What's your go-to BMW dealer in SoCal?

In my experience, FJ has always been able to get me great deals with Audi and Mercedes, but I don’t have a similar dealer preference for BMW. In your experience, what dealers have been more eager to move cars? Drop brokers or specific sales people you’ve had positive experiences with too.

I’m not a bmw person, but I am in SoCal. I’d probably start with @BMW_Dave in Murietta and @legendsauto (who has quoted me before on something else) before I went much further.

BMW of Murieta is great

The particular employee you work with is likely more important than the dealership itself. There’s a lot of price variation even within the same store. Generally, you’ll get a better deal from an internet manager than a retail salesperson working the showroom floor. I’ve gotten excellent deals from Murrieta, Pacific, Long Beach, South Bay, McKenna, Sterling, Beverly Hills, Valencia – but that often had to do with particular circumstances at the time, rather than the dealer itself.

My recommendation would be to search for inventory using online tools, find a few vehicles in stock you’d be okay with, and contact the internet department of the corresponding dealer(s). Create a target deal using the LH calculator so you know in advance what you’re aiming to pay. It takes a bit more legwork than walking into a showrooom unprepared, but you’ll save time for yourself and the salesperson and you’ll get a better deal.

The “best” dealer accolade never remains static. Whoever is the most desperate to move one or two more units is best. Second best is the one with a demo/loaner with the right miles

Thanks guys! Just to be clear though…it’s BMW of Murrieta. People always misspell it. I just didn’t want @Phillip_Warner to not be able to find the website (although you should certainly contact me directly :wink: )

Happy Memorial Day!
