Did european delivery through them (Phillippe Kahn) and also had car in to the service department for a minor tech issue (seat sensor replacement) and I was very impressed with how everything was handled. Great dealership in my opinion.

I can see there are improvements that can be made with South Bay.

They had forgotten to screw in the scoop that goes before my intake. In fact, I found the screws days later in the gutter at the root of the wipers. The little things can make a very bad impression if you hadn't done anything great to begin with.

Leased the 328i from there. Pretty friendly dealership as far I know, although I haven't been to any others.
