Need a good CA reccomendation

So I'm about 85% sure I'll be picking up my 135 in the next month or two. I don't see much stock on the lots around here (Madison, Milwaukee and Chicago areas) so I'm thinking I will have to place an order for one. I am looking for some recommendations for an Sales Associate (or CA as most people call them) to work with on this mainly because I got f-ed over on my last one, and looking back at the bill of sale somehow paid more than sticker as 2 numbers don't match up by $457.

I want someone I can trust will work with me, not against me. Someone who will help me with the ordering process, not someone who's gonna tell me they have a car with X when they know I'm looking for something with Y, and most importantly, someone who will do a sale (or lease in this case) for $500-$1000 over invoice and not over charge me again.

Anyone have someone like that around here that they know and could give me some contact info for? I will give your name as a referral which I know sometimes means you get like $50 or something.

Thanks
-Badger

Sounds like you're looking for a CA...?

I can't help you out with that, as mine has left the dealership, and I wouldn't recommend him anyway, as I thought I was getting my car at invoice but only because I didn't know about the AT credit, and he didn't clue me in on it either.

Too bad I can't help you....I had such a horrible experience here that I went all the way to the smallest state in the union, Rhode Island, to get my car.

I'll probably give him the car and jack my moms Commander for the winter and just order my car and wait the 3 months for it to get here.

and no JB3 for me... Hoping LET/Eurocharged will put me in stage II fairly cheap.

I know you were looking for a 135i, but this guy seems to have a good reputation on the general forum:

The one thing I hate about flashes is that there is no resale value on it. Too bad because if somehow you can flash it with a handheld flasher like the revo for the audi's it would make it more worth it. Well, best of luck to you sir on trying to get into a new vehicle. I'm sure you're semi stoked.

thanks Al... I remember hearing about this guy, just wish it was someone around here so I didn't have to deal with the extra shipping costs but I guess if he sells at invoice it kinda evens out right?

I was thinking about a hand held flash unit anyway so it'll at least be worth that much and stay with the vehicle.
