Walked into my local N.J BMW dealership to buy an M5 that they had in the showroom: 2001 Lemans/Lemans, 3500 miles. I was dressed very casually, i.e. jeans and a sweater. Stood for exactly 25 min until one salesmen came over and asked me , "Yes?"

I asked about the M5 and the salesman interrupted by saying "Maybe you would be interested in a 540 6 spd? Theyre very similar cars. M5 just has a more boy-racy body kit."

I simply walked out. I found that comment to be very insulting of my intelligence and knowledge of BMW automobiles.

Went to local MB dealer and they had a beautiful silver / black 2001 E55. Absolutely stunning. Salesmen treated me like a king.

I dont know what the hell is wrong with BMW dealerships. Oh well, their loss.

I love the E55. Never going back to BMW again.

A very satisfied MB owner,
A.F
