Black- White - Grey - White. There wasnt a single car on the lot not in one of those colors. I'm just thankful I didn't get any of those colors, but rather Estoril blue.

Of note, they have a 2013 650i GranCoupe thats a dealer demo, and is discounted $16k. I suppose thats just an example of the profit margin on that car.

I think demo cars are the best kind of new cars.

For most cars yes. That being said, there is something to seeing the car with the odometer reading 0.1mi.

I thought about that as soon as I said that. Probably a special feeling. It's probably a good feeling showing BMW owners/potential buyers at the dealership that they don't have to get a boring-colored car.

Coupled with the original german plate, its definately an unusual car for the local customer base.

Ha, the fact that you have a German plate on it is hilarious.

"Wow, do they only offer that car in Germany?!"

-Every customer.

well i like the look, and it doesnt say something stupid like the fake ones. Furthermore, its a red plate(tourist), rather than the usual blue plate(resident of EU). Lastly, the plate is kinda glued on and i dont really feel strongly enough to try and rip it off the front end.

Glued? Why don't American dealers do this on the front instead of putting holes in the bumpers? Also, you must be a legend at BMW meets. The Euro fanboys must freak out.

no BMW meets yet. And yeah, its glued. Im glad they didnt drill holes in the bumper as I love the front end as is.

You must go to a meet then report back on your findings.

You live in one of the Carolinas right? I'm sure they do things year-round. (I have no idea if they do the same in NY)

My house is in Orange County, but I'm in Albany right now for college. If I lived in the Carolinas, I'd go out of my way to go to that dentist with the SLS.
