I agree with 99% of what you have said.
+1. The one percent I take exception to is that there are exceptions. I buy a lot of stuff from Irv Seaver (which proves Flash's points re: internet, fed-ex, discount) etc. Never have I had Irv do ANY of the things most other dealers do. I've received HOURS of phone consultation, no charge. I always get return phone calls, usually within minutes, if ever there is a problem with an order. And the last part I ordered that was unavailable in NJ, was shipped from Germany and arrived within a week with no charge to me.
But as to Flash's point, this is the OLD BMW. Doesn't happen much any more. When BMW-NA chose to pull the plug on the old Las Vegas dealer, I learned self-reliance. Now, I don't really need the new dealer except for demo rides.
