I'm just wondering why the city is hassling BMW of Dallas so much.

Hopefully they'll move in there quick, b/c Forest Lane construction is ridiculous b/c of the DART Light Rail they're building near there.
Yeah that's the location. My sales guy told me that the city keeps making changes to their design like "you can't have a service entrance leading to Lemmon Ave because of possible traffic back-up" then they change their mind. Also he said that because BMW of Dallas is owned now by Autonation (I bought my e53 when they were John Roberts but he sold in '05) that they do like 75% domestic manufacturer car sales as a company-- so since domestic sales are slow that slows the cash going into the new dealership construction.
