Yes! You're right, a $20k price drop. Don't know why~~~ 
523i didn't have a price drop. But 323i does have a price increase of $20k.

Are they trying to clear the '06 and get ready for the facelifted 07?

I thought they are not intended to import 550i since you don't see much 545i around, so they are bringing it in finally.
It was weird when I check the bmw site to see only 530i and the next step up is the M5.

So the 525i is all gone, strange I thought most would opt for the 523i since there's minor difference. I guess the ugly rim does push people away.

Hi Guys,
I haven't visited here for a long time. Glad to see that you guys had some gatherings organized recently. Anyway, just wanted to share my excitiment as I picked up my car tonight with some latest mods.

Sorry for these dark garage pics... I am planning to clean n' detail the car more thoroughly this weekend and drive it to some place nice for pics (if weather permits)... will post them later in a gallery.
Cheers,
AhJai

OK... for some reason a photo of an unmasked plate was slipped into the post... dunno why... anyway, that means I don't have to take time to mask my plate whenever I post pics in the future... haha
