I'm talking of my experience here in
Los Angeles Ca. Dealers compete against each other trash talk one another....so just because you buy a BMW car it does not guarantee you will receive the same treatment from
Dealer X Y Z when you bought your car from Dealer A...
On the free loaner car situation you are priority at the Dealer you buy the car from, and those who take their cars to a different BMW from the one they bought their car, it's harder to get a loaner car even if you make an appointment with weeks in advance.
They'll give you a ride in their shuttle vans to your job or home...
That is why I get my cars from the closest dealer possible this will at least get me some perks that others don't get because they got their car from a different place.
