Im sorry, wasn't made at an attempt to poke fun. I really like Yoda speak.
Based on the fact that I only know english I have no basis for poking fun at someone that knows at least two other languages.
Really wasn't intended as an insult.

, but actually four langos, but it seems non extraordinarily well.So now I know my nic should be Yodaracing - have to it under serious consideration.
Anyway, the Finnish customs have now published some calculations on car prices.
Here's a few examples on E60's (all prices in Euros including VAT 22%):
520dA, now 59,640 - in 2008 51,823
525iA, now 62,790 - in 2008 57,477
525dA, now 65,640 - in 2008 59,101
530iA, now 70,890 - in 2008 64,743
530dA, now 70,340 - in 2008 63,692
535dA, now 79,850 - in 2008 72,916
550iA, now 97,990 - in 2008 100,357
M5, now 137,850 - in 2008 177,524
So actually only the 550iA will be bit more expensive,
but the price of an M5 will increase almost 40,000 Euros!!!
My 520dA will be more than 7,800 Euros cheaper!

Ouch on the M5 pricing, but good news for you! 7,800 euros is a lot of money to save. Now think of all accessories you can buy for your new car with the money!!!
Yes, 7.800 Euros is about USD 11.300 in these days,
but the problem is that I'm of course trading my car.
A 250 g/km CO2 polluter (!) is not that attractive anymore...
Since I made the deal a month ago
I contacted my dealer yesterday
who replied today and confirmed
that the economics will come my way.
But how much - next week I know.
So maybe there will also be Sport Seats
with leather/fabrics.
I'm not even sure I want them, let's see.
But no full leather seats for me anymore, they are
hot in the summer and really cold in the winter.

Yodaracing I like.
Though a bit excessive, I think, a 40,000 Euro increase on an M5.

"Yodaracing", you are saving a lot of money on your 520d. In Norway we have the LE version of the 520d . LE = Limited Edition. It features the 150 bhp engine with the 158 co2/km. I went for the LE version when I purchased my E60 M sport this summer.
