My Gainesville, Florida Dealer has a NEW Showroom!

Post by JackB1 » Wed Jul 16, 2008 5:51 am

Hello All!

My Dealer of five years, All Pro Imports, BMW & VW, has just moved into a brand new facility here in Gainesville, Florida, USA!

I have bought or leased 7 BMWs from them, new and used, and have been treated great every time. Each transaction had to meet my expectations to have it end up as my new exciting RIDE. Maintenance and service is always delivered with concern to my issues and my BMW and I were cared for like a guest!

The pictures show new buildings but the real story is about the People! They have become my friends!

My special thanks to Steve Burris who has helped me negotiate each purchase and lease. But more important, he has become my friend and fellow “Car Guy”!

To all who read this, I wish you all a BMW Dealer who works this hard to be their Best to their Customers!

Best!
Jack

The sad part is - :( - I'm moving to Little Rock, Arkansas at the end of the month!

I will really miss my friends at All Pro!

See y'all at Homecoming!

Best!
