Forum Friendly Dealers

Hey folks,

I looked around and couldn't find a thread that listed BMW dealers that were friendly to members of the forum. I know some dealers extend discounts on parts and service to organized groups. If you know of any of these dealers this would be a great spot to list them by area, if you know what kind of discount they offer even better. E.G. GTA, GVA, etc....

Specifically I'm looking for a good spot in the GTA to grab an OEM E85 strut brace.

Cheers

Grand River BMW - the parts manager is awesome! But they are located in Waterloo.

The guys at GR are excellent and I have boughts bits from them but honestly you can't beat the pricing from ECS,Tischer etc.
Athough our dollar isn't strong right now.

I agree the prices at ticsher look great but considering they don't ship to Canada it's like forbidden fruit. I've used ECS for my VW lots and they are somewhat competitive but I use them more for things I can't get here as opposed to them being a great deal. What kind of deals can you get at Grand River?

Probably 10-15% for repeat customers
I used GR when I first got my Z but used ECS exclusively since I found out about them.
We are really shafted at the dealers in Canada, one example was the windshield cover at he base of the windshield , I paid $215 at GR and the same part was $115 at ECS.

It probably doesn't pay to buy a single part in the states but I have waited until I need multiple items and combined them in one shipment and saved considerably.
