Canadian Pricing !!!!!

[M6-4KIX]

Hi Boys n Girls......... haven't seen anything here on the Cdn pricing sooooo... here's my order.

2012 BMW 650i xDrive Coupe Designed
Ext. Colour: 416 - Carbon Black Met
Int. Colour: NAEX - Ivory White Extended

MSRP OPTIONS
LX53 - 650i xDrive Coupe $101,500.00
No Charge Scheduled Maintenance 4yr/80k $0.00
ZBM - M Sport Package $3,900.00
ZBT - Technology Package $4,000.00
ZFJ - Executive Package $6,900.00
ZOR - Premium Seating Package $4,500.00
ZOX - BMW Apps $300.00
MET - Metallic Paint $0.00
LEA-NP - Nappa Leather $0.00
2VA - Adaptive Drive $2,500.00
4CV - Fineline Oak Wood Trim $0.00
552 - Active LED Headlights $2,900.00
TOTAL MSRP $126,500.00
SUBTOTAL $126,500.00

Let's add all taxes plus $2500 shipping charges.. and we're at $140 G's!!!

Canada will only get the 650i Coupe in the Xdrive version, no 6 speeds for that car!! The base price is $15,500 more than in the US. The B-O Sound system is a $6900 option ($3700 in US) now it's at $150G's !!

I contacted BMW Canada and their reply was... "Canada has a much more stable economy base and our sales here reflect that.... soooo... we can charge pretty much anything we want and you will pay!!! Great PR I say. They went on to say if I wanted a 6 speed, wait a year and buy a used one from the States!!!!! Kinda gives you that warm & fuzzy feeling, don't it???

Ordered it anyway without the sound system. Heading to Mexico for 3 months and will pick up the car end of Jan when we return.

Should be a nice ride.

i noe how you feel. my total for my 2011 x5 came to 95000! it sucks but thats the price we pay for living in such a great country!

[Superspeed]

Congrats! Nice car!
I guess the cold climate package is standard in Canada as it is here in northern Europe?
Remember to post pics in January

All I can say is: Count yourself lucky.

I ordered pretty much the same car here, and it is $260k. Nope, it is not the A$, it is worth about the same as a C$, and more than a US$.

The joys of luxury car tax, GST, import duties all compounding. But hey, that did not stop me!

Very cool headlights! I wish they had been available earlier
Looking forward to more photos.

Sorry about the lights! They are pretty neat and certainly different than anything else on the street. As far as color, it is really different thatn Saphire. I love Saphire, but this color looks black from a distance but up close is a very deep, dark blue metallic.

I have attached a few more photos for you.

Beautiful car I just love the carbon black color, the interior is awesome I almost ordered the cinnamon brown too but I really wanted the saddle back but it wasn't available on the F12/13 so I settled for the black interior, oh well!

The break in period is tough. However I take it on its first road trip to Dallas this weekend so I will get to 1,000 miles and then I can really have some fun!

I agree and was looking for the saddle interior I had in my '08 750i. I wasn't sure about the cinnamon, but am real pleased against the Black leather dash and black alcantara headliner.

M6-4KIX:
Wow - are those the sports seats in the M-package? I ordered the comfort seats, but seeing this - may be I should have redecided at that time
Well, too late now (and I am really happy with them anyway)!

M6,

My back seats dont look anything like the ones in your pictures. They look like the rest of the car. If you look at the pics of my interior they are just like that. Glad to still take a picture if you want. I can tell you the back seat is for short or very young folks. WIth the seat all the way back there is not leg room and due t the curve in the ceiling there is no head room if you are taller than 5'5".

As far as the exhaust note, it is sweet!! It has been a pleasant surprise and I really am enjoying it. You can hear it in the car with the windows up.

Well in Texas there are a lot of places to drive your car and open her up, let us know your experience when your finish with your break-in period !

Will do. I am hopeing to get to 1,000 miles after my roadtrip to Dallas on Sunday-Monday

[M6-4KIX]

Houston........... can you post a video of your exhaust sound????? That would be cool. As far as the seats go.......... I was referring to the back of the front seats where the headrests fitinto the seat rather than lay on top.

If you order the M pkg you get the comfort seats...... so I deleted the $4500 option for the seat pkg...... the only thing you get extra is the vibrating seats???????????

Thanx Ric

THe seats I have are ventilated, so not just the same. I will see if I can get a video of the exhaust sound.
