FL Dealership suggestion

sin911 · 06-11-2012, 01:10 AM

Hello,

I'm new to the forum, located in Miami, FL. I am planning to order a '13 M3. I was wondering which BMW dealers you would suggest and any contact person?

I'd appreciate any and all help. Thanks in advance!

Sin

^ this Sin talk to Ryan. You will not be disappointed.

What color combo are you thinking ?

sin911 · 06-11-2012, 10:46 AM

Hi, thanks for the advice. I will definitely give him a call, let's see what he says.

The car I'm thinking is basically:

Space Gray
Black or Red interior (haven't decided yet)
Competition Pack
Premium Pack
Manual (though I'm kind of torn in between Manual and DCT for everyday use comfort)

DCT is an amazing transmission, but I have to have a clutch and gears to row. I wouldn't buy from a local dealership. Waste of an enormous amount of time and they won't come within 1k the price of what Ryan is offering. No negotiating, no BS. He and his staff are all awesome, and for the first time in your life, you will enjoy the process of buying a car.

My car is currently in the shop right now but when i get her back your more than welcome to try out the manual tranny and see what you think. The DCT is no doubt a great transmission, but like Untouchable said its different. Let me know I'm in the miami area.

Great color choice btw. I love the red interior

^ Thank you for the offer! I may take you up on that, and offer to buy you coffee or a beer in return

I have driven a manual M3 convertible couple years ago, and though the memory is really faint I've been driving manual for couple of years and enjoy rowing through the gears.

The M3 coupe I test drove last weekend was DCT, and I must admit it was fun. Although it was not as involving as a manual car.

I have been a manual transmission guy for pretty much my whole life (though I'm still young). I had a 350Z, then a 997 Carrera S and now have a GT3; all have been manual. I love it! I must agree with Untouchable on this subject

The 350Z was def more fun to drive on the street due to the FR platform and the easiness to drift every corner.

I have been tracking both Porsches and am investing in a new business. I will not unfortunately have the same amount of free time to do so.

Aside from the GT3, I have a company car (VW Jetta) as a daily driver. The M3 will replace both as daily and weekend fun car.

100 percent agree. Our dealerships are horrible. My experience has been terrible. Next car will be ordered through Ryan

Rob@StrasseWheels · 06-11-2012, 07:04 PM

Be sure to get Space Gray, it's the fastest color!

As far as test driving, you can test my SG/Black 6MT M3 out anytime you'd like if it makes the decision making easier. As far as who to buy it from, Ryan Amico is the guy to go to!

Good luck on your search and hope to see you around town when you get it!

Pretty much exactly how I ordered my car...I went with the black interior.

and it was a big mistake! he should have gone fox red! (sorry rob.. not sorry casp!)

I purchased my car w/ ED delivery from adrian avila in atlanta. it was the second car from him and both were good experiences (just started the process for car #3). haven't seen anything but good experiences from ryan also.
