BMW Toronto Recommendation

Has anyone dealt with an SA over at BMW Toronto and had a good experience? Reason I ask is because i'm looking at trading in my M3 for another (or possibly going to a Porsche but that's another story).

I would have gone to Maranellow, but the SA I dealt with over there is no longer there.

Thanks!

I would prefer going to Endras or Budd's based on what people have said about them on the forum, but BMW Toronto has the car I want, and they're doing the warranty work on my car, so that is why I asked.

Whoa, what's this talk about abandoning the M car? Didn't you just get it??

I too have been reading up a lot on the new 991S.. think that might be my next vehicle as well, although I'd have to spend some time driving one first. Didn't realize they were out in the wild already.. dealers have stock now?

We'll see what happens. I just got an itch when I had I took my car in for service. I saw an M3 there that I liked with competition package and that got the ball rolling. I may very well end up in another M3 or just keep mine if the resale looks ugly.

991S have been in stock for a few months at the dealerships in PDK form. A couple manuals have finally made their way into he country.

Nice! To me trading in an E92 M3 for another E92 M3 doesn't seem all that interesting.. looks the same, drives the same, etc. But going to a 991S would be interesting.. think Mikey has to go take a test drive! Or perhaps the next M3 coming out in a year or two will get my attention.

I really love the M3. Its such a nice car on the track and for touring. If I were to go with another M3 I would get it and keep it for as long as it runs, which is why i'd want a newer model.

Agreed, my E92 is the best car I've ever owned.. most reliable too, hardly had any issues with it at all in 4 years. So it will take something special to replace it, but chances are the next M3 will be just that.. I'm sure the geniuses in Germany are making sure of that!

After going from an early E92 M3 to my 11 M3 I am starting also get bored with the M but that usually goes away after a track day for a little while.Good thing I drive a F150 most of the time during the week so the M always feels fresh for a bit till I get bored once again.I have a big interest in a new 911 and with the GT3 only a year away it is part of my thought process.I do not see myself in the next M3-4 with a turbo as my wifes 335is has created a dislike of turbo's for track & spirited driving.Nice for normal driving but No soul like a high revving na engine like our M's or a GT3.
