[Dude Abides]

Looking for a dependable, locally owned BMW dealership in San Diego or within an hour’s drive.

Not interested in any Penske or Sunroad dealers.

The dude does abide.

Being in North County, my local dealership and others were tacking on ADM back in Dec 2021. BMW of Murrieta did not, so I purchased my car with them.

BMW Carlsbad is part of AutoNation (got my 440i from their sister dealership in Buena Park), and Escondido/San Diego are part of Penske. Not sure about BMW El Cajon...

Not within an hour, but you might want to check with Jon Shafer at BMW of Santa Maria. Jon is the GOAT of BMW CAs and the founder of Bimmerfest.

Sent you a PM

Why no Penske? His stores have been the only ones I’ve been happy with for the last 20 years or so.

Encinitas and vista are gone now. They merged to 1 location in carlsbad.

OP - carlsbad has been solid for me. Murrieta too, but that’s a bit of a hike.
