CA recommendations in Mountain View and BMW of San Francisco

Hi all,

I am looking at some cars which are stocked by the two dealerships and I am wondering if anyone has had any good experiences at these dealerships.

I live in SoCal and would rather get some deals here than go to the Bay area, but the cars are equipped to some desired level at these dealerships. I do not know how dealer trade really works, and if you are supposed to pay for shipping etc.

Any CA recommendations at

BMW Mountain View
BMW San Francisco


Please PM me if you don't feel like sharing names on the forum.

I greatly appreciate any help/input.

Thanks a lot!

Looks like nobody in the Bay area buys BMWs

Perhaps that is the state of the market over there in the Bay area

I recently bought two cars from Eugene Villena at BMW San Francisco. Great guy, nice with a good attitude, and easy to work with, and overall had a good experience working with him on my deals.

I generally am pretty hesitant to recommend car sales people since I've rarely had a good experience, but I'd say give Eugene a try and let me know how it is for you. I shopped around 4 separate BMW dealerships in the bay area and ended up going back to him. You can mention my name (kevin) if that helps.

Good luck, happy shopping!

I got lousy service at BMW Stevens Creek. I finally found one guy (Fred, cant remember his last name) who was cool, but most of the other guys seemed pissed off to help me. I wasn't impressed with the service department either- I had to complain to get a rental, and they scratched my car with their lousy car wash. I called the service manager but never got a call back.
