What part of Atlanta?
Global is the biggest. I got mine at United BMW Gwinnett. There is a dealer on the south side, one in Decatur and one in Roswell. If Gwinnett is convenient I can hook them up with the salesman I worked with.

BMW of Gwinnett has been pretty helpfull for me. The service rep (Al Powlis)is cool and the parts department has always got what I needed in a timely manner. I have also heard good things about Global BMW but I have not had to go to them about anything yet.

I dont have experience purchasing a BMW from either dealer, but I can give experience on service at United BMW Gwinnett. The service department has treated me well everytime Ive been. No complaints for what its worth.

I didnt get my E60 from them but if you are looking for a good dealer...POC at BMW Global Imports Willie Morris helped my cousin get his 3 and he helped me even though I didnt get mine from him. 770 951 2697. Tell him Pierre sent you.... Good luck!!

I agree that BMW south is pretty bad. It was a good place when Hank Aaron owned it. I was friends with one of the service writers and always got treated well. I have dealt with Gwinnett on several occasions and have bought two cars there. Al has been my service guy since I got the 530 and he's been OK. Hard to get on the phone but he does return calls.
I shopped at BMW south when I bought my last car and the guy was pretty shady. Tried to sell me a car with a lower price than the one I bought but he quoted higher payments.

I recommend Global. I bought two Bimmers and a Mini Cooper from them and have had excellent relationship with Sales and Service folks.

Go to Global and United BMW (north side of ATL) I had a bad experience with BMW South Atlanta :thumbsdown:

Let Clay Nalley (Willie Guzmans buddy), or these two outstanding SA's know I sent you from e60 forum we belong to and I said to give you their best salesmen and price on a 3 series!!
I had a bad experience also with BMW of South Atlanta too, but once reported to my
SA Pasqal Simmons he took my complaint to management and had it all corrected. Al Powlus of United BMW of Gwinnett is a personal friend and helped me when he worked at Nalley BMW and Hank Aarron BMW aka BMW OF South Alanta, and Al Powlis is a SA is one cool SA and rides Harleys, but I known Al since 2004 when I paid cash for ny2004 530i then, and it shocked Clay Nalley when I had my personal bank check made out for $52.000.00 to him, for my new 2004 e60 530i and Al takes care of all his BMW Clients. Be sure to tell Al or Pasqul Simmons their Friend Eddie Presley said helllo, and get you the best salesmen at the BMW dealers
