My Ride: 2013 M5 - Sakhir Orange / Black Leather.
I have a similar claim to fame. My car was in BMW's display at last year's Detroit auto show. My local dealer in Pittsburgh purchased the whole display. The window sticker even shows the car was built for the show. I was nervous about buying a car that sat at the show. Mine was in near pristine shape. Some of hte other cars they got were beat - ripped leather, missing knobs, etc. As I said, mine was near perfect. Best I can tell they didn't let people in it. The driver's sill was slightly scuffed/scratched, but the dealer replaced them all for good measure. Got a good deal on it and love it.

Err I may be wrong, but that sounds like a press car.
I was really looking for a 530 black on black, but than they had a demo 550i. Once I test drove it, I was hooked.

Yea it was a demo. I got it dirt cheap and they included extended warranty and extended maintenance for free.

Was it THAT good of a deal? I guess it had to be huh... extended warranty and extended maintenance is good.
It's pretty much fully loaded. Just lacks cold package and comfort access (which i really wish I had)
Brand new 530 black on black with just nav and sport was 60 OTD.
