Hi all,

My first post in bimmerfest =)
Today I got a Press release on new pricing for the 2006 model (Sept Production), and I wonder if any updated pricings are released for the ED program (Sept production). It listed out the new pricing for US MSRP effective after September.

I check out the price list on top and notice the ED invoice was increased by ~300-400? But that seems to be fixing some pricing error (since that price sheet still has the pre-sept US MSRP)?

I am planning to get a 525i thru ED early next year so hate to hear the price increase, but wonder how that will affect the ED invoice pricing. At least there's some updates on the 5 series for post sept production which is nice to hear. Somehow the 525i has a higher increase ($700), vs the 530i (which is a $300 increase), maybe some more standard equipment on 525i than now?

Thanks!

See below for press release (which may be old news to you all =P)
