What the *&&%^^?

[Brisbane]

I asked the dealer about trading the Style 214s that came on my car (I have yet to pick the car up) for the Style 128s. He said they don't trade- fair enough- but then he stated that a modification has to be performed to make the 21 inchers fit. And that the cost (including the wheels which retail for $5,995) would be over $7,000. Of course I said no thanks.

But when I asked what the modification entails he stated I would have to call service....

Now I know this is BS- but has anyone else heard this line? I'm tempted to write BMW....

The dealer is VOB in Maryland BTW. They wanted us to pick the car up before the trailer hitch was installed- we said no. They said it could take months to get the parts. I said we'll wait. The parts arrived in two days miraculously. We'll probably pick it up this weekend.

Why does car buying have to be such an exasperating disgusting experience??
