| Best BMW Dealership?
I'm planning on leasing a new bmw this winter and I'm wondering which dealership have given you good/bad experiences in the past? (Looking at the 435i Gran Coupe)

But other than that I have seen every car on display in DTP just by cruising about in Richmond, thank you very much for collecting them together and get someone to sing a cover for "fuck you".

I've dealt with all 5 BMW dealers at one point or another, and my experiences have been positive for all except BMW Langley.
If I had to rank them, I'd probably say:
1. Park Shore
2. Brian Jessel
3. BMW Store
4. Autowest
5. Langley
Why I don't like BMW Langley? Well, I went in to look at a CPO 335i they had, after inspecting and test driving the car, I went inside for negotiations. When I gave them my offer, the salesman straight up told me "You should be looking at Hyundais if that's your price range." For reference, I offered $37k and the asking price was $41k. I was still willing to negotiate since I really liked the car, but the salesman refused to budge even a cent. I pretty much just got up and left. Unwillingness to negotiate + that Hyundai comment... Never going back to BMW Langley Again. I won't metion any names, but the salesperson is fairly active in the car scene as well, and many BMW owners will probably know him.
And in case anyone was wondering, I ended up buying my current car a month later for under $37k, with one third the KMs.

I'd be supporting tofu if I was in the market for a new car as well.
I heard he takes all his customers out for beers with his commission.

Revscene board specials: automatic price adjustment / reduction and/ or additional trade allowance / credit on trade ins.
This is the least I can do for you guys!
and of course I cut referrals too.

im out of e90/e92 M3's on inventory...
only have convertibles left....
I have a few guys on the board already asking to wait in line for one..
E9x M3's are a hoot to drive. Nice daily. Only complaint tbh, is they feel a tad heavy compared to an E36....
And not just M3's, I have board members buying other off makes and other M cars too! (Audi S4s, BMW 1M's, Lexus IS'es... etc)

As the owner of a shitty old BMW, I've gotten the best service for random question and part shopping at Park Shore. Autowest has been decent, and Brian Jessel has been far and away the worst. To be fair, it's been three or four years since I last went to BJ.

My only experience with BJ: salesguy left me alone to deal with another family while my testdrive car sat outside. Half an hour later, I let the receptionist know I was leaving.
Will go to tofu directly if considering an M235i later on :P
