I recently purchased a limited availability BMW (1M Coupe ~ 800 total for the US) through BMW of Riverside. I called many dealers in March 2011 when this car was released for sale and many treated me very p ~ 800 total for the US) through BMW of Riverside. I called many dealers in March 2011 when this car was released for sale and many treated me very poorly, only wanting to take my deposit money and would not commit to a price until a later date. Some even would not let anyone put a deposit down, and instead said the cars would go to the highest bidder once they arrived. When I called Joe Garcia, he was very up front with me about the allocation process, his availabilty for my needs, and we settled on a configuration and a fair price on the first call. Over the next few months, everything Joe and I agreed upon came true and he even hooked me up with European Delivery (which I understand many dealers would not entertain on this car...due to the extra work). It is now October and I just came back from Europe where I picked up my new 1M Coupe -- configured exactly how I wanted it, delivered when I wanted it, and at a price that was one of the fairest I have heard of for this limited car. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this dealership, and in particular Joe Garcia, for anyone who is looking for a new BMW. More
I bought my first BMW which turned out to be a total nightmare running one problem into another and costly repairs 4 months later. The dealership offered to buy this vehicle back and to get me another o nightmare running one problem into another and costly repairs 4 months later. The dealership offered to buy this vehicle back and to get me another one and so we did. So far so good. I think i got a great car and i am 100% happy. I am very pleased with the way they handled my complaint and the attention they showed to detail. When other dealerships treat their clients bad and without respect, BMW of Riverside is by far the friendliest and highest in customer satisfaction that is hard to find. They will do everything they can to make sure you are 100% happy before you leave their door. Their employees are very friendly, positive, professional and always acknowledge your presence. From the general management to sales/service managers or sales/finance personel, they all do a great job. Special thanks to Chuck, Tye and Mr Naso for taking care of my situation. I am very satisfied and i will continue being a loyal customer of BMW of Riverside. I wouldnt hesitate to recommend them to co-workers, friends and family members More
Took my vehicle to BMW Riverside for service. Was informed that my vehicle needed a fuel filter replacement and fuel injection cleaning! Paid for two diagnosis to figure this out! Before paying the $ informed that my vehicle needed a fuel filter replacement and fuel injection cleaning! Paid for two diagnosis to figure this out! Before paying the $760 for the work, I asked "How sure are you this will fix the problem? I dont want to pay almost $800 and not have a working vehicle." I was told by Tim Burgess, "I am 100% sure this will fix the problem." Paid the money took vehicle home and that same day had the same exact problem! Had to get it towed back to BMW RIVERSIDE, and next day was told the vehicle had bad gasoline! They flushed the tank, and returned it to me a day later! A few hours after picking it up went to fill up my tank and noticed gasoline pouring "not dripping" out from under the vehicle! Drove it back and was told there was a seal not placed properly on the fuel pump that they checked in the second diagnosis! Was called back next day told that all the problems are fixed and my vehicle was again ready. Picked it up and what do you know! Check engine light comes on just a few hours after they had it! This time they keep the car for 4 days! And call me telling me to pay them $2600 to fix the problem! This main problem was not recognized in the original two diagnosis! BMW of Riverside has put me through absolute xxxx! Ive missed work, school, money, and time! I can honestly say they have no idea what they are doing, and they are crazy to think I would hand them over $2600 and fill confident that they would fix the issue! Like Tim and Mike said, they are 100% sure they fixed the problem. Now what! More

We had previously visit another dealer and we were ready to sign the contract. We seen a newer car within our price range at BMW of Riverside. From the time I called and spoke to Pablo we felt the excellent to sign the contract. We seen a newer car within our price range at BMW of Riverside. From the time I called and spoke to Pablo we felt the excellent service. Pablo went beyond his scope of work to help us get our vehicle. His knowledge and superb customer service was the reason we purchase our vehicle. Even after the contract was signed he still took time to explain a few things on the vehicle that would be important to us. CC in Finance was also excellent in helping us deal with our credit union. We would are very great full and would refer the BMW of Riverside to all our friends and family. More

Did not purchase my 328i at this particular dealership but used the dealership for my car servicing need. One would think as a BMW owner that the best and most consistent service would be offered at most but used the dealership for my car servicing need. One would think as a BMW owner that the best and most consistent service would be offered at most of the dealerships. NOT SO, The customer service experience is poor. The service representatives at this particular dealership are a horrible representation of what BMW promises to give their customers. I find the service representatives to be stuck up and rude. They talk down to their clients and do not treat you with hospitality. One representative that I frequently dealt with was Reed Chapman. He has a prideful, haughty and unreassuring attitude. He's a know it all for the most part and does not treat the customer with kindness. I would go else where and avoid this particular representative. More
