Got a 528i for my loaner

So I took my AW 325 e90 in for the usual scheduled maintenance, never had any issues with it or anything. Anyways took the car in at 10:00 this morning and was given a 528 for my loaner. I have enjoyed playing with it so far (still have the car but have to bring it back by 7:00). The car picks up very nicely as expected. The idrive was fun to mess play with since I am without (don't feel like I am missing much though). I was really hoping for a 335 but the 5 series was a nice change. For a brief second I almost foresaw a possible 5 series purchase in my future instead of a M3, then I regained my sanity.

I was given new 528i as a loaner as well. It didn't seem much larger than the 335 in terms of cabin width; maybe 6 inches at best.

The steering wheel was so large, I felt like I was steering a ship.

It accelerated like a slug and made me thankful that I did not purchase a car w/iDrive.

Hardly a sales incentive.

You guys got 528i's for loaners just for an oil change? One, I can't get a loaner for an oil change and two, my car is now in for warranty work and I got stuck with a rental.
What the dillyo!?
