last year my car go rear-ended, about a months before i was supposed to go to Russia for 3 weeks, so i waited with repairs and dropped it off at the shop on the day of my departure and told them to take their time, because i will be gone for 3 weeks. they were actually super happy about it and my car ended up waiting for me on a secure lot with 24/7 surveillance

If you bought it from Crevier BMW they can store your car in their structure and have it washed before you pick it up.

If you didn't get it from there just check with your dealership to see if they can do the same thing.

You could store it at my house, and i wouldn't drive it an inch *unless it had to be moved for emergency, etc, but my family parks our 650i convertible outside, so were in a nice area. You could buy a car cover and even leave it in my driveway. let me know! Thanks,
Izzy

good idea, i would doubt if Sterling BMW did it just because they are so small. i know when my dad bought his S55 AMG at fretcher jones they do a system just like that there where they take you to the airport and stuff

I would offer my house but we are full. You could bring it and park it in front of my house with the cover on. And I won't drive it either but will keep it safe.
