In addition to the BS quotes listed below, I've also gotten the following line in a Quote from Parkview.

Window Tint - 3,5,6 series, X1 = $499

This should be totally optional, but including it up front?? I think if a customer simply ask for a quote, they'll just tack on as much as possible unless you read deep into it and spot these BS charges out.

I'm very disappointed with the practice and professionalism here...

I had bought mine car from BMW Toronto about 3 years ago and the only fees that they charged at that time were:
dealer admin fee
Freight and pdi
ac tax
omvic

No full tank of gas (included in the car)
No wheel lock (included in the car)


Now, a blogger got a quote (for a M5) and they are listing these fees as mandatory -

DEALER OPTIONS AND CHARGES
Ride Green = $399.00
CARPET MATS = $130.00
Freight = $900.00
PDI = $1,295.00
Admin Fee = $299.00
Ontario Tire Stewardship = $23.36
Air Conditioner Excise Tax = $100.00
Green Levy = $3,000.00
OMVIC transaction fee = $5.00
Gas/Wheel Locks = $139.00
License Fee = $100.00
