: See the archives on other articles about this. Allison is okay, but you'll pay more. The people I talked to there seemed to be fairly clueless about cars in general. Could just as well be selling life insurance or swimming pools.

: Stevens Ck BMW has a number of arrogant people in Sales, not good. Heard negative experiences from a few people about that place.

: East Bay BMW in Pleasanton has been treating me nicely so far, and I've heard a number of very good experiences with them. You'll get MSRP. Deposits are $1000. See their web site for info on how to get there. It's not that far from Silicon Valley really. Make a deposit now for a March delivery, or somewhat thereafter. Talk to Kerri Applebaum there, she's definitely worth seeing. ;-)

: I think there also is a BMW dealer at the Freemont Auto Mall. No idea, but could be worth a call.

The one at the Fremont AutoMall is Claridge's BMW. So far they aren't taking deposits on 2001 M3s and say they'll sell them at market value.

Niello BMW up in Sacramento has a waiting list 30 deep and expect to get only a dozen M3s in the next year.

I'm on Allison's waiting list and they won't guarantee MSRP, though they say the markup might be small and they might not run it up for previous customers - have to wait and see.
