so, who was in the AW E92 and TiAg E92 out on I-20 westbound in Arlington today?

ptwob311 · 08-09-2009, 09:52 PM

Hey guys/gals..
Just thought i would say hi. I am originally from Houston, but have lived in Colorado for the past six years... recently moved to Wichita Falls; I'll be here for at least 1 1/2 years.

I guess the first good question would be what is the "best" dealership to call home for warranty issues and such (i am assuming Dallas/Ft Worth area huh?)... and who are the local 335 gurus? Any good/reputable tuners around? I am thinking of getting a AA FMIC and OCC installed pretty soon.

Thanks

Paul

Welcome welcome. I have a friend up in WF...she doesn't like it so much lol. The "best" dealership overall would probably be Classic BMW in Plano for services. Albino and Blake can give you the names of the people they deal with up there. As for tune shops possibly check out Autoscope

Thanks for the advice. I'll look into it. Are Albino and Blake SNs on this forum?

Howdy doody! Welcome welcome.

Can't really help you out in the tuning department as I'm still figuring out the she-beast. As for dealership... got the car from BMW of Dallas. CA is a patron of the family restaurant... so have been relatively decent to deal with. (PM me if you'd like a name.) (Had my valve stem caps stolen last month; he replaced the whole set via overnight). Haven't had to bring my car in for service yet so can't advise on that.

Would highly recommend Blake for more info. Mr. Know-It-All has been quite helpful with my questions.

COOL! thanks for the heads up. I have seen a few E92s here in Wichita Falls and wondering if any of them is on this forum. I am guessing the Dallas/Ft Worth area is home to most on this thread huh? Any regular meeting areas or local hangouts you know of?
