What’s this, a price cut on a new BMW? While base prices are up a couple hundred dollars on the just-announced and slightly reworked 2008 5 Series that went into production in March, the base price now includes the six-speed Steptronic automatic transmission that was a $1,275 option (except the 550i where it was already a no-cost offering).
Base prices including $775 freight, itself up $80, are $45,075 for the entry 528i (replacing the 525i), $50,175 for the twin-turbo 535i (replacing the 530i), and $59,275 for the 550i. Add $2,200 for all-wheel drive (528i, 535i) or $4,600 for the AWD 535i sports wagon.
