What does a new BMW M5 cost in Arlington, TX?
A new BMW M5 starts at BMW’s published base price for the sedan, before options, destination, tax and fees. The new M5s listed at BMW of Arlington carry advertised prices with their options fitted, and the out-the-door total adds Texas motor vehicle sales tax, title, registration and fees.
The number you pay is BMW’s base price plus the options you choose and the charges that come with the car. BMW of Arlington lets you see that whole number before you visit, with BMW’s own figures and the Texas costs laid out line by line.

A new BMW M5 in Arlington starts at BMW’s base price before options
BMW lists the 2026 M5 Sedan at $123,300 and the M5 Touring at $125,300. Both are starting figures before options, destination, tax and fees, so they set the floor of the number rather than the number itself.
Each figure belongs to the trim it names. A Sedan quote and a Touring quote start from different lines, so compare trims by name before you compare prices from one store to another.
What does each BMW M5 model cost new in Arlington before options?
Each 2026 M5 trim has its own BMW starting price, and each price belongs to that trim alone. The M5 Sedan starts at $123,300 with 717 horsepower, 738 lb-ft of torque and seating for five.
The M5 Touring starts at $125,300 with the same 717 horsepower, 738 lb-ft of torque and five seats. Use the trim you want as the starting line for any Arlington quote, then add the options and charges that follow.
How much is a new BMW M5 out the door in Arlington, Texas?
Out the door means the selling price plus Texas motor vehicle sales tax, title, registration and the dealer documentation fee. Texas charges 6.25% sales tax on the sales price, minus any trade-in allowance (Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, 2026).
Tarrant County, where Arlington sits, falls in the $33 title fee group (Texas Department of Motor Vehicles, 2026). The base registration fee for a car or lighter pickup is $50.75, and the $1 Insurance Verification Project fee brings the registration line to $51.75, with a $4.75 processing and handling fee on top (Texas Department of Motor Vehicles, 2026). The local county fee in Tarrant County is $10 (TxDMV fee chart, 2026).
Texas sets no hard dollar cap on a dealer documentary fee. A fee of $225 or less is presumed reasonable and needs no notice to the state (Office of Consumer Credit Commissioner, 2024; Cornell Legal Information Institute, 2024).
In this hypothetical example, a buyer pays the $123,300 sedan price with no trade-in and no options. Tax at 6.25% is $7,706.25, and the title, registration, processing and Tarrant County fees add $99.50. The total is $131,105.75 before the destination and handling charge and the dealer documentary fee.
What options and packages raise the price of a new BMW M5?
BMW prices every M5 option on its own, so the total moves with each choice (BMW of North America, 2026). These options carry a price and are not standard equipment.
- M Carbon Ceramic Brakes: $8,500, and they cannot be ordered with 3M5 or 3M6
- Special Order Color (490): $5,000
- Frozen Deep Grey Metallic (C64) paint: $3,600
- Carbon Package: $3,100
- M Driver’s Package: $2,500
- Executive Package: $1,850
- Driving Assistance Professional Package: $1,700
- M Drive Professional: $900
- Carbon Fiber Silver Thread High Gloss Trim with Dark Silver Accent: $300
BMW also lists a destination and handling charge of $1,175 on the 2026 M5 as a separate line from the options (BMW of North America, 2026). Pick the options first, then price them against the starting figure, so the total is built on purpose.
Can you lease or finance a new BMW M5 at BMW of Arlington?
Yes. BMW of Arlington arranges leases and loans on the M5, and a lease and a loan both start from the same out-the-door total, so you can set the two side by side on one car.
Bring the options you want and your trade to the visit. That way the lease or loan is figured on the real number, not the starting price.
How does a new BMW M5 price compare with the M3 and the 5 Series?
The M5 Sedan starts at $123,300, the M3 Sedan at $79,300 and the 5 Series 530i Sedan at $60,500, all as BMW’s 2026 starting figures. Price and horsepower rise together across these lines.
| Model | Starting MSRP, BMW 2026 (USD) | Horsepower (hp) |
|---|---|---|
| M5 Sedan | $123,300 | 717 |
| M5 Touring | $125,300 | 717 |
| M3 Sedan | $79,300 | 473 |
| M3 Competition Sedan | $83,500 | 503 |
| 5 Series 530i Sedan | $60,500 | 255 |
| 5 Series 540i xDrive Sedan | $67,700 | 375 |
On the horsepower line alone, the M5 and the 5 Series 530i sit at opposite ends. A buyer choosing between them is choosing a different car at a different price.
Can a trade-in lower what you pay for a new BMW M5 in Arlington?
Yes. Texas taxes the price after the trade-in allowance comes off, so a trade lowers the sales tax.
In this hypothetical example, a buyer trades in a car for a $40,000 allowance against the $123,300 sedan. The sales tax falls to $5,206.25, because 6.25% applies to $83,300 instead of $123,300.
Get the allowance in writing before you agree to the price, so the trade is one clear number on the quote.
FAQ
How do you compare quotes on a new BMW M5 from different dealers?
Ask each dealer for the same lines: the selling price, sales tax, title, registration and the documentary fee as its own item. Texas requires any documentary fee to be disclosed separately, with the description the law requires close to it (Cornell Legal Information Institute, 2017). Lines that match make the totals comparable.
What is the destination charge on a new BMW M5?
BMW sets a destination and handling charge on the M5, and it is listed apart from the starting price and the options. It belongs in the out-the-door total, so ask for it as its own line on any quote.
What warranty and maintenance coverage comes with a new BMW M5?
The M5 carries BMW’s 4 year/50,000-mile New Vehicle/SAV Limited Warranty. BMW’s Ultimate Care Scheduled Maintenance program covers a 2026 M5 bought from an authorized BMW center in the United States for 36 months or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first (BMW USA, 2026).

Does a new BMW M5 price change from one model year to the next?
Yes. BMW’s base MSRP for the 2025 M5 was $119,500 before destination and handling (BMW Group USA, 2024). Each model year is priced on its own, so match the model year on any quote to the figures for that year.
