As they have told me, they had no clue Wurzburg was going to close. They said the rumors were always there but nobody thought they would actually do it. So, now all they got in Vilseck/ Graf area is a used car dealership. They also put a used car dealership in Ansbach. So, I'm sure they are hurting for business and have resorted to shady tactics to make sales. Can't really blame them, but I can still recommend against them though.

Illesheim is a little post off the A7 if you take the exit before the Rothenburg exit. It is right across from Bad Windsheim (where I live) so follow the signs and you can't miss it. We are a small community there, two Battalions of Apaches and that's it. You can Google Earth it pretty good, think you can actually see a few aircrafts in the pic. Oh, and if you see a 03' silver Nissan Maxima SE. That thing was mine (well, my wife's). Tell the new owner to take good care of it, or I'll put a Hellfire (AGM-114N) into his house. He's in Bamberg somewhere.

Ah ok, I didnt know that. Thats actually funny that you mention the used car dealership because I went to Vilseck lastweek for a school and when I passed it, I was thinking to myself if you can order a new BMW there and how is that little shack going to be able to take care of everyone on Vilseck/Graf. Wow, they really screwed up there. lol.

Yeah lets keep the missles in the middle east mkay?

By the way, is Illesheim closing since theres barely anyone there? We have 173rd Airborne Bde in Bamberg so I doubt that will ever close now.

They reordered an new one and it was just delivered yesterday but I really think they should of told me about it!I now have to change my VIN # with the bank and cancel my insurance and set it up again. This is really a hassle for me because I'm in iraq and i dont always have accses to phones and Internet. I wrote a letter to there manager telling them that I should be compensated in some way. What do you guys think???

i got my BMW through military car sales in K-Town, everything went smooth, but that is jacked up they should give you something for your hassle.

Hey man, despite this happening to you, remember that a badass car is waiting for you when you get back. I'm assuming you're married otherwise you woulda got a coupe

If they re-sold a car that you had alrady bought, that is theft.

P.S. THANK YOU!!!!!!

Wow, that was an extremely shady move on their part...

So how did this all play out?

I'm in Iraq now and am picking mine up in NOV. I only paid the $2K and am closing when I get back.

Either way I went through Stuttgart/Vaihingen Military sales. Good professional people who care about the customer, I think of my CA as a friend. Of course we have known each other since 2004, so buying from anyone else would be unthinkable.
