new M5 price

["Andrew D.Mendez" <AMENDEZ@xxxxxxx>]

I think prices in Germany are universally quoted
with the value added tax ("Mehrwertsteur") already
figured into the price (this may be a law???). I
think the tax is currently 16 per cent. 

I can't remeber what someone said the German
retail price of the new M5 was, but you can knock
16 per cent off the top before converting from DM
to dollars & have a pretty fair guess at the US
retail price (w/o destination, luxury tax, gas
guzzler tax, etc.).
