I'm guessing that with the 535 having a $4000 Retail mark-up in base price, the
European Delivery Invoice is probably around $3800. So from the sheets I have
with European Delivery :

535i Base Price: $46,130
535i Invoice : $42,330 (approximate estimate)

Funny thing is that 10 years ago, this was the EXACT same markup on my 2000 323Ci
for European Delivery. Go figure....
