Laurel BMW...ha.

They sold me a car with the original 7 year old battery, and I had to replace it a week later based on issues it was causing. I had a local dealer test it and it came back bad.

I asked Laurel to step up and cover the replacement, and they refused.

I then left an unemotional, fact-based review on google, and received an email from them the next day. They were quite hostile in tone and called my review "nasty," and said if I wanted to drive the car back (1500 miles) they'd consider a return (pending an inspection), but they were unwilling to cover the battery.

They are also the ones who sold me the car with that ticking speedometer issue. I was fortunately able to easily fix it, but what the hell...

PS -- it took them a month to get me my title (all they had to do was sign the dealer reassignment portion, I was the one who got it filed in my state and in my name).

Mr. BMW · 11-02-2017, 10:20 AM

They are a dealer! What do you expect? You guys are missing the fucking point! Look at the car and enjoy it! THE END

GeorgeA · 11-02-2017, 05:01 PM

Beautiful! Definitely want.

dkexige · 11-02-2017, 05:11 PM

Beautiful. Pretty much a perfect car for someone looking to catch-up on their M collection. At the same time, kind of a shame it will most likely continue to be a garage queen at this point.

aus · 11-02-2017, 06:39 PM

What yellow is that?
Looks too bright to be Dakar

tom @ eas · 11-02-2017, 06:57 PM

Agree although i personally couldn't own a yellow car but it is bad ass... would be a serious attention getter on the streets very cool car!
Check out that minty crisp interior!

thkfast · 11-03-2017, 12:51 AM

Should be a $45K car.

e1000 · 11-03-2017, 09:20 AM

only clicked on the thread because I read "yellow stripper"

6ixSpd · 11-03-2017, 10:10 AM

Unbelievable!!! Looks like Speed Yellow moreso than Dakar. 6MT, ZCP, and manual seats. Jesus Christ what a sick car.

edit: I see it is indeed Speed Yellow. Insane.

cmo_93 · 11-03-2017, 03:00 PM

Not at all a fan of that color...

KingFishy · 11-03-2017, 06:44 PM

5k even? Hmmm. Prefer Dakar.

You are swapping out parts designed by some of the top engineers in the world because some guys sponsored by a company told you it's "better??" But when you ask the same guy about tracking, "oh no, I have a kid now" or "I just detailed my car." or "i just got new tires."
