Car Help at BMW Beverly Hills

There is a 2007 650i convertible that has all the options my wife wants. Naturally it's way overpriced but I was wondering if someone was in the area or had some time to kill they could take a quick glance at the car for me. Nothing major, just to get an idea if it's as new as it should be - minimal bolster wear, no paint discolorations, etc.

Any help would be appreciative since I would be buying this car sight unseen from Dallas.

Thanks & PM me for contact info if you can make it by there!

Don't buy from them, their prices are just asinine. I got the same car for 20k less at Century West in NoHo.

i ended up getting a car from Ohio - supposed to be delivered today.

interestingly, when i inquired about the price at the BH dealership, and thought maybe $15K less would be more appropriate they said that was the right ballpark. i have no idea why they price their cars so high

Every Beverly Hills dealer I've dealt with (with the possible exception of BH Porsche) has priced their cars at absolutely retarded rates. To top it off, their service is terrible. When I had a Maserati, IF I could get the service manager on the phone he typically quoted me a 6-8 week wait for service. Generally I couldn't even get in touch with him.

Why do they do that? Because they can. You go into BH Ferrari / Maserati on Saturday morning and it's like Toys R Us on December 24th. I seriously think people WANT to spend more money and be treated like ****. For God's sake, when you can drive 5 miles and save 20k there's just no rational reason not to.

we did end up getting the car from a dealer in Ohio so all was cool. the car at BH BMW sold before we could do anything about it but sounds like I saved some headaches in dealing with them.

You most certainly did. Retards run rampant there, from management to sales staff to service and parts department.
