IMO if you're looking for a used luxury car in great shape go CPO or private deal. For every 1 decent car at alternative used car dealers, there are 10 shady ones (just my personal opinion).

Much like some of the posts from the redflagdeals forum, that dealer does seem to sell cars that have been in accidents before. I went there with a friend a few years back when he was looking for an SUV and the one he looked at had clearly been in an accident based on the paintwork and some panels being off. In spite of that the salesman was rather adamant that the car had never been in an accident. Didn't even bother with a test drive, just turned and walked away.

Don't even go there

Not a decent one that's what I heard about them. Their cars are normally 20%lower than those from private or BMW CPO.

Don't believe their price listed on their website or on autotrader.

Last time I went there to buy a car with $15,000 tag, they added
addtional charge of $2,000 for PDI or something and another $3,000
for reconditioning. And there were more and more.

It turns out $24,000 total price bofore tax, with those additonal fees.
I don't understand how $15,000 becomes $24,000.

$3,000 for reconditioning fee was a joke. And the salesman there
let me wait for 30minutes while he's talking with his friend.

After a short conversation, I just turned and walked away.

Their Trader price got me to drive out to check out an e93 before i bought my e92. Like the guy above, it was advertised at like 49,000. they added on a bunch of numbers and came up with 59 +tax. I laughed, and left.

To be honest from the second i pulled up and saw the trailer they use as a sales office I was ready to turn around, only stayed to talk to the dude there since I drove all the way out there...

Id say stay away

I stopped by more than a year ago, sales rep showed no interest to provide any service, car was an US import with an accident history "no details". Trailer was not helping creating a positive impression.
I did not purse this car any further "ironically vehicle is still listed in their site", it will be nice to have a feedback from someone that actually had a transaction with them.

Really aggressive jerks. All of the cars are parked so close you can barely walk in between them. They advertise stuff that's not even on the lot or sold for months. I'd steer way clear.
