior and exterior mirror with foldable functions, Extended Lights package, 6 CD changer in glove box, Power seats with memory, Power adjustable steering wheel, Power rear sunblinds.
Add ons: 123 wheels, chrome grill, K&N Hi flow filter, Eibach Pro Kit, e60.net decal and 24,000km
Past rides:

M5 in Hong Kong = $1,480,000 HKD = 156,153 Euro = 190,761 USD
525iA = $548,000 HKD = 57,826 EUR = 70,632 USD
So the Hong Kong government tax higher for Luxury cars with high displacement, the same goes for license fee.

I think car prices in Singapore would probably qualify among the highest in the world.
M5 - about S$450,000 - US$278,000
M6 - about S$500,000 - US$308,000
M5 - about S$450,000 - US$278,000
M6 - about S$500,000 - US$308,000
WOW!!!!
