what kind of cars has bmw loaned you

balance · 12-10-2008, 09:01 PM

i went to Irvine BMW today to get my car fixed and they loaned me a Camry
wtf kind of bull is that

im just wondering..does every bmw dealership rent out carrollas and camrys?

Saigon · 12-10-2008, 09:09 PM

they only have a couple of bimmers. It really depends on the traffic of their maintenance. I received a Dodge Avenger which is worse than your Camry, so just suck it up and wait it out. No big deal.

BMW loaners? Like a Unicorn and Santa Claus they do not exist

duyh · 12-10-2008, 09:15 PM

i got a 335 before with nav and my friend got a 535 but to get that you usually need a appointment way ahead of time. if they dont have any bmws theyll give you a kia or something

My dealer has a decent number of BMW loaners. I've only need a loaner once and I got an X3.

rroof · 12-10-2008, 09:19 PM

I had a 530i wagon. Wasn't too happy about the wagon, but I'd be pretty pissed about an Avenger or Camry!

My previous dealer (Mercedes) was AWESOME with service. For an oil change/service, I would call them, they asked what I wanted from their fleet of loaners (usually at least 10 different Benz to pick from, mostly C-class and M-class), they drove to where I was (office, hospital, etc.) dropped off rental, did the service then dropped of my car the next day or later and the keys. I never even went into the dealer! They were GREAT!

Any loaner car would be nice.

Last time, Brian Jessel BMW just kept me waiting. Every 45 minutes, I asked them and they said my would be almost done. Waited 4 hours. They just didn't want to lend me a car. Piece of shit dealer.

TwiBlueG35 · 12-10-2008, 09:33 PM

At least you got a Camry, my father and I got a Dodge Caliber when we took his 530i in for service.

-=Hot|Ice=- · 12-10-2008, 09:34 PM

i always get a lowest optioned 328i as a loaner at southbay bmw

abcommercial · 12-10-2008, 09:50 PM

Check THIS out. My dealer didn't have any BMW loaners when I bought my '06, and I needed a loaner for almost a week (including the weekend) while they certified it, etc.

So they loaned me an Infiniti Q-_ SUV, which was older but really nice. Then, they sold it, and swapped me out with a $40,000 Range Rover, 2006 model. It was sweet. I loved having those loaners, even though I like my 325 better.
