Service in Greater Toronto area? (poll)

There are several BMW dealerships within an hour's drive of my place...

Newmarket (Serpa), Markham (Town + Country), Vaughan (Maranello), Toronto (Toronto), North Toronto (Autohaus), Oakville (Budds') and Barrie (Georgian).

The Newmarket dealership is only 15 minutes from my place but I've had terrible service from the dealership in the past. I know several people who also had bad experiences with 'em too.

So my dilemma now is, do I take my car in for its first scheduled service at the convenient place I don't trust or should I take the car to a dealership a little further from home that I have no experience with?

Feel free to comment and also indicate the best GTA dealership for service.

Downtown Toronto is quick and easy. It's the most convenient for me. However they suck when it comes to troubleshooting and diagnosis

I've had fantastic service from BMW of Mississauga. I've been going there for roughly 3+ years w/o incident. Always pleasant, always wanting to resolve any issues as quickly and painlessly as possible.

Thanks guys... so Town + Country is out.

I forgot about BMW Mississauga... glad to hear they are good.

I've had several people tell me Downtown Toronto is excellent but that may be the least convenient location to get to.

So that makes a total of nine (9) dealers in fairly close proximity.

I booked the first service at Maranello.

They advised the first service is only an oil change.

They did not know if the Nav map upgrade to 2013 1a from 2012 would be done under regular maintenance. My car is a MY2013 after all.
