Brian,
No, no other owners involved. I had thought the 'European' price was 185,000 Euro (inclusive VAT) but I remember Aero prices increased as well before the cars were delivered. Furthermore when 185,000 Euro were announced VAT in Germany was 3 % lower. IMO the dealer is much too smart to offer a car above the list prices in an English magazine that hasn't been built yet. Normally if agents get greedy they sell the cars to friends and offer them for friends...
