SMG and 6MT are available for the E60 including the 550i from September

The 550i gets hit with Gas Guzzler Tax of $1,000 which brings the base to $59,095 while the 530i now starts at $47,495

That leaves $12k in between, enough room for the 540i? BMW NA whats the story???

For sure there's no 540i. There's no significant option changes compared to previous year model. MY2007 would have significant change.

me too, i was getting real worried that I wouldnt be able to get SMG...

btw, all of the options are priced exactly the same as the March 1 update, so the wholesale numbers should not be changing, ...still waiting to get the actual spec sheet though..

It's weird that 550i is certified as ULEV and charged with gas guzzler tax by just consuming another 1 or 2mpg?

M630:

It makes me soooo envious to read about your prices
You get your BMW's for nothing.

It will be an heck of on upgrade for you from the E46 to the E60 weather you will choose the 530i or the 550i.

The R6 N52 engine runs so smooth but of course a V8 is always a V8.

my530i:
The facelift will not come before the MY 2007 (Sept. 2007) in Europe witch means your US MY 2008.
