I passed on that one, ended up getting one out of CA.
My M3 came from OH and while it's not too bad, there's been a few rusted nuts/bolts on the underside that had to be cut off and replaced to do certain jobs, they were too rusted to remove properly. Which is exactly what the shop told me on the X5, the corrosion doesn't impact much, other than repairs and extra time to access underside, remove/possibly replace hardware, etc.

Thanks for the reply. It's funny you mention that as I live in CO and have never purchased a car in state or from a dealer for that matter. The best places are Cali and AZ. I think I may pass on this one, the dealer is being weird. Thanks all.
