Buying a car is a scary proposition. Next to buying a home, it’s probably one of the single largest purchases you make in your life. Combine that with the usual tales of car salesman, and you have a classic recipe for indigestion.

It was with this fear that I came across the best cure: Dave Parker, Fleet Manager at Stevens Creek BMW in Santa Clara, California. To say that Dave is a veteran would be an understatement. He’s been selling cars for BMW for over 30 years.

Dave made the entire car buying experience a complete breeze. From handling all the details of European delivery to walking me through every detail of the process. He helped me get a great deal and put my mind at ease at every stage.

Dave is a rarity — an old breed that cares about the customer, gets straight to business, and goes the extra mile. If you’re looking for a new car and BMW is on your list, you should pay him a visit.

(And feel free to tell him I sent you.)
