It’s insane that such arbitrary regulations keep BMW from selling this car in the US.
I hear this all the time. Would any of you actually spend or have the money for one of these cars? This model and spec is about $200K in many European countries.

No Manual Transmision?

I went to the Swiss, German and Italian BMW build sites and the M3 touring is only available with an automatic transmission.

So much for the Ultimate Driving Machine.

Yes. I unfortunately jumped ship because the uber wagon is where it’s at.

It wouldn’t cost anymore than a loaded X3M Comp in the US. So pushing $90k.

Just because NL has ridiculous VAT and other taxes doesn’t mean it’s like that in the US.

Thanks.

1. G81 not available in the US
2. RS6 gives me everything I need for everyday driving (including an immense cabin)
3. Matt Watson has become annoying over the years

Otherwise, congrats OP, beautiful car!

Stunning build. Thanks for sharing!

As mentioned earlier, if parked at Costco this car would form an instant one-car exhibit with all shoppers later asking Costco car buying service to lobby BMW NA to bring this car to the US.

The reason america is cheaper is that they have limited model and production optiuons and crappier Mexican builds. Guys here can't afford the real german stuff.

This car is fantastic and unfortunately I am a buyer in a market that doesn’t offer it

I love the RS6 very much too but it is a different price point - and fairly hard to get in NA.

Both cool cars, well done.

It cost more than an X3M in Europe ... over 100k GBP without taxes.
