Exactly how I’d want it, it’s a hair over $92,000, or just $2,000 short of an M5. I’d take my personalized, fully-loaded 550i over a base M5, thanks very much.

Who knows, though. Maybe once I get to drive or ride in a current M5 I’ll change my tune.

Speced an M5 to my liking, damn that’s a lot of money. I can say that if I could, I would, actually I’d probably just get a used one, but I guess good luck finding it with a stick. I had been toying with the idea of swapping the E90 for an F10, but then I lost my job so that was the end of that.

And people still bitch and moan about the Cadillac CT6 being almost that expensive.

Right? Throw enough options at any luxury car and it gets stupid. We are the second owners of our X3, but the window sticker for it was almost $55k. For an X3.

Could be worse. Could be a Multivan Business.

Demand + badge snobbery + more optional features = higher msrp. Cars got better and safer and all but some prices that are charged are a fucking rip off.

A 550i starts at $66,000. I just optioned the shit out of this one, as I am wont to do.

not questioning your need/want for the all wheel drive system, but how much does that cost?

Or the Panamericana of whatever that is called. Who would pay 70k for a damn VW Multivan with plastic cladding? VW Transporter prices in general are a fucking joke. Even the MB Vito is slightly cheaper.

VW wird zumindest nie pleite gehen, dafür sorgt Deutschland schon.
