Ok before I bought my 335 in Dec 2006 I went to about 5 or 6 different dealers. Actually sat down and tried to get the best deal for my car. Crevier bmw in Santa Ana would not budge from the sticker when I was there. Matter of fact they called me latter and told me they would give me 1000 of sticker. I wanted 2500 off sticker!!!!!! Yes I know it was still a new car that just came out a few months before, but come on. I know for a fact that there is a lot of "Trunk Money" in BMWs. Anyways BMW in Monrovia did not go below sticker. Mckenna in Norwalk was better, matter of fact I almost signed but I knew I could get lower!!! Ontario was good but not good enough, Pacific BMW in Glendale would not even talk to me. Shelly BMW in Buena Park was ok. Nick Alexander was the dealer that got my business. Its in a bad area in Los Angeles, matter of fact I was really surprised that there was a dealership in such bad area. Anyways they gave me my price I wanted for the car. It had to be picked up from the Docks and not another dealership which is a plus!!! You really don't want to buy a car that another dealership has had and they have to trade to get it. I wanted my car without a front plate, and the lowest miles possible. My car had only 3 miles and no plate.

Good luck and I hope you do your homework before you go!!!!!!!!!!!

Where in OC are you? I've bought 2 BMW's from McKenna so far. I wouldn't say they were the best, but they're competitive and definitely have a lot of stock/selection. If you live close to Shelly, then people will tell you to contact Yiwen...which i would also recommend. He's a real nice guy, and will give you a great deal.

We just bought ours from Century West in No Hollywood from Polo Lopez. He is by far the best! He gave us a great deal on ours, was extremely professional and basically made our car buying experience one of the best ever. I did most of the negotiating over phone and email (blackberry)..I HIGHLY recommend him as an CA!!!

hit me up.... or better yet send him a quick email @
plopez@centurywestbmw.com
tell him Joe and Alicia referred you to him!
