Recommendation? Morristown BMW Sales Rep, Euro Delivery exp?

Happy Spring everyone - Looking to replace my 2014 435ix, MSport, 6spd manual before BMW stops making manuals (2019 3 series announcement of no manual was very disappointing) ... Can anyone recommend a rep at Morristown BMW (I could /walk/ there, but other dealer recommendations also welcome). Likel...

FS: BBS Wheel 9Jx18 E60 5 Series (Rim Crack)

Traded my 2006 550i and cleaning up garage... One (1) BBS wheel (rear), very nice condition on face. HAS BEEN REPAIRED (see rear pic, 6 o'clock) and cracked at weld. Does NOT reliably hold air.

Re: CPO vehicle delivered with NO Inspection Sticker?

Picked up the plates/reg this morning and spoke to the dealership manager about my (several) disappointments concerning delivery. Many thanks to sgoatley2001e46 for the MVC link/info. I presented a copy to the manager who stepped away to confer with others, returning to inform me it didn't apply to ...

Re: CPO vehicle delivered with NO Inspection Sticker?

Selling a CPO car without the state inspection is ridiculous. Please share the name of the dealer. I think this is very unusual, but I could be wrong and don't want to do any damage if I am wrong. I'd like to investigate further before sharing. Still, hardly 'BMW-level Service' ... Hoping to hear a...

CPO vehicle delivered with NO Inspection Sticker?

Hello all - Recently took delivery of a 2014 435xi 6spd manual from an NJ dealership. The car was originally titled/sold in Pennsylvania and had NO inspection sticker on the windshield when I picked it up a few weeks ago. The dealership said they're required to strip the PA inspection sticker for sa...

First BMW without a spare tire ...

Hello all

Just picked up a 2014 435xi F32 and wondering if the Mobility Kit is
anything more than a compressor and a can of Fix-A-Flat?
Also saw some ads for a Mobility Kit specifically mention "not
for runflat tires" - ??

Thanks
Anthony

Morristown BMW - any salesrep recommendations?

Happy Holidays to all!

Wondering if any chapter members have a rep at Morristown BMW
that they'd recommend working with - it's time to downsize a bit
from my '06 550i 6spd Sport. Planning to look for 435/335 CPO coupe
with 6spd coming off-lease sometime soon ...

Thanks
Anthony

Hello All I'll be in Northern Italy for 2 weeks in early fall this year, flying in/out of Milan and exploring the Lakes region, Modena area and Venice.

Recycle value of alloy wheels?

Love my 2006 550i 6spd Sport, but the alloy wheels are not suitable for our NE pot-holed roads. In the past few years, I've repaired 3 of my 4, some twice. Last straw - wheel cracked 200 miles from home on a business trip (thanks to Catonville BMW in MD for locating a new replacement in one day, hon...

FIXED: Incontinent E60 - Power Steering Fluid Leaking

Good news - BMW agreed that blowing both rack seals at 48K miles
was unusual and picked up the cost of all parts, leaving the labor/alignment
as my responsibility.

All in all, a good deal from BMW NA and BMW of Bridgewater NJ.
