Most any honest way to make a living with cars is attractive to me.
This dealer's overhead is so much less than a fully franchised Bimmer dealer. It's just himself and his wife and I contract with him to do the reconditioning. He's in a fairly small shop with zero mechanical help. All the cars he buys are from BMW Lease turn in's and they still have warranty. He's be doing it for 25+ years, so it must be a pretty good business.

Re: Couple of Non-Black BMW's

I only WISH that when my dealership offered a detail it would be done by you!

Your work is awesome!

BTW... I know black is nice but DANG I think the bimmers look much better in other colors. The white looks great and the silver is sweet too!

Well, heck: tell your dealer that I'll come down there for a Mother's sandwich (with debris) or Cafe Mesparo or Ralph and Kakoo's (don't know if I spelled that right or not) and detail his cars.

If that's all it takes let me know when you're coming down and we'll get together around here for a detailing meet AND food of course!

The Mother's roast beef debris sandwich is awesome! Don't you know I work a few blocks from there and have only been there once
And you were very close, it's Kacoo's but I knew what you meant.
