what was the mileage on your odometer when your brand new E90 was delivered to you?
Hey guys I'm new to the forum. I made the mistake of dropping by the BMW dealer the other day. I've pretty much fallen in love with the new E90's and have been giving serious thought to ordering one. One question I had was what was the mileage on your car when you received delivery? One of the sales consultants at the dealer showed me a car with 350 miles on it and told me that was normal coming from Munich and all. I said I thought it was a demo and he assured me it was not. So if he's right they must drive these things all the way to the port.
TIA I'm sure I'll have more questions but I'm finding this site pretty helpful at answering them if I search around before I ask. |

It's been done.
http://www.e90post.com/forums/showth...ghlight=milage BTW, mine had 7 miles and I bought it off the lot. 350 is very high and your salesperson appears to be a liar.

Woah...no way...350!!
Mine had 5 miles. Its a great car, I love it. That sales guys is very suspect. You may want to go elsewhere to finalize your business.

2 miles. Any I told them i wouldn't take it if it had more than 5 miles on it. 350 Miles means it's been test driven by about 25 people, or someone at the dealership took it for the weekend.

Why do CA lie about stuff like this? :mad:
Almost like an insult to the consumer thinking that the consumer will be dumb enough to believe his lie. Be much better, if he just tells the truth. And dealers wonder why they have bad reps.

at it, and you like it so much that you want to buy it. As for 350 miles, maybe it was test-drive vehicle. Mileage seems obvious for test-drive vehicle's mileage. Some a$$ dealership will trick you and differenciate "demo" and "test-drive" vehicles. They would say Demo vehicle was vehicle that has been used ALOT, driven by non-buyers, workers, customer loaner, etc. While they would say Test-drive vehicle was mainly for quick test drives for customers who were willing to buy the car at the moment, or were seriously considering. Something like that. I had that experience(not BMW though) before. I said to myself "oh bullshit" multiple times while the salesman was talking about it the whole time.
