which dealership for service? los angeles area

m3z · 03-04-2015, 12:53 PM

I would take my car to where I leased the car from (Steve Thomas bmw, I would highly recommend them) as their service has been A+++++ from before the deal to weeks after I drove off the lot but the drive is pretty far for service so I was hoping to be pointed in the right direction locally. (one member informed me of center bmw which I probably will try if I cant find something closer) im in the downtown area and I was hoping someone could tell me where to go or where to avoid (i.e. I heard Beverly hills bmw sucks ass even tho they are like 4 blocks from my girlfriends house) I don't mind making a small trip to know that my car will be looked after and cared for as I would my own car (if I knew how to work on my own car lol) thanks!

They are my next place to go to but I never had an issue with Long Beach BMW service. Pretty good so far.

Thank you sir. Another vote for center

Shane @ Center is a good rec, or I personally prefer William @ Century West.

I live in Venice and Will used to be @ Santa Monica. He moved to Century West a few years ago and staying with him meant I had to drive past three other BMW dealerships just to get to him. In my opinion, it's worth it.

thank you sir. it seems century west and new century are my closest options. are they owned by the same ppl? also do you recommend century west as a whole? or just William?

Charlie at McKenna is the man

trojanhly88 · 03-15-2015, 11:45 PM

Pacific BMW is the best. Talk to service adviser Peter Mkhtchian. Their number is 818-5524739. If you want to buy a BMW, Rafy is the best sales person.
