THEY WERE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR CPO.

"Demo"... uh, sure. If that means demonstrating how much abuse this car can take....

There is absolutely NO WAY I would EVER consider a car with a 55k BMW warranty. It is, as they say, the red letter of abuse.

ive seen plenty of vehicles with the Demo warranty. most of them were Dealer demo's, manager vehicles or sales team demos. which are used to rack up some milage to lower the cost of the vehicle. most M5's and "costly" vehicles were the Service Manager's and are usually all well cared for.

the ones that come from the track will state BMW MFG CORP as the previous owner on the DCS report.

How does a dealer get BMWNA to extend their warranty??? Why would they not so this for every single demo car??

In the thousands of posts I've read about demos, I've never seen a new car from BMW that became a dealership demo and then got a 55k warranty... my impression was that it always was 'BMWNA use' that leads to the extended warranty. I would defer to your experience however.

Are these cars eligible for CPO?

By 'DCS report' this will not show up as a 'carfax owner', correct? How would the OP get a copy of the DCS report
