Your post, in a nutshell, is exactly why BMW dealerships make me absolutely cringe. I was lucky to find a good one, but that was the exception and not the rule.

Continuing your logic, would it be acceptable to "nickle and dime" on a flagship if not an entry level car? Wouldn't your comment then be, "stop nickle and diming them on such an expensive car - you can afford it." I'm thinking there is no logical end to your thought or comment, though it might have sounded good to yourself when you typed it.

OP - keep shopping, someone out there knows how to do business and keep customers for the future .
It's simple, people with money don't sweat it like you, therefore your point about nickle and diming a flag ship car is moot. You step into a luxury car dealership then you step into their world, subjective and unfair as you might think it is. That sales person, 99% of the time, is all about the money. Or, money talks and everyone else walks. Case in point.
