then again. I went into Calgary BMW the other day, and asked em how much they would give me for my 2011 X5 on trade in for a new 2013 X5M. guy told me 50k :nut: I was like dude. I just bought that thing for 101k 2 years ago. Dont think I'll be buying a BMW ever again after a depreciation like that. thats pathetic!

Not the dealership's fault, just the industry as a whole. Buy new=lose. Period. I was offered 9k for one of my trucks in trade, saw an identical one, same year, same shape, same km range, selling for 22k at a dealership. It is pathetic, big time but any one dealership isn't to blame.

Thanks guys, I appreciate the kind words. I do pay refferals in the event that anyone knows someone looking for BMW at either of our locations and they do the deal through me :).

Rich, Trades are always tricky. Before I even put gas and do a clean on your trade I need to certify it and that costs us around $5000 on an X5. That's before any reconditioning (tires, brakes, etc). The $100K + cars are always the heaviest to depreciate but be thankful it's not a cadillac or some sort of Infinitti, it would be worth substantially less.

With that being said 50K for your truck, assuming it's never been in any accidents and the mileage is reasonable is a tad low. There are also some special programs on the X5M. You're more than welcome to contact me if you're ever interested in one and we can go from there.

Thanks again for the praise guys :)

What's this certification? Is that for the extended warranty?

After buying a near $100K car brand new once I am never gonna do it again. Oh man that depreciation hurts so bad. Wait a couple years, 20K or so mileage, and save like $30-$40K. Think of all you can do with that haha :nut: :eek:

Just like that Bentley, you know you ain't the first but does it matter???? lol

Not always and not with all cars. Lux cars yes it's hard to get rid of them.

I've lost tons of money on lots of cars too but there have been 3 brand new cars I've driven for 3-6 months and got rid of them while losing less than $1500 each time.

I will post a more comprehensive review later, once I pick up the car - But let me say this for now:

Ryan Dandurand

is

the

best

Ryan has been helpful, professional and VERY EASY to work with. Guy had a great deal for me in minutes - He also went above and beyond and helped ensure I have wheels for a few days in between getting rid of my old car and picking up the Bimmmmmmmmmmmmmmer.

Guy is a hero.

Full review to come once I have the car in my hands, but so far Ryan has been better than any car salesman I have ever dealt with, from Benz to Hyundai (and I've owned a lot of cars!) - So far he's the only guy in town I'd recommend for BMW sales.

I thought I'd bump this thread for my purchase experience:

Ryan was great! He was able to get a better deal negotiated than I had expected, and had all the paperwork ready to go. The visit to the dealership to buy the car was quick and painless.

Now, this was the Friday before a July weekend, and when I got the car home I noticed that the car was less than perfectly detailed, which disappointed me a bit, coming from a luxury dealership... So I emailed Ryan to express my slight disappointment ...

Now I usually judge people not by their mistakes, but how they react and respond to those mistakes - So far Ryan has been great . My car is back in BMW's care as we speak getting a full detail, power polish and seal - Thanks to Ryan.

This is the type of service you recommend to people - A great sales experience, a good price, and the man who took responsibility for a small issue that wasn't his fault and turned it into a yet another positive aspect of the experience for me.

Ryan is now my go-to BMW salesman for all my family and friends. He's that good.

So how great was this "great deal"?

07-25-2013, 09:27 AM

Sometimes it's not all about the bottom line. I would gladly pay a fair prices over the lowest price if the experience/service is top notch.

Just finishing up another deal with Ryan. He is by far the best I've ever dealt with. Having dealt with a few other salespeople in the last year I have now come to appreciate what a dealer should be like. By far the best experience yet. Now hopefully Ryan can pull the impossible and get me my car by this weekend :angel:

The 6 speed was made exclusively for the North American market. There are hardly any in Western Canada. I've been told only 3 or 4. Basically, there are only 3 idiots crazy enough to buy a 560 hp, rear drive sedon with a 6 speed:poosie:

Honestly, I miss my 6 speed m3 like crazy, so I didn't hesitate for a second when Ryan told me he had one 6 speed M5 left. I'll post pics tomorrow after I pick it up.

You're going to love it!

Please post a review when you have a chance; I'm curious to hear how the 6-speed matches with the car.

When I bought mine, there were still quite a few left-over 2012 6-speeds across Canada. Did you get a '13? What colours / options?
