Autohaus in St. Louis has been the only place I'll let touch my cars for the past 6-7 years. Everyone there is really professional and friendly. They do nothing but make you feel appreciated and welcome. I took a few pics yesterday.

Nice big TV:



Closed-circuit monitor so you can watch your car in the service bay, etc., and gift shop:



Some cool new paintings above the SA offices:



The snack bar, coffee maker, etc.



Thanks guys!

Did you say shopping? While you wait? Let me get out my map....
But seriously, it's nice to see somebody has something positive to say about a dealership. I'm sure at least some of the SA's out there deserve to hear that.

Glad to hear you like your dealership Calvin. I've been happy with the service departments in both dealerships where I have bought my BMWs -- Circle BMW in Eatontown, NJ and Park Avenue BMW in Maywood, NJ. When I have gotten a sniff of shadiness at other BMW dealerships during my car shopping, I've avoided them.

Glad to read about your positive experience with your dealer. We need to hear nice feedback in addition to the complaint. I love a story with a happy ending.
