Reading through this thread and just wanted to pop in and say hi and also explain some things.

Seeing the thread started in 2016 the dealership was under different management, as of today we have great management and great deals (At least we think) �� any in stock car and locates as well!. And we try to have a decent ///M inventory at all times in stock new/Pre owned , if anyone needs any pricing or has any questions shoot me over a pm or txt / call me directly I also would be willing to help obtain best pricing along with everyone else in this thread.

"Under different management", eh? Do you mean different management, or different ownership? Could be different ownership I guess, I'd say Bill Vince would have to be about 85 by now. I bought a 450 from Bill right after he added a Honda motorcycle franchise to his used car lot in Plainfield. Not the most pleasant fellow I've dealt with, I have to say.

Both actually sir. Our sales Management team and GM are completely different and excellent to work with and things are ran quite different for the better

Some members had mentioned Circle BMW in this thread and I strongly concur in a positive assessment of that dealership. I have not purchased a car there but my brother bought his last five there, including a 15 M4 and an 18 540, both of which are still serviced there. He travels over an hour to get there. I bought my M4 not far from where I live, but I also travel almost an hour to get to Circle for service. So while I can't comment on the sales department from personal experience I can comment on the service department. The M-specialist SA there is Tim, and he speaks our language.
For those further west seeking M-friendly service I can also recommend from personal experience Thompson BMW in Doylestown. The M-specialist there is Matt Bean.

I actually visited Open Road BMW during my M3 search a few weeks ago and had already received multiple offers and quotes by the time I walked in, so I knew about all the credits, offers and deals (fleet discount, BMWF, loyalty, etc). There was an MGM 6spd I was interested in and the guy I met with at Open Road BMW was very off-putting. Almost like he was annoyed I was there or was not serious about making a purchase. I let him know up front that I had an idea of their bottom line and what I was eligible for programs wise. They had the M3 I wanted in their inventory and wanted to negotiate and give them my business.

I showed him the e-mails and discounts other dealerships were offering me and he pretty much responded that his management would not match the offerings and the other dealerships were giving me fluff to get me in the door and would end up not honoring the discounts. Glad to report the other dealership I did purchase my M3 through DID honor everything they stated and I ended up taking my business elsewhere.

I honestly think that its more about the sales person, then the dealership itself. I have been buying cars from Open Road, for over 4 years and nobody else can match the pricing I get. I sent multiple people to the seller and everyone purchased cars from him, for a very competitive price. On the other hand I called some of the dealerships that other people mentioned and got very high quotes before. I am sure that if I spoke to the same person that others spoke to, I would have gotten a great price as well.

This is why I have direct contact information for anyone interested, directly to the person that has gotten me great prices, multiple times. I have sent more then 10 people to him from the forums over the least few years, that all purchased as well.

I think buying a car for a good price is not an easy task. That's why I try to help out by giving a good contact. Never hurts to ask for the prices he might be able to work out.

I did exactly that. I asked if we could do a break down of what he was actually able to do and give me a fair comparison (this was before I joined this forum, of course). You are right, it was absolutely an individual as he just seemed to not want to take the time with me.
