Recent Reviews from BMW of Dallas

This was the worst car-buying experience I have had in my life. I and my fiance traded in his BMW 335i convertible to lease a new 3-series. They nickle-and-dimed the trade-in value to nearly nothing. We're a young couple, and I think for that reason, they didn't take us seriously. (I'm an attorney and he's an Air Force officer; if we weren't serious about leasing his BMW, we would not have been there.) I would go so far as to describe the sales manager we dealt with as rude and condescending. Unfortunately, our poor experience did not end when we left the dealership. When we got home from BMW Autonation, we realized we had left our garage door transmitter in the 335i. We immediately called, and they said they would mail it to us. A week later, we hadn't received it; when I called to ask about it, they said our sales rep had three identical garage door openers in his drawer, and they didn't know which was ours, so they couldn't ship it to us, afterall. I advised my fiance to double-check with USAA about any changes to his insurance, since he had switched from a Pennsylvania to Texas registration. Good thing he did, because we realized at that time that BMW Autonation had wholly failed to inform USAA of his new lease. Finally, this morning, a couple of days before his temporary tags expired, we called to check on the status of the permanent tags. They informed us that they received the tags last week, but just didn't get around to mailing them to us? My fiance is going out of town today, and the tags will expire while the car sits at the airport. So, he'll be driving hours back from DFW with expired tags, thanks to this dealership's negligence. My fiance is a loyal BMW driver. We love his new car. But, we're transplants from the east coast, where BMW dealerships are a dime-a-dozen; BMW Autonation has the largest inventory for hundreds of miles, and I think they feel entitled to take advantage of that. I hate that this is our only option for BMW purchases and servicing. Honestly, the trip to Austin would be worth never dealing with these folks again.

****UPDATE**** UPDATE: A few MONTHS ago, I decided to pay BMW of Dallas a friendly visit after speaking with the service front desk and service manager VINCENT. Before visiting the location, VINCENT had called me right after I went posting reviews about my negative experience with him and his team telling me that he would personally see to it that I would get 100% reimbursement for their poor service (that could have easily put me in danger) and lack of professionalism from my entire experience with both him and his team. He then begged me to take down all of my reviews and honestly, I should've known right then and there that this whole thing was BOGUS. After telling him that I'd think about removing my reviews (I had zero intention of doing so), VINCENT promised me that no matter what, I had his word that he would uphold and honor my 100% reimbursement. So now... let's fast forward back to my friendly visit post phone conversation with VINCENT. A month has passed and I have yet to receive the mailed check that VINCENT promised me. I visit the location cool, calm and collected, asking to speak with the service manager. Of course, you can never get a hold of him (I'm sure he avoids 99.9% of the customers he blatantly lies to) and he, unfortunately (but not shockinis not answering his office number... but to my luck, guess who happened to walk riiiiiiiight past me while I'm at the desk? The man himself. VINCENT the MAGNIFICENT (Haha, I'm funny). So, pay attention people. This is where it gets juicy. I (still playing it cool), say hi. Give him my name. Ask him for an update. He... (wait... I gotta laugh at this) LIES STRAIGHT TO MY FACE TELLING ME THAT THESE THINGS TAKE TIME AND THERE'S PROCESS/PROTOCOL yadda, yadda, yadda. And I get it. I'm well aware of how things work but I knew VINCENT was lying straight to my face. He, get this. He told me that he had literally mailed the check the day before. This was in JUNE. It's almost OCTOBER. And nothing. And you know what? It's not even about the money. It's the principle. Don't give me terrible service, give me your word on fixing things, beg me to take down my review, lie to my face, and then fail to follow up at all. I highly encourage anyone who owns a BMW to stay away from this place and especially VINCENT THE MAGNIFICENT and his team. Take your car elsewhere, even if you have to drive to BMW of MARS. This updated review is all the closure I need. Excuse me while I go post to all of the additional review sites. Oh, and hey VINCENT. If and when you (and your staff) see this, DON'T CALL ME. Bye, FELICIA. *drops mic *picks mic up *drops it again *kicks it ****ORIGINAL REVIEW**** ZERO stars if I could. The majority of the team I've worked with is ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE at communicating with their customers. I shouldn't have to leave 1,000 voicemails to my account manager and receive ZERO follow up... EVER. Even tried speaking with the managers and literally everyone I'm put in touch with simply passes me around to the next person or the next voicemail. 1. Took my car in for repair, they told me it was fixed... next thing you know, my car is on the highway shaking furiously THE DAY AFTER I spent TONNNNS of money for repair. And, uh, not to sound dramatic but... I could've been injured. 2. They called in a tow from my home to their location and told me I would not have to pay for it BUT GUESS WHAT???? $150 added to an additional $100 repair fee from what they were supposed to had originally been fixing when I FIRST PUT THE CAR IN THE SHOP! What in the... 3. They seriously had the AUDACITY to tell me to pay the tow fee now and I'll get reimbursed later... HAVE I BEEN REIMBURSED ladies and gentlemen?! NOOOOOOOOOOOPE. 4. I've been calling and calling to receive proof of tow so that I can submit the reimbursement but my account representative WILL NEVER a) pick up the phone or b) call me back. Working with them has been extremely frustrating and I'm so over that place. RIDICULOUS. I'd expect better from a luxury dealership. FAIL. DON'T DO IT.

DO NOT USE THIS SERVICE DEPARTMENT! PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU CONSIDER TAKING YOUR CAR THERE! BOTTOM LINE UP FRONT: THIS SERVICE DEPARTMENT TOOK ADVANTAGE OF MY GIRLFRIEND, AND TRIED TO DEFRAUD HER OUT OF NEARLY $4000 OF REPAIRS My girlfriend drives a 2013 328i. A week ago, she got a drivetrain error so we took the vehicle in for service. Our service rep was Jason K. The codes revealed we had a malfunctioning wastegate for the turbo. The BMW of Dallas service department quoted us a price of $976 for the replacement of the wastegate. ($600 part, $376 ((2 hrs.)) labor, those numbers will be important later) Thinking, "Well I drive a BMW so this was going to be expensive" she authorized the repairs. Without getting more technical, the replacement wastegate revealed that we needed to replace the entire turbo system. The service department informed my girlfriend that the replacement turbo system would include a new wastegate, and therefore the previously purchased wastegate would not be required. The quote was $3877 for turbo replacement. ($1960 parts, $1917 ((12 hrs.)) labor) A quick google search revealed that the average cost of replacing a turbo on a 2013 3-series should have been approx. $2000. Therefore, I called the dealership and halted repairs while I conducted more research. Here is what I found: OEM Turbo and the installation kits are MRSP for $1419 and $121.01 respectively and has a wholesale price is $1038.91. (Which some BMW parts department will offer you) There is a $900 dollar mark up on an $1100 worth of parts? Do you remember the $600 price tag on the wastegate from earlier? The actual MSRP for a wastegate is $303.81. (I found places to get it even cheaper, but I digress.) Then there was the service labor issue. Google searches, discussions with 3 other authorized/certified BMW technicians, and a check in the All Data manual states that a turbo replacement in a 2013 BMW 3 series should be 6.6 total hours, not 12 as we were misquoted. So let us do some math together. If labor at BMW of Dallas is $160 per hour, times 7 hours (I rounded up for the benefit of the doubt), total labor should have been calculated to be $1120, not $1917. Parts should have been, at most, $1540 not $1960, as we were misquoted. With a total estimate to be $2660 versus $3877. However, what happened to the labor charge for the work they did on the wastegate previously? Just to make sure my argument is not shortchanging our "friends" at BMW of Dallas, I will add the labor charges I paid to the service department for the wastegate to my above quote. $2660 + $376 = $3036 versus $3877. What is the $840 dollars leftover paying for? Alternatively, they could have offered the whole sale price of $1038.91 for parts, and charged her the correct 6.6 hours of labor (like the manual says) for $1056, with a total cost $2094.91 versus $3877. In addition, waived the 2 hours of labor they wasted putting on the misdiagnosed part. However, they did not.... I asked them to put on the original wastegate. I paid them $500 of labor (We needed to pay them to take the new wastegate off and put the old one back on, even though that was not the issue, that’s fair.) I limped the car to another service department, and where we paid roughly $2100 for the turbo replacement. The service completed the same day. At $2600 total cost, it still came out cheaper and faster than BMW of Dallas could manage. I understand when you take something to a certified BMW dealership you are paying for a higher level of expertise and expected higher level of quality. I expect to pay $160 an hour for labor as an example, however I do not expect to pay for nearly an 85% total mark up in labor hours and parts cost. This treatment is fraud and dishonest, and unworthy of my business. Isn’t capitalism great? Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else...

I've had THE WORST, deceitful, and disrespectful experience with BMW of Dallas's service when I brought in my X3 for major repairs in February. It took the dealership 3 full days to diagnose the problem - an oil pump chain break causing loss of oil compression. The service adviser was very short and abrupt in responding with a complete and informed answer. His demeanor from start to finish was hurried and dismissive, which indicated he felt my legitimate questions about my own car were a waste of his time. He also quoted me over $1K to diagnose the problem, which involved taking the engine apart. Upon discovering the problem, I was quoted a blanket price of $6.5K to fix it, which included a $280 + labor rate per hour. This prompted me to research other service providers in the area, the majority of whom charged about $100-$120 per labor hour. Needless to say, I was very disappointed to discover BMW of Dallas blatantly charged me $150 extra per labor hour, with no concrete evidence of this being required. The only explanation I received was that the labor was being charged upon the "matrix grid pricing", a term which equates to a complicated pricing schedule that the customer is generally unable to intelligently discern. I brought my friend, who is more familiar with car mechanics, to understand exactly where these price points originated. The diagnostic and service quote drastically changed upon my MALE friend's presence and questioning at the dealership. The diagnostic rate changed from $1,100 to $800+, and the labor rate changed from $280+ to $170 per hour. We were never provided logical rationale as to why this change was possible. This made me conclude it was because I was a woman, who did not have the foresight or specific car knowledge to discern a scam, and therefore I was being charged the going rate for fools. At this point, it became apparent BMW of Dallas was no longer trustworthy enough to earn my business for this, or any future, services or car sales. I also became concerned that I had been cheated upon originally buying the car in 2014. I chose to pay for the diagnostic performed and tow my car elsewhere. I was sold a car that BMW of Dallas knew would have these types of failures on a consistent basis. The service manager informed us this failure was typical at 50,000 miles (my car is now at 80K+ miles), and would most likely occur again soon in the future. And yet, I was still expected to pay $6.5K to fix this now, only to come back for the same issue in the near future. Nowhere during this interaction was I given alternative options to either trade in my car for a more reliable vehicle, consider purchasing extended insurance to cover this going forward, or consider another option to avoid reliving this experience again. I believe the best advice I received was from the tow truck driver who hauled my car off to another shop. He advised me to fix it, sell or trade it in for a reliable car, and never consider owning a BMW or doing business with BMW of Dallas again. I took his advice also passed it on to my friends in the market for a luxury car. I will never recommend BMW of Dallas or the BMW brand to anyone because of its repeated design failures and lack of reliability. I hope the management at BMW of Dallas improves customer service practices going forward to ensure customers are treated fairly, respectfully, and free of bias.

The experience has made me rethink owning a BMW. It’s sad as I have owned a BMW for the last 12-15years. I was misled twice and it’s pathetic that they do this to their so called loyal customers. Best advice, ask the rep on the phone to send you a print showing your reason for the service. If not you will pay for their lack of exp or laziness. Second, ask them to explain in detail what they will get done, why and how much. I scheduled a service request back in November as I had an 'Autocheck' warning. when I came in, I informed the guy at the entrance - appt for the auto check and that they should see if the power lag I am facing is due to that code. I get called a couple of days later and it’s the clutch. I go in Pay $115 and take the car home and get it fixed. Late Dec I find that the Autocheck light/warning was never cleared. It shows a mileage count so I knew it wasn't. Once I was back in town I call and set up an apt – Saying I need you to remove the Autocheck warning as I have already paid for the service and was not removed. 2 days before the appt my check engine light comes on. So while dropping the car off I mention - I would like the check engine looked at while clearing the code. I thought the Check engine was due to the Autocheck not being removed (It hit 2000+ miles overdue). I'm told the CE light is due to the DMTL pump and have to pay $700. I could not afford it at the time so I tell Donna (S.agent) to clear the codes and that I will pick up the car. Again paid the $115, which this time was told it was for the diagnostic check for the CE light. I leave the dealership and come to find that both the CE light and Autocheck light are still on. So I call. To my surprise, I am told then that there is a different method to clear the Autocheck (Connect to a diff computer). This will take 90min and will cost $225. That the CE may have just come back on but also could be that service never cleared it. SO I state my case, why am I paying an extra $225 when this was what I came to get done back in Nov. No answers other than me being yelled at saying I came in to check the clutch. Why would I come in if I knew it was the clutch? And what does the appt card say..... it just says check code. Which for BMW is a completely different thing. Knowing this, would you not thing that there service department would do a better job from point A to Z. I then found out that this happened both times. Plus the service crew at the bay don’t really listen to you when you hand the keys off.

On Monday morning (by appointment 11/19), I took my 2006 BMW in for repair!The service advisor was not at all familiar with the BMW product... & The Technician failed miserably. The left front headlight casing was completely replaced. The problem is that it was not calibrated at all after being replaced. Because this was a complete headlight replacement, I didn’t expect it to match the older light completely... But when you’re driving on two-way streets and oncoming drives are flashing their lights at you because they can’t see, you know that the calibration is off, or not done at all! So when checking the light projection myself, the new light seemed to be pointed way left of center. What the hell??? How can this happen? Not safe at all, and it looks to me as if there was no effort to calibrate it; not to mention I waited 7 plus hours for the 1st repair (arrived at 9:15am, left at 4:20 pm)... way too long for the time range given to me at the time of repair (a couple of hours at the most is what I was told). Another problem was that I explained thoroughly to the service advisor I was missing the “access panel” underneath the front left tire and that it also need to be replaced. The access panel allows entry into the light casing... and if missing, it leaves a big hole which can expose some of the electrical components to the elements. Well it’s funny how I was given a diagnosis of all the current problems my older car has, but the concerns that made me bring the car to your dealership in the first place were totally ignored or mismanaged. The advisor had absolutely no clue as to what I was talking about, but simply agreed to take care of the problem. What in the world is happening here??? After waiting patiently all day long, neither problem was resolved! New light installed, but not calibrated... access panel still missing! And with the hefty repair price tag that went along with these services, I find it all unacceptable... So I had to return the next day (Tuesday 11/20) and wasted 2.5 more hours waiting for corrections to be made... totaling ruining my day! Then your your service advisor tries to explain the problem with the dumbest explanation ever (which confirms that person's lack of knowledge about BMW products)... The advisor says that one light was going to be lower than the other because it is newer. What the hell is this person talking about? Really??? Then why are you telling me it’s fixed correctly now and that the projections are now level. I can only assume that person (service advisor) thinks I'm an idiot... Just say anything to the customer, it's BMW so he'll believe it? Well, I promise you that I am not an idiot! I feel totally insulted, disrespected, and dissatisfied!!! So much in fact that I won't consider this dealership for future repairs or purchases... I really like BMW, but they failed me, and insulted me all at the same time! The funny thing is that it’s almost time for me to purchase a new auto... tell me, why would I ever consider a return to “BMW of Dallas” or maybe BMW at all? Andre’

Is there 0 stars?..Because I'd like to give 0 stars...DON'T COME HERE. I WISH I READ THE REVIEWS...The absolute worst BMW experience I have ever had. I came here because it was about 10 minutes away from my house--I usually go to BMW of Plano. My right front tire had been slowly losing air over the last 3 weeks or so, and within the last 2 days had been at 5psi [flat] when I would wake up to go to work..The other tires did fluctuate to lower psi due to colder weather as expected, but the right front tire kept going flat. I work nights, so after I got off around 730am my tire was flat again, so I brought my car in. I explained the situation to the advisor which I thought would be an easy "slow leak" or "nail in my tire" diagnosis. I had my car brought back to me and was told that there was nothing wrong with my tire. I again explained what happened over the last few weeks, and that it wasn't possible for nothing to be wrong with the tire and asked if they could take a look at the tire again. They took it back again and brought it back up after about 10 minutes and told me that there wasn't anything wrong with the tire--they did a thorough inspection of the tire and they didn't find anything. They said it just may be "weather-related". I'm dead tired at this point, and let them know if I woke up the next morning and found that my tire was flat again I would not be happy at all. Went to sleep and woke up, and SURPRISE! My perfectly fine tire was flat. :/ So I had to air up my tire to get to work, air it back up after I got off (because it went flat AGAIN while I was at work), and drive to BMW of Plano, because I didn't want to waste a single iota of time going back to BMW of Dallas. Especially since because I didn't have an appointment 24 hrs out, they wouldn't give me a loaner car [which was also to my annoyance the previous day when they told me that]. Went to BMW of Plano, I thoroughly love the seamless service drive experience and customer service from their staff. I got checked in...told my advisor what was going on--he put me in a LOANER...and guess what, upon inspection of my "perfectly fine tire"--there was a BOLT stuck in the CENTER of it (HOW DO YOU MISS THAT?!?!).... Got my tire changed out and picked up my car late that evening. I should have just stayed going where I have been going, instead of trying to go somewhere for the sake of convenience. I went back to BMW of Dallas before I went to pick up my car to speak with the Service Manager, and when I walked in nobody greeted me--I was walking around to find an individual to ask if I could speak with the Service Manager....found this nice young man who walked me over to where he was and let me know he'd be with me in a few minutes...Sat and waited about 15 minutes..asked a service advisor I saw if the Service Manager was available....he walked over to his office and said he wasn't in there, and then points to the service drive and says that "He's the guy in the blue suit" and that he's talking to someone, he'll be back inside soon..and goes back into his office...[Okay??...thanks for that..] Waited another 10 minutes..walked back over to the nice young man who helped me in the first place and let him know nobody had came over to speak with me yet...he checks and sees that the Service Manager is with someone else. I had more errands to run and I left my contact information with him and I also left a voicemail for the Service Manager and have yet to be reached out to. So in a nutshell I would never be back here for service...I gave them 2 chances to fix my service issue and they failed. I don't trust the competence of the Service at this location if you can send home someone who CLEARLY is explaining a slow leak/nail in tire issue and tell them nothing is wrong with their tire--thereby wasting my time (because I had to take more time to get this checked out AGAIN). This location seems to be lacking in basic customer service and follow through...I will gladly drive the extra 30 minutes to the BMW of Plano to have any service issues addressed...and I was thinking about using the equity program they have here...but judging by what I have encountered here a few days ago, and the reviews I see here, I think I will pass.

I bought a car 4 weeks ago “BMW 328i 2011 ” and it was working smooth and excellent without any problems at all, then I decided to do oil change at BMW Dallas dealership although the system say the oil change is not due but I just want to be on the save side. so last Saturday 18-Nov-2017 I brought the car to the BMW dealership and they checked my car and told me the cars doesn't need any service and the oil change is not due yet but I told them I prefer to do the oil change just to have rest of mind. so they did so and when I got my car back I have noticed that there was very low sound inside the motor but I thought it is just because the car is not warm yet and since there is no alarms or check engine alarm on it I didn't pay a lot of attentions and I parked my car and I didn't use it over the weekend since I used my other car. so on Monday when I was driving to the work at the morning the noise started to grow up more and more and the service engine light came up so I called the dealer and told them that I am bringing the car back to be checked since there was no problems at all before I do the oil change, so I brought the car back on Tuesday after work at 6 PM and the next day "Wednesday 22-Nov-2017" they told me that they found metals in the oil when they drain it out and the motor is totally failed and they told me it is not their responsibility although when they checked the car before they do the oil change they told me that there is nothing wrong with the car and the service is not due yet. So I told them what they are saying doesn't make any sense at all to me! how can totally functioning car that has been working fine for 4 weeks without and problem or alarm have motor failure after oil change!! Then they told me it’s not their problem and it’s their responsibility at all then I asked them to talk to the manager and he told me the same thing then I asked them to talk to the general manager “Tania Eubanks” and she told me that there is no way they have done anything wrong and the problem was pre-existing which is doesn't make any sense because if it was really there before I would get alarm before or at least they would notice the problem before they start the oil change. Note: I already told them that I already have 4 years extended warranty on the car so if there was anything wrong with the car I would use the warranty to fix it rather than claim that the problem happened after the oil change in their job there is no point at all to waste my time and money. I understand that maybe in your company policy the customer isn’t that important but I am really disappointed and don’t know what to say other than that I was expecting to get more respect and professional service from one of the biggest cars companies in the world like BMW but unfortunately they have just wasted my time and damaged my car without even acknowledging their fault  or saying sorry we will work out a way to fix it for you. Some time it is necessary to take a stand and take the full responsibility of your fault to get the respect of others “it’s not always about the money”. And after one year I heard sound in my car and I took it again to BMW dallas to diagnos my car they told me and give me report the problem from drive shaft and it will cost me 3k $ after that I took my car to another mechanic shop and I paid 800$ after that the problem still existing they don't know any shit about diagnosis of fixing cars

BACK IN 2015... I got a 328i. I worked with the AutoNation sales guy, who wasn't overly knowledgable, and I basically had to deal with his manager instead, who had little to no time to deal with me. After getting the car, I had some issues with it from the get-go. Only after FIVE visits back to the shop over 2 months, and the problems were resolved and my car was THANKFULLY perfect since (no credit to AutoNation at the time). Of the times that I had to bring in my vehicle for a checkup and regular maintenance, the service reps were non-existent and I bounced around from one rep to another until I landed on the worst one of all: a pompous know-it-all ass. It was at that point I swore I would get my car at another location. NOW 2017 Over the past year, I had watched the BMW of Grapevine (Sewell) location get built, as I work in Grapevine and drove by the new dealership location every day. Once the dealership opened, I decided to trade in my model for an upgrade. Let me say, that Sewell did an amazing job with the building and their customer service was impeccable. I almost made a deal there, however,.. I had my eyes set on a specific car, with specific options, at a specific price cap. After looking at the inventory at the Grapevine location TWICE, I had something that was close to what I wanted. After doing my research with websites like consumer reports, etc, I ended up getting a bunch of calls and emails from various other dealerships around DFW. Then, I got a text from a girl over at BMW of Dallas. Her name was Nichole Sullivan, and she was unlike ANY of the previous sales or service staff I have dealt with at BMW of Dallas. I trash-talked her employer right to her face, telling her that I hated BMW of Dallas / AutoNation and that they just can't compete with Sewell and the new location in Grapevine. She was almost speechless. What could she do attempt to apologize for how I was treated in the past? Well Nicole did the impossible and managed to find the an even better car and negotiated with me and practically got me the car for the price I wanted with some extra add-ons! What really mattered to me the most, was that she was a NO-BULLSHIT girl. She told me her back story, about coming from a completely different dealership and series of car brands. She had quickly mentioned in conversation that she was also in the military, which I then witnessed that experience as she simply did everything herself. She bounced around the dealership, getting different paperwork, and car mats, and she even bypassed some middle-people to get a specific screw driver to take my plate protector off of my old car as I traded it in. She didn't get caught up in bureaucracy and red-tape when she needed something and went to the people who could make the deal for what I wanted. Meanwhile, she kept things SUPER professional, down to earth and listened to my needs the entire time. Not only that, she bought me lunch and she even made a fun video with pictures of me and the new car. We've been in touch a number of times since getting my new X5 xDrive a couple weeks ago. And we're planning on going for lunch soon. I also want to recognize that the other staff members that helped me out were markedly improved as well, including Billy Underwood, Oscar Magana and Reesh Ismail. In hindsight, maybe the Grapevine BMW dealership had a part in all of this. Having been built, was the kick in the butt of AutoNation to improve their customer service and sales team. I also heard that the new manager has plans of remodeling the building too in the coming year which is pretty exciting too. Either way, something really good is starting to happen at BMW of Dallas.

The dealership tried to sell me on the Costco Car program which sells the car at just above invoice. I showed them the Edmunds Price Promise coupon which had a lower price than the Costco price sheet and the salesman and sales manager acted like they had never seen one. I had to tell them that they are the only BMW dealers in the DFW area that honors them and that on a review a previous customer had praised them after that customer had used a Price Promise coupon to purchase a car. The negotiation process took very long because they try to shift numbers around to confuse you and give you the idea that they are giving you a good deal. They were not aware of the Anniversary Credit BMW was offering and they were not aware of the College Grad credit, I had to show them where they were at on the BMW webpage. These guys did not have their act together. The best customer for any dealership is the one who just wants to get into the car and does no research about the price of the car or their credit. They always tell you that they are not making much money on the deal, yeah right, which at one point I was told. Any new car buyer needs to read Edmunds buying tips, especially the story of the guy who went undercover for Edmunds. I learned a lot from it and turned the tables on the dealership and walked out paying under invoice for the car and getting what I asked for on my trade-in plus the lowest interest rate offered by the manufacturer. The most important thing to remember is that any dealership does not want a customer to walk out the door without buying (they are selling profit) so you have to be patient and not show them your cards. They are doing the same thing except in reverse. You want to buy a car without paying much for it and they want to sell it for as much as you are willing to pay. It has to be a win/win situation for both. You can always walk away which is something they do not want you to do. As I read some of the good reviews of BMW Dallas I can only think that most of these customers think they got a good deal but I think they paid a little more for the car and they feel they got the best deal they could possibly have gotten.

I would like to share my experience with your guys. I am a customer in Seattle Washington, which is thousands of miles away from BMW of Dallas. About 2 months ago, I was looking for a used BMW M6 online. I found out that they have a pretty good M6 in their inventory. So I asked for a quote, and a salesman (Jay Purdy) reply me within very short of time. After I had been communicate with him, I decided to buy this car in distance because he was passionate and made me have a good experience of purchasing the car. So far, everything was good. After waiting for 3 weeks, the car finally arrivals. Then, I realize the car does not have the second key, which makes me wonder why a car worth 80,000 only has one key. So I called Jay, and he told me that they (dealer) are ordering a new key for me and it will be shipped when they have it. After waiting for 2-3 weeks, the nightmare starts. I called Jays number and no one answers, and no email replies as well. Finally, after I called sales number on their website and talk to someone, and this guy told me that Jay Purdy is no longer with them. So I asked him what about the issue that Jay left over? He said he would contact the sales manager and let me know whats going on. And you know what, that was end of the story. I tried to call the manager for so many times and left so many voice messages. And finally, sales manager Denial told me that he could do nothing with it, and let me talk to another sales manager John Bosco. After million of phone calls, John picked phone once and told me once they receive my documentation, they would go ahead order my key. After I send my documentations to him, I thought someone was going to help me out with it and unbelievably that was BS as well. John Bosco never picks up my phone call again. The entire thing is the worst experience I have ever had in my life. I can not image how would the people like them become the leader of the sales team and how would the salesmen going to be with their supervision. I feel like they are taking advantage of I am being far away and treated me with so much disrespect by ignoring me. A couple of hundred dollars key isnt a big thing compare to the $80,000 car. But it clearly defines who these people are, they would do anything to get your money with no moral and manner. In short, what I am trying to say is if you just want to buy a car from them and 100% sure that you will never interact with these people. Then, go for it, they will treat you as their God. However, if you may need to somehow interact with them after they get your money, RUN AWAY AS FAR AS YOU CAN. They will never care about you and treat like [non-permissible content removed]. PLEASE THINK CLEARLY BEFORE YOU GO THERE. I hope my review would help.
