[Ezio]

Of course. Surprised its not being talk about more. This could also blown up the trade deal that was just signed.

Nothing like cutting off your nose to spite your face. Since, you know, a shit ton of BMWs are exported from the United States.

You missed my subtle yet polite dig. I’m saying whining about tariffs because you own a luxury German import is definitely a First World issue. I’m sure the Porsche owners are crying a river in the US.

[Phillies8008]

So because someone drives a German luxury import they shouldn't have a problem with paying 10-25% more for no particularly good reason?

Okay.

Yes! the new 10% tariff (increasing to 25% after June) *will apply to German-made BMWs exported to the U.S.* unless there’s an exemption or change in the policy.

No, of course not. I’m just saying that someone buying a luxury German vehicle shouldn’t label the whole country a shit show. Hopefully this trade war will be settled before too long and everybody can love or hate the country for its own merits. Living in this country allows me to buy a BMW in the first place and allows me to pay extra for parts.

What? It is a shit show, regardless of whether we can purchase a bmw. The ridiculous tariffs aren’t even the worst of it.

My sentiments exactly.

I wouldn't call a $70k BMW a "luxury" car when the average vehicle sales price in the US is now over $50k.

Hypothetical question:

If you placed your order for new production before this new tariff was announced and already traded in your old car as a partial payment can a dealer charge you a higher amount than what is written in your purchasing agreement and try to blame it on the tariff?

How would the dealer “try to blame” it on the tariff? Tariff would be upon delivery to the country unless there happened to be a carve out for orders for goods placed before the tariff date. I highly doubt there would be a carve out.
