Have a few announcements and updates to share regarding the BMW PNPC shopping tool, the first of which being the new 3.0 version!
Have changed things up a bit and switched to a horizontal layout, which affords for additional vendors in the future and some extra room for sorting options. Should be a little more organized and informative, as there's more room for notes on how things work and most buttons/settings have additional explanations when you hover over them. Using the tool should be a little more self-explanatory now for those who may not have seen/read through the first post.
Don’t know if anyone else will find it useful, but have added the option to sort vendors by including/excluding online dealerships. Default settings are set to exclude dealerships, but new defaults can easily be saved in the “Settings” tab. If you have any saved settings already, those will carry over to the 3.0 version and will not be overwritten. Have also added BMW of Bridgewater to the list.
I’ve received a lot of great input and suggestions on the tool, and don’t know if I’ll have the time or skill to accomplish everything, but please keep the feedback coming. Always nice to hear it’s being put to good use. Speaking of feedback and suggestions, the most popular request by far is to create a Mac version. I’ve been trying not to get too many hopes up, but because so many people have requested it, here and across a number of other forums, that's now something I’m turning my attention towards.
Here’s a screenshot of it as a standalone app on Mavericks 10.9.5. Still working out a lot of the details, and some of the extra features may take time to tweak, but it's getting there:
Have been busy with finishing up this update to the BMW tool, made a few recent changes to the Audi one, and currently working on another for Mini Cooper. Don't know when I'll have the Mac versions available, but will be working on the BMW PNPC one first and as often as I can.
As always, the most up-to-date version is available for download at

Thanks guys!
