I am sitting here waiting for my car to get serviced. they didnt have a loaners but offered me a rental. they told me it would be about 3 hours.
anyhow, i am sitting here on their computer in the "lounge" drinking coffee and eating a pastry. they also have hagan daaz icecream, self serve. i assume the hagaan daaz is appropriate for a german car dealer.
they also have a popcorn machine.
makes up for the lost smoothie. anyone elses dealers have these "amenities"
anyone have any BMW questions? i can walk around the lot or the showroom and get answers. i have some time.
