BMW has just announced that the new "emmy" will be shown at the Paris Autoshow (September 25 - October 10), and that the car will be available from end of February 2005 or beginning of March 2005!
Base prise is 86,200.- Euro.

News on the M5 Touring: none. They are still not sure if they will bring it!
New BMW M GmbH GM Bruhnke said, that about 50% of the M cars are delivered to the USA, and Tourings are almost impossible to sell in the States, so they will probably not bring the M5 Touring.

News on the 6: M6 coupe will come, and probably the M6 convertible too!

Sweet. I don't like Paris but I love the car, so I may make a trip over.

I for one do not believe the price tag. 85K I'm in, 105K I'm out. C'mon BMW 105K is a bit much don't you think...a 60-65% increase over a loaded E60......Hmmmmmmmmm am I wrong here.

Talk about sticker sticker jtxc I feel the same way, $85K is palatable but $105K is way to much

I figured it would be in the MB amg E55 range which is 82K. I would think that's the closest competition they've got. For 105K i'll take a slightly used Ferrari 360. Sheesh

No way BMW will list the car at over $100,000. Latest car mag articles in the us estimate base price in the 80's. With optiions etc, Iexpect it will be around $100K.
