Best buying experience Brian helped my fiancé and I find the car of my dreams within one visit to BMW of Salem. We walked in, test drove an X3, and ended up leasing a X3 M40 Brian helped my fiancé and I find the car of my dreams within one visit to BMW of Salem. We walked in, test drove an X3, and ended up leasing a X3 M40i on the spot. Brian is knowledgable, reliable, and communicative. He kept us updated every step of the way while my car was in production and transport to Salem, and was always quick to respond to any questions we had along the way. More

KENNY KLINK IS A GEM I Had a fantastic visit. yesterday as I've been struggling with the balance issue on some aftermarket wheels and hub centering rings for my E32 (a '93 I Had a fantastic visit. yesterday as I've been struggling with the balance issue on some aftermarket wheels and hub centering rings for my E32 (a '93 740i). I had been to two separate tire shops over the past year to remedy my problem, and should have just come to BMW of Salem right off the bat. Very reasonable price at 79.00 for a wheel balance that is thorough and that's with a nice wash of the car! Mackenzie Thompson is great to deal with at the service desk. She knows her stuff, is attentive and very smart and always understands what to ask and what I'm asking. Kenny Klink is an absolute master at tracking things down, giving communication and then solving the problem. I'd trust him with any BMW I have, for any problem! I always also enjoy speaking with guys like Brian and Jim in sales, as they're always friendly and informative. Looking over the newer BMWs can be a lot of fun while waiting for some service. Thanks Gang, B More

Amazing Experience! Best We've Ever Had! We called Sean and explained our situation to him. Much like other dealerships, he said that he could work something out. The huge difference between We called Sean and explained our situation to him. Much like other dealerships, he said that he could work something out. The huge difference between Sean and the other dealerships is that Sean went above and beyond and actually got a deal done for us. It was a deal that was more than satisfactory. We appreciated Sean, Brian, and the team so much that we bought them pizza before we left. We definitely will buy from BMW of Salem again. Sean and team make it easy to be loyal. More

From Start to Finish, Great Buying Experience! Although I was still very happy with my 2012 BMW X3 28i, I had started researching the new 2018 BMW X3 30i upgrades and safety features. Towards the Although I was still very happy with my 2012 BMW X3 28i, I had started researching the new 2018 BMW X3 30i upgrades and safety features. Towards the end of the model year (late MAY), I contacted Brian Kimmerle via email to see if he could meet my build price and it was agreed upon. We met to finalize the build and paperwork, Brian explained the process, and the countdown began. Although there were some hiccups on the part of BMW, of which Brian kept me informed, I met my new X3 on 25 AUG. I also worked with Daniel Barreto for financing and service/warranty items, as well as those who determine trade-in offer. From start to finish, I had a great buying experience and would highly recommend BMW of Salem. More

Not only was the v I saw the vehicle I bought on Kelly Blue Book-I was actually going to buy from another dealer, but decided to check out this one. Not only was the vehicle exactly what I wanted, the service I received was incredible. I got there less than an hour before they closed, but Brian didn't rush me at all. He made me feel completely at home. In less than 2 hours from my initial visit I drove off with my new vehicle. I've never, ever had such a pleasant car buying experience. I purchased a great used car from BMW of Salem and if I'm ever in the market for another vehicle, they'll be the first place I go! More

BMW of Salem is worth the visit for PDX area customers I recently purchased a new BMW from Brian K at BMW of Salem and was very happy with the transaction. I live in the Portland area and Brian was more r I recently purchased a new BMW from Brian K at BMW of Salem and was very happy with the transaction. I live in the Portland area and Brian was more responsive to my questions and more competitive on price than the PDX area BMW dealers. I ultimately special ordered my new BMW and Brian provided constant updates on the production and shipping status. His estimate of when the new car arrived was very accurate. Brian is a real BMW enthusiast and was very knowledgable of the brand. He had lots of good advice on features and what options made sense for my special order. I would gladly purchase any future BMW from BMW of Salem and would recommend them to anyone considering a new BMW. More
