BMW called asking to buy my car

EClayton08 · 01-23-2012, 05:50 PM

Anyone had this happen to you? I had a 866 number call me today so I answered curious as to who was calling and it was someone from BMW. They were asking if I still had my 07 335i and that they wanted to setup an appointment for me to bring my car in so they can give me an appraisal about buying it since most people want to buy a used car. Has anyone else had this experience? What should I expect? Are they wanting to buy my car just to put me in a new one or ? I told her my car was paid off and I wasn't interested in a car payment but she insisted I bring it in and see what they have to say.

They want you to get into a new one.

Sounds like they are interested in a car payment though

EClayton08 · 01-23-2012, 05:57 PM

So I should go ahead and cancel and not waste my time it appears.

3 years ago i would have really considered picking one up. I went with a brand new E92 for the warranty and all. it's amazinghow much your life can change in such a short period of time. I live with my folks in queens, but work, hangout, and have a girlfriend in manhattan. I'm looking to go back to school and if i end up in the city i just may move in.

then it's bye bye heidi.

And buy what? The next gen isn't here yet, do you want to buy an E90 months before they become the old model? Unless you want to buy a 5 or an X model.
