Well... it has been awhile since I've toured the BMW Niederlassung factory dealership in Munich. A friend and fellow Bimmerpost member qdtjant and I were at the dealership to pick up a test car. More on that in a later post. But for now here are some of the cars we saw on display at BMW's premier factory dealership.

One cool thing we did do was tour the underground garages of the dealership(with an escort). Our guide told us how every "werkstestwagen" or "zebra" test car gets it's first service done at this dealership's service dept. I found that hard to believe, but that's what he told us. Sorry we were not allowed to take pics in the service bay areas. Having the garages underground helps keep prying eyes away was what we were told. What I didn't realize was how large of a garage this dealership has. In each service "hall" - I counted 18 service lifts - plus some extra spaces where you could work on cars(no lifts). But what was interesting was there were THREE underground "halls"!! So 3x 18 service bays - plus I think another eight at street level!! What a place!

Sorry about the quality of my pics... I only had my little pocket camera and since we were there to pick up a "test car"... our time was kind of limited.

For anyone visiting the Welt... this dealer is just a mile or so away - and always has cool interesting cars on display. Often times a race car(on loan) from BMW Classic can be seen on display in the lobby. This time they just had a M6 for 180K euros! lol

Ok onto my pics... Enjoy!
