My cousins in tampa got a brand new kia sorento last week when they had their x3. Car was brand new but no BMW. We always tend to get a 535xi touring or a 328xi coupe up here in buffalo.

Classic BMW in Dallas just gave me a new Hyundai Sorento..and it's a POS. They only give BMW's to service customers who purchase from them. :-(

engine light came on today, nothing via iDrive. No hpfp symptoms either(had to remove my jb+, doubt I'll reinstall it, so it'll be up for sale soon)...and for my enterprise loaner (since I didn't get my BMW from this dealership)...

pontiac g3..

When we first got our X5 from a different dealer they didn't even want to give us a loaner.

This is at Towne BMW in buffalo, the car was bought from Holtz in Rochester, it was funny after the car was there I got some of those free Towne BMW plate brackets and never had a problem getting a BMW loaner since!

That g3 is horrible hopefully they get your baby fixed soon!

Just drove my friends loaner when his 328i's check engine light came on. They gave him an AW 135i at Long Beach BMW. Last time I got a loaner, they gave me the new 4x4 F150.
