Things might be better down there because there are more dealers of brand X not too far away, but around here I've yet to come across a dealership that isn't run by morons ripping people off left right and center. Granted I haven't dealt with every dealer in the valley, but all the ones I have are terrible.

We sold 2283 Pre owned cars last year.......... I don't think theres anything wrong on the deals we give out!

Another thing is financing: goodluck getting personal loan on a private sale car
I'm with you in this sense TOFU.
Some dealers, and I believe yours provide a value with their service that will show for the life of the car. It's just that people get jaded by the Kingsway dealers selling scrap heaps and the blitzkreigs flipping cars with for 40% profit without providing any benefit or service other than financing for that massive mark up. A dealer should provide value for the premium.

I've had plenty of negative experiences at name brand dealerships, there's a shortage of quality people in the automobile sales field.

Pretty much any trade now a days
It's hard to find someone that wants to do it right and not just looking to make the most profit

I dunno who you dealt with at Ford but when I wanted to go test drive your e92 he was relentless, would not give up then told me I was stupid for not coming in. Couldn't help but laugh

I don't see it being an unreasonable price. Probably 1 grand or 2 less

Not exactly shitty. Getting to drive an e92 m3 for a few months for the price of a cheap rental is pretty lucky.
