I completely agree that floor mats should be included in a $40,000 car. Unfortunately, they do not, and BMW corporate are the only people that have the power to change that, no dealer.
Sorry if you took what I said the wrong way, but I didnt mean to come off as a disgruntled salesman.

I know what he is trying to say as I am in sales also. If you buy a pair of pants at macy's and ask if I buy 2 pairs do I get a better deal the salesperson will laugh in your face. We have 7% thats right 7% markup in the car. Everyone buys stuff all day with a 200% markup and they feel like they are not getting ripped off but if a sell a car and want to make $1500 on it then some people see me as a theif. Go and try to buy a TV a 7% over cost and see what happens. I am saying as I think toolfan us saying is that people have such a schwed view of how it really is to sell cars.
