Southbay BMW in Socal?

12-02-2008, 08:22 PM

www.southbaybmw.com Has anyone been there before? I moved and these guys are the nearest dealership to me now. Any negative comments on them?

Did european delivery through them (Phillippe Kahn) and also had car in to the service department for a minor tech issue (seat sensor replacement) and I was very impressed with how everything was handled. Great dealership in my opinion.

One of the nicest dealerships i've ever been to!

I can see there are improvements that can be made with South Bay.

They had forgotten to screw in the scoop that goes before my intake. In fact, I found the screws days later in the gutter at the root of the wipers. The little things can make a very bad impression if you hadn't done anything great to begin with.

is that a unanimous "they're OK"?

lol i'm used to seeing ppl thrash uppity bmw dealers or something along that line

how uninteresting :]
well it's good to know who I could trust, besides who to avoid, since I also live in san diego woot!

How are their prices? looking to get into a lease 335i

Leased the 328i from there. Pretty friendly dealership as far I know, although I haven't been to any others.
