Complaint Review: Bimmer Classics

You must be a car dealer. Having the car inspected, why when things can be hidden. These guys are good at hiding defects. At least 10 to 20 different individuals that Bimmer Classics have ripped off. Inspection is irrelevant due to the fact they were going to sell these cars anyway; inspection only saves that one person, not the next. Again so that is an excuse for this dealership to sell a bad product. As for being the funniest complaint, a car dealership is the expert on cars. They know when a car is a peace of junk, or that it is only going to run for you a few thousand miles. Again others have been bitten from this dealership. Maybe I should have had the car inspected, but does that give them the right to sell junk.

What I think is funny, is that you shake a guys hand look him straight in the eye and ask him does this car need anything done to it, and he says no it does not need anything. Fact you will not need to spend any money on the car for a while. So what you are saying is that it is ok to lie and steal from people, along as you have the car inspected. That is SAD, but a normal statement.

As for the gentleman that thinks he is a mechanic, the throttle cable was almost off; there are two throttle cables on this model. The one that needed fix was barely attached. As for the water pump, put some sealant around the water pump or quick seal in the radiator, that would be enough to keep it from leaking for a while. Do I need to go on? You can hide defects, Bimmer Classics is good at it, and I'm not the only one.

As for the AS IS, when you are not up front with people in the beginning, AS IS just a cop-out.

What? Call and have it inspected, most likely they would know the person who would have inspected the car. That it is cop-out that just is justification for the dealership to go ahead and sell junk. This dealership has proven itself to be dishonest. There are three complaints' on just this dealership, and others that I know about.

So let me ask you would it of really matter, most likely not, my reason behind this is more than one person was bitten by this dealership. Plus they are supposable the experts, yeh: experts at ripping people off.

Did you have the car inspected by a mechanic before you paid for it? Did you sign the as-is forms that dealers make you sign on used vehicles so that they are not held liable? Did the dealer offer you any kind of warranty on the car? Did the dealer have any previous history on the truck? So you bought a car with a known gauge problem and you are pissed? It sounds to me like the dealer went by the book. Did you pay Kelly Blue Book retail for the car? Probably not. This is what most buyers face when they do not do themselves justice, do yourself a favor and take the car to a mechanic before buying it! Who would not have it inspected? Its a used car, pay the $75-$100 to have it checked out. On a 17 year old car did you expect to drive it and never have to do anything to it? It's a BMW, of course they break and they break often. Read the consumer reports. I got burnt and now just sharing my $.02

This is one of the funniest complaints I have read! Did you buy a used or a new car!

Just looking at your comments/list of problems you need to better inform yourself with these cars. (1) if a throttle cable was off you could not drive the acr! (2) If you ahve vacumn leaks, 9 out of 10 times if they are bad you would get a check engine light and you would not be able to drive the car because it would stumble, and to replace lines on a 17 year old car, not that unheard of. (3) A water pump DOES just go out and leak or lock up. If a car was stuck at half the whole time that would be a thermostat! (4) Exhaust work on a 17 year old car, not surprised! (5) You had to put a bulb in the socket, whoa! (6) gril was cracked which I am sure you saw upon inspection? (7) If you take the car to a qualified mechanic, they should tell you that, or they could have told you when you did a prepurchase inspection! (8) Was the check engine light on? f it was then that is your own fought! (9) When you picked up the car was the fluid squirting? Did you ask them about it when it was not working before you left? Sounds like you bought a used car, 17 years old. If those are your only problems looks like to got off pretty good. I learned my lesson once by buying a car from a dealer without getting it inspected, it bit me once and never again. Everytime I buy a car now I do my research and see what certain cars need. They will all need something h*ll, they are used.

Why not have the car checked out by YOUR OWN mechanic BEFORE you buy?

Many of these problems could have been discovered then rather than AFTER you bought it.

Kind of makes sense, doesn't it???
