Orlando SA's

Does anyone have a sales person at Fields Orlando that they'd recommend? I know exactly what I want on my car and am ready to place an order for MSRP or thereabouts. Don't even need to test drive it, as I've driven several 335's and 535's. In other words, should be an easy sale for somebody -- but I don't want to be hassled by someone trying to sell me a car on the lot with features that I don't want, or without features that I do.

Anyone have any recommendations?

If you are approached by a guy named Hugh, just walk away. He's a major dick...

My SA was Dennis..I can't remember his last name. Great guy though, no pressure sales guy. Also, he's got a racing background which is cool too

Also, that Hugh guy told me they weren't taking deposits for the 1 series when I first was interested. This was before the car had even come out. Since I didn't look like the type to buy, he just shrugged me off. My parents went in the next night looking for a car for my mom. When they asked about the pre-order list there were already TWO people with deposits down.

So yah, I'd say avoid him lol

I went through Tim O'Donnel. He seems like he is constantly in a hurry. But then again, I had consistently good info on delivery date, and was first to be notified of arrival, and first to pick up. Respectful guy. I would recommend.

Was just at Fields to check out a 1nner...they had several on the lot. Dennis was the guy who came out to talk with me. Nice guy...seemed to be an enthusiast...made nice comments about my s2k.

BTW...the 1nner looks soooo much smaller in person. Interior room was great though. Didn't even have a problem getting my 6' frame into the backseat. Pics do not do it justice...but it is...cute. All I need is another "cute" car.

haha that's cool! Dennis is a good guy, now if only he'd get me my production number jk I'm sure he's not the one holding it up.

On a random note: Last time I was at the dealership Hugh was right at the door watching me and my girlfriend walk in. He didn't even bother to open the door for my GF (who was in front of me). I found it to be pretty rude lol

Hugh seems to have a habit of telling females different things than he tells males. He has that "only men know about cars" attitude which really pissed off my wife who knows more about cars than most men I come across...
