Need to ask this question. How much would you guys in Singapore really pay for an E60 M5? We all know it lists at SGD 470,000.00 here. The E55 lists at SGD 418,000.00. Okay, there are differences, but not as much as the price difference suggests.

I believe PML's mark up for M cars is always much higher than for their regular models, which is a bit unfair.

[/quote]If you trust what PML says, those M cars (m5 and M6) are niche and adopters are very limited in volume but the investment they have to put in (training of personnels on handling the new F1 derived engines; new mechatonics; diagnostic tools etc.. etc..) therefore the premium they will charge for the car.
Edlee, itchy on M cars har? go for M6.. Porsche Carrera S killer so they said.

Don't forget; the M5 is a 4 door. Can still use for official duties. M6 is a 2 door. Just a play car.

The new E60 525 now comes with navigation in response to Mercedes offering navigation as standard for E200 and E240. However, the new E60 523 does not even come with a boot lid release button as a standard. What a shame.

[/quote]Either car will have them pinned against their backrest during acceleration. You can put a $50 note on the dash. Through the gears if they managed to reach forward and grab it its theirs.

Met up with SOC_fans this afternoon just to pass him the decal. He'll be back in July. Maybe then we'll go for a drink.

[/quote]Yup Edlee, thanks for the decal. And i still owe you a drink..
