Too bad I am moving out of Bryan at the end of December, I was wanting that ride. :-)

ooh. Sorry to hear that. I have promised the salesman, and the service manager a ride. I also promised to let them take a short drive.
Where are you moving..
I live in Austin... if you are ever around email me.

I would like to find a job in Austin. It will either be Austin or Dallas I am guessing. If you have any job leads a new grad MBA with an IT concentration I would appreciate any leads. :-)


This car will be driven maybe 5K miles per year max. I am definitely keeping it. No speculation here.
By the way I am lucky to be getting it at msrp.
The dealer figures to sell me more Bimmers versus trying to skin me once :).

I haven't ever heard of Fred Brown charging over MSRP for a car, but they do like to get damn near it for a long time.

This is my third BMW from Fred Brown in Bryan. I must say from personal experience they are the best BMW dealer I have dealt with. They have consistently provided excellent customer service before, during and especially after the sale.
I live in Austin four miles from my local dealer. I do all business in Bryan some 100+ miles away. Take what you may from this.
They always have given me the best deal on any purchases compared to all other dealers in the state.Their service department is informative, patient and provide excellent service.
I drive my Bimmers hard and they have no qualms about it. I never have to have work done more than once on the same problem.
I could go on forever....
They are a wonderful representation of what all BMW Centers should emulate.

The Austin Dealer on the other hand is snobbish, does lousy work and overcharges on all their models.
I know most owners of BMW's are doing well financially, but we all know that a deal is a deal and it's really what income you get to keep that matters, not gross.
I always expect to get a great deal on all my purchases, not just cars... this is the path to early retirement.
Well enough said... I am off my soap box.

Happy Thanksgiving all.. and Fred Brown... Keep up the good work of treating ALL your customers as royalty.
Guys if you need a Bimmer and you are near central Texas Call Larry Smith at Fred Brown, you can do no better.
They have a customer for life.
