His Well he didn't pretend to be my family. Mabye he didn't realize I felt it. I owe some business so I can distinguish who has good heart naturally. His heart is born kind and whatever you want he will help you find your bimmer head to toe by his client's side not the dealer's side. I really enjoy to hear the engine sound of my Z4 35is everyday. Also all crew in th e shop are really frendly. Before I got 335i convertible from Santa Monica bmw and I can say their services are horrible totally. Here South Bay bmw is biggest dealership in south california and you will be not disappointed. Just visit here and find Chris! Thanks. More
Customer Service Above and Beyond We leased a 2016 528i late last week. After completing all the documentation and driving it to dinner we discovered the car lacked a specific feature We leased a 2016 528i late last week. After completing all the documentation and driving it to dinner we discovered the car lacked a specific feature we had expected. We assumed we were "stuck with it" but I wrote Chris a note explaining my disappointment. Admittedly I was very direct and not particularly diplomatic in my language. Chris immediately contacted us and expressed his sincere apologies. He also stated his intention of making it right by us. Over two days he located a car that had the requested features, and the dealership stood behind him and helped us get into the car quickly. Aside from some unavoidable lost time, their overall responsiveness to us was excellent. We will be back for another vehicle when this lease is up, and we will ask for Chris. More

Great service for first time BMW owner. So I came here for the first time in December of 2016, two days before New Year's day, because my TPMS light had turned on 4 times since April. I had So I came here for the first time in December of 2016, two days before New Year's day, because my TPMS light had turned on 4 times since April. I had been reinflating my tires to get the TPMS light to turn off, but since this was the 4th time the light had turned on in a relatively short period of time, I decided to take my car to South Bay BMW to find out what was wrong. Without even having to make an appointment, I stopped by after work and Alen, my new Service Advisor, immediately came out to have a look at my tires while one of the parking attendants backed up the car. He immediately found a giant screw that had lodged itself into my rear passenger side tire that I had missed. So I left my car with Alen to have the tire replaced and I got a very clean X3 loaner to use while my car was worked on. When my car was ready on the 2nd, I got a call, a text, and an email from Alen letting me know (nice!) and it's been smooth sailing since. My second time here was in mid February, I came in because I was due for a brake fluid exchange. My car's CBS indicator for brake fluid had been red for a week and I finally made time to come in after work. Again, I met with Alen without an appointment. I left my car with him, but when I went to the loaner desk, it turned out that my license had expired and my new one was sitting on my desk at home (doh!). So I got my car and dropped it off again a couple of days later (with my new license in hand this time) and I requested a sedan and got an extremely clean and very new 330i loaner! My car was ready the next day, but I couldn't make it there before closing, so I took advantage of South Bay BMW's very generous 24 hour grace period on loaners and I picked up my car the next day after work before they closed. Again, Alen and his team did an excellent job! Even though I've only left my car with Alen twice, I feel like we're building a good rapport, he's patiently answered all of my questions, and I feel comfortable recommending him and South Bay BMW to anyone looking to service their BMW. The one thing I wish they'd add to improve the customer experience is contactless payments. Contactless is a shared standard used by Apple Pay, Android Pay, Samsung Pay, Microsoft Wallet, and is even built into the BMW credit card offered by BMW. Check the brochure for the BMW Card at the parts/cashier desk where the BMW Card is clearly pictured with a contactless logo on the front indicating that it has contactless built in. It's disappointing that you can't use the contactless feature built into every BMW Card at South Bay BMW. To the management/accountants/owners of South Bay BMW, I'd like to add that contactless payments DOESN'T ADD A PENNY to card processing costs (not even for Apple Pay), so please, please add contactless payments as a way to improve the customer experience for BMW Card cardholders and Apple Pay, etc. users.

I I couldn't have asked for a better experience in buying my first BMW. South Bay BMW of Torrance is a beautiful facility with outstanding employees. I worked primarily with Al Asghari and Alex the financial manager. Omar also did a wonderful job of introducing me to the technology within vehicle and talking me through step-by-step how to operate different controls. Each individual was very helpful and took the time to meet all of my needs. I highly recommend each of them and the dealership itself. More
