Anything over about 5 years old or not among the dealers brands are generally sent to auction. Most dealers do not want to bother with having to do any level of service to a car they will make little or no profit on, if they can even sell it at all, so it goes to auction with no additional money being spent. Someone going to a Honda or Toyota dealer to look for a car are not likely to purchase a 10+ year old BMW.
