Of 68 one- and two-star reviews of other BMW dealers, 5 describe pushy sales or upselling, and 7 describe pricing, hidden fees or add-ons nobody agreed to.

Online appraisals are preliminary, and the final allowance depends on an in-person inspection, mileage verification and the vehicle history report.
