Hope this isn't a re-post, but here's a pretty interesting story I came across. Anyone in the area ever checked this place out?

Mystery of a ghost BMW dealership

homieG · 08-11-2011, 05:07 PM

wow thats crazy! wold love to go take a look at this in person one day!

Bimmerologist · 08-11-2011, 06:43 PM

That's unreal that it could go unknown for that long! Be interested in finding out what those cars are worth!

From the maxbimmer thread, they said he was looking for about $75, 000 to sell one of them.

I live 10 mins from there. Gonna check this out over the weekend.

achien · 08-11-2011, 07:08 PM

the owner is just treating this as an "extra" garage space...

PepE92M3 · 08-11-2011, 07:13 PM

Hmmmm....very interesting.

Bajan Loch · 08-11-2011, 07:30 PM

Anyone know where this is. I work in Oakville, would love to check it out.

Never mind...just read the Maxbimmer post....the address is in the thread.

Fascinating check out Google Maps shot http://bit.ly/nmz0VI

Bajan Loch · 08-11-2011, 07:57 PM

google got a good pic of the cars.....I'd love to see these.

O HELLA BMW · 08-11-2011, 08:04 PM

since the owner of the dealership just left all those cars there, who keeps them?

Dyno post

Gonna check this place out on Sunday, Fozzy ur comin with.

Auto Pilot · 08-11-2011, 11:27 PM

Very cool

I just sent the location to my car via Google Maps. Using BMW Assist in this way seems so right somehow.

Would be a neat place for a meet.

Havok_2011 · 08-11-2011, 11:48 PM

Whoa...that's really interesting...I want to pass by and check it out as well

E92LNGCGY · 08-12-2011, 12:22 AM

I want the white 6 series.

Spoolin335 · 08-12-2011, 12:29 AM

Sounds good, you're driving.

My old boss has a sick vintage 6 series with classy mods. Beautiful car.

For $75K I'll take a 2009 M6 though.

achien · 08-12-2011, 10:12 AM

Interesting to hear about them all these years later.
