Well, I think the time has come for us to start pricing our new E60. We are in the Bay Area. Does anyone have recommendations for a good dealer who will sell us a car at a great price? Dealers and salesman's names would also be appreciated. Thanks.

Torquey5 works or worked at BMW SF and gave great deals to members on this forum. I can't recall if he's still there, but you can PM him and ask. His name is Dan.

I just went thru the process, having contacted a number of Bay Area dealers. Got a great price on Euro delivery for 550i. PM me and I'll give you a run down of my experience. If you're thinking of Weatherford in Berkeley, run away . . . .

Will send you a pm. BTW, dealt with SF BMW and the treatment we received was less than stellar. It appears they think they're doing us a favor by selling us a car. Very arrogant. Went back 2 times to check out a preowned as well and was NEVER even offered a test drive. HMMMMM sure I'll buy a car without test driving it. NOT!
