They can get you a 128 coupe much more quickly, but all of their allocations for the 135 are taken for months in advance. Not sure if this has to do with sales or just the limited production status. It seems that the 135's are pretty popular in most parts of the country right now which is why it is hard to get a good deal on one. I like their service department in SA as I have dealt with them the past 12 years, but they are hard to deal with in the sales area (I do like several of the CA's there, Robert and Andy).

Since I plan on buying the 135 next year (just paid my last car note off), finding this site is a wonderful source to prepare. If S.A. CAs are hard to deal with in the sales area, I will go elsewhere. Austin isn't that far. If S.A. is that bad, my principles would require me to go to the Austin dealership for every possilbe routine maintenance issue that BMW would pay for. No sense in giving a bad dealership any more money than it already gets.
