Their facility does not look as modern and shiny as Classic (not even the old Classic when they were in Richardson on 75) but they do good job I cannot complain about.

BMW of Dallas is actually building a brand new, state-of-the-art facility by Love Field on Lemmon Avenue. It's supposed to open this Fall but the city has slowed it with all the permits, etc. It has been going through construction for about a year now.

You're talking about the building across the street from Park Place Mercedes right? I work pretty close to Love Field and I swear that building has said "Future Home of BMW of Dallas" for around 2 years. It sucks that it's taken so long b/c that stretch of Lemmon Ave. has a Lexus, Mercedes, Volvo, Porsche, Volkswagen, Audi, Aston Martin, Honda, and Rolls-Royce/Maserati dealerships. 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.
