Deal is WITH coupon. Hell, I had an alignment and old tires removed and new tires mounted and balanced for $120 at Auto Innovations.

Am I missing something here??? Free for life or something?? *scratches head*

Haha I know, when I got that in the mail I just started laughing out loud. We were actually making fun of that again today. Yeah, and just to think what it would cost without the coupon. :gag:

yeah, but that is a BMW shop right?

everything in a BMW shop costs twice what it should-


because- if you can't afford it, "you aren't worthy of driving a BMW"

dude.

those are dealership prices.

they have overhead...

cant blame them for that.

plus you have uncles and aunt... grannies and soccer moms who trust the dealer more than a hole in a wall place like AI.

but we know better... right?
