Yes, Saoudi people (gulf in general) have horrible taste: they love chrome... they put chrome everywhere... very similar to pimped US cars with 24'' chrome wheels...

Not feeling the M6 wheels as well...

I bet it's a unique experience to drive this machine... Enjoy dear friend!

Angry

The ~!@#$% salesman tried to fool me ... The BMW service manager is my friend and I went to check on the VIN number and found out that the car had THREE major accedints including replacement of the two fenders, headlights, steering column and windscreen! I got the info off the record coz he claims that this is "confidential"!!! I don't know till when we will have to deal with such liars who only care about their commissions!

Of course I went back and me the CPO showroom manager and he kept swearing that they didn't know and he was amazed how I was able to know such information.. and this is supposed to be the official CPO showroom!

Of course I am not taking the car and the search process will start over..

Uh fake M5? People really would try to sell a fake M5? How would you be able to tell if it's fake? Can't you just have them pop the hood and check the engine?

Sorry to hear ... or should I say glad you found out BEFORE you bought. Curious, still believe the 0 miles on that Z4?

I know it sucks totally when you're so close to getting something you want .. but its all for the better.

Better luck next time Essam! What about the X? Is it really gone? Even so, I bet you have another vehicle for transpo.
