BMW History. The BMW brand is synonymous with luxury automobiles and value. BMW car prices start between $30,025 and $103,225. The entry-level 1 Series and the top-of-the-line M6 model represent the cheapest and most expensive of all BMW models respectively. Since 1916, the company known as BMW today has held several different names, and has owned several other automotive brands.
