That's when you KNOW they are not even trying to earn your business.
IMHO, it's time to look at Audi and Mercedes as alternatives, assuming those dealer franchises are not owned by the same cheap-ass corporate parent.

Good luck,

They stopped trying to earn my business during covid. I had issues with almost everyone at the dealer. I talked to the GM about it several times. I expected more after buying 6 cars from a dealer over 15years.

There are 2 BMW dealers close to me. The other won't pick my car up for service so I pass on them and having to take an hour of my day to drive there and back twice.

I actually just got this about a month ago. Got it from a dealer in NYC. I haven't sampled the service of the local Porsche dealer yet, but am friends with one of the sales guys there now.
