My husband and I recently purchased a new vehicle from BMW of Austin and overall it was a very good experience. We were back and forth between Audi and BMW and while we loved both vehicles and the pricing BMW of Austin and overall it was a very good experience. We were back and forth between Audi and BMW and while we loved both vehicles and the pricing was similar, what sold us was the positive experience we had in dealing with BMW and our sales associate, Troy Massey. He really took the time to show us the vehicle, took us on an impressive test drive and was very open during the negotiation process. Our experience at Roger Beasley Audi was quite the opposite - arrogant and condescending sales associates who didn't dedicate their time. We came very close to purchasing the Audi, but in the end walked away and made a deal with Troy and we couldn't be happier. If your looking for a new or used BMW, I highly recommend setting up an appointment with Troy at BMW of Austin. More

I have bought two new BMW's from Jay Lafolette @ BMW of Austin over the years. (A 2007 328i and a 2011 335i.) I still own them both. Working with Jay was a PLEASURE. He was very informitive regardin Austin over the years. (A 2007 328i and a 2011 335i.) I still own them both. Working with Jay was a PLEASURE. He was very informitive regarding the models I was interested in purchasing and he gave me a very competitive price. I shopped around in Houston, Dallas and San Antonio for BMWs and decided to purchase my cars from Jay. The service support at BMW Austin is next to none. You would not believe the waiting room, you talk about over the top! I have been to many dealerships over the years for service/support and none of them can match BMW of Austin Service. I recommend BMW of Austin to everyone I know and tell them to ask for Jay if interested in purchasing/leasing a BMW. More
I recently purchased a 2011 BMW 335i from Larry Stenson at BMW of Austin. Larry was knowledgeable, professional, courteous, and easy to work with. The transaction was as smooth as any I've had at a car d at BMW of Austin. Larry was knowledgeable, professional, courteous, and easy to work with. The transaction was as smooth as any I've had at a car dealership - and I've been buying cars and trucks for over 40 years now. I feel that I got a very good deal on the price of the car. I live in San Antonio and it was worth the time and effort to drive the 90 miles to Austin to make this purchase. Many thanks to Larry and the rest of the staff at BMW of Austin. P.S., the 335 is a great driving car! More

Our purchase of a new BMW 328i from Larry Stenson at BMW of Austin was the most straight-forward, pleasant car buying experiences that we have ever had. I put in an on-line "dealer quote" request from ht of Austin was the most straight-forward, pleasant car buying experiences that we have ever had. I put in an on-line "dealer quote" request from http://Edmonds.com, and within 30 minutes or so, Larry had emailed me a response and welcomed us to come by for a test drive - and he said that they had a few models in stock that matched our selection of colors and options. We initially test drove the 335i with the Sport Package, and we took it down the twisty, curvey Old Spicewood Springs Road to see how it handled and then up Loop 360 and back on Hwy 183 to see how it drove on the highway. It was VERY nice. We thanked Larry, and told him that we still needed to look at the other 3 cars on our shopping list - Acura TL, Lexus ES 350, and Infiniti G37 Journey. The Acura seems large and cumbersome in comparison to the BMW, the Lexus was very dissapointing - the car floated above the road, with very little "connectedness". The Infiniti G37 Journey was very close, and we really liked the red color, but that only came with a black interior (we like in Austin, TX and it gets HOT in the summer). We were willing to "put up with" the black interior and sat down to start talking finances. The Infiniti dealer would offer us $10, 500 for the trade-in on our 2003 Infiniti G35 Coupe, which was $1500 to $2000 less than Edmonds claimed it was worth. We almost bought it, but decided to sleep on it. That evening I sent Larry and email saying that we would like to test drive the less powerful 328i without the Sport Package, and mentioned that my wife was really leaning towards the red color (the Inifiniti looked great, and the BMW brochure that Larry gave us showed that the 3 series was available in red exterior, with TAN interior). Within minutes Larry emailed me back and said he has one in stock that matched that criteria and he would have it ready for us to test drive at 10 AM the next morning. When we arrived at BMW of Austin the next morning, a light rain was falling, but Larry had the car ready for us to test drive. He insisted that we go our on the same test drive route, and to go by ourselves (he didn't need to go). OK, it's raining, and he just tells us to take off and enjoy our ride! We loved the car, and it had more than enough power for my wife, so we sat down to talk business with Larry. First he got our Infiniti G35 Coupe appraised for trade-in. They offered $12,000. (Remember what the Infiniti dealer offered us for our Infiniti?) We said OK and worked up all the paperwork. When we came back in 3 1/2 hours, the car had all the dealer prep, it was cleaned beyind perfection, and was sitting inside their showroom (it was still raining outside). While in the showroom, Larry explained a little of the features and gave us a nice introduction to the car. They then pulled the car outside, where the satellite radio was activated and another person (Chris?) spent 20 or 30 minutes giving us a more thorough explanation of how all of the controls operated, and even set-up my BlackBerry for Bluetooth voice recognition! Larry sent us an email 2 weeks later to say that our license plates were ready. My wife drove over and told that to someone in the Serice Department, and she said they were very polite and put them on without any delay. In summary, the car purchasing experience at BMW of Austin was very straight-forward and pleasant. I would highly recommend them to anyone interested in this class of a vehicle! More

I had driven only 4,000 miles; so when I accidenly left headlights on for 12 hours, got it charged; thoght nothing else about it. Until next morning. I called and roadside there in less than an hour. Drove to dealer, no problem. I'ts possible that by the agreement I signed I was responsible for battery but I had purchsed with only 22,200 miles. I said, "I think this is very unfair and a bad harbinger for future dealing.; They went to bat for me and I left a couple of hours latter with a full servicing, new battery, car wash, and BMW cap. I paid only $22 for cap. Very happy with this dealer. More
I recently bought a 2011 BMW 328i from John Dickerson at BMW of Austin and have nothing but great things to say about him and everyone I met at the dealership. I first met with John Dickerson at about noon BMW of Austin and have nothing but great things to say about him and everyone I met at the dealership. I first met with John Dickerson at about noon and I was on my way with a handshake on a car by 3:00 that afternoon. John Dickerson knew I was also looking at other competitor's cars, so he worked the best deal to win my business. He also worked really hard to get me better trade dollars on my Acura. John knew we handle schedule conflicts, so he arranged for finance to meet me at 7:00 that night. He worked until the deal was done and we drove off - almost 9:00 that night. He answered all my questions about the car, and when it started to rain, John pulled my car from outside into the showroom while we finished up so I wouldn't have to drive away with other than a clean shiny car. We sat for almost two hours explaining the features of the car and doing the necessary preference adjustments. Yet, he was enthusiastic about doing so although it was late after closing hours. John Dickerson personally came to my house to assist me with my garage door link. I have already recommended BMW of Austin to my friends and will continue to do so. More
