That's paid for by income and social taxes, not BMWs
Actually, it is paid for in part by car sales because you guys ALWAYS forget the fact that the posted prices in Germany have a 19% sales tax included.
And to help the point that it's not BMW but rather the government that makes the prices so different...
If you take a base M4 Coupe in the US and Germany...
US price is $69,150
Germany is 79,100€ but that includes 12,629€ in taxes.
So the real base prices from BMW...
US: $69,150
Germany: 66,471€
Exchange rates fluctuate so there's no real equal comparison.
