All of that is determined if something like a loaner is valuable on the wholesale side. But since when does what you get as a "courtesy loaner" have to do with being luxurious. I drive a 7 series, x5, x3, 3's, 5's, and m's at least once a week, whereas the Lexus, Infiniti, Mercs, and other "high line" automobiles not so often. I personally feel that BMW does make certian things more enjoyable in each class compared to their competitors. Yet, trying to make all of you who have never even driven a high end bmw, or hell most any bmw hard to realize that it truly is a more enjoyable, quality ride.


    And in other news about wholesale...Guess who is number 1 at the Atlanta Auto Auction, West Palm Auto Auction, Nade, and, Riverside Auto Auction (4 of the top 5 selling wholesale auction in the WORLD). Yes thats right BMW.

    There is about 7 different factors in determing the rankings. If you want them i'll tell you, but you probably still will not understand and want to argue.

    ok.. thank you for letting me know that you can't come up with one valid fact why bmw is better besides your opinion. and please do NOT confuse performance with luxury.

    bmw is still luxury, however with a focus on performance. while mercesdes gears more toward luxury and class.. then you move on to lexus. they might not be the fastest on the road, but they are luxurious and more importantly RELIABLE... if im spending more money, its gonna be on a car that will last, not one that will make me seem like im richer. thanks.

    el oh el...

    dont get me wrong guys... i still love bmw's... and amg's... i've loved the e30 m3 for over a decade... then following i had the pleasure if driving an e36 M3 sedan with a few mods for a few years... i loved that car. but i hated how the headgasket broke at 50K, the tranny broke at 56K, the differential broke around 60k.. the aluminum key thing broke during the servicing of the differential.. and so on and so on..

    but Luxury is much more than lexus, bmw and mercesdes... true luxury is Bentley, Rolls Royce, Aston Martin... etc etc...

    Bentley's are overrated . I've driven a couple different generations of them. Only driven/riden in a new Phantom which was simply a-mazing, and driven a db7, db9, and vanquish. Yeah....i love my job.
