I'm just happy I found this forum before we leased our g05. I got exactly what I wanted at a much, much better deal than our local dealership was offering (that we almost pulled the trigger on before I found this forum).

and having done the PCD, I honestly can't ever imagine buying a car off the lot ever again. the whole PCD experience makes you feel so special, I cant fathom how more people aren't aware/don't do it.
I'm with you, but everybody is different. My very own brother who loves cars started his BMW life back with the BMW 2002. That car is what got me started when eventually I could afford a BMW. I research, test drive, negotiate, and get what I want at the right price. He on the other hand, can't be bothered. He impulse buys and then complains about what he bought and then does it again.
