WOW! I feel really lucky! The 550i (options listed below) only cost about US$ 70K after all taxes.

I bought my 2004 525i in Germany for EUR 33 500. Imported into Norway with all taxes paid the price became EUR 57 000 That's the tax regime in Norway :thumbsdown:

I wanted a bigger engine. Well, if I would go for a 530i the tax would increase by EUR 7800. In addition the car would cost some more in Germany (and put 25% sales tax on top of that )

In Norway you pay taxes according to i) the weight of the car ii) sylinder volume and iii) horse power.

To give you an exaple: going from a 2.0-litre to a 2.5-litre increases the tax by EUR 4730 (in addition you pay for extra horse power). That's why a turbo engine is nice for the Norwegian tax regime. But when you love BMW that is no option

Next year the Norwegian gowernment has promised to change the tax rates according to CO2-emmision. So, next time I should consider a powerful diesel engine (maximum a 530d, I suppose). That is, if I chose to still live in this wonderful country (after all it is rated by UN as the best in the world )

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

Well you call taht high?Hear about this!At your country M5 is 278,000 US ,but at my country malaysia only a 525I has the same price as your M5.M5 at my country?hehehe RM987,000=$US329,000.Why you ask me?Well maybe our minister had gone mad.
