    Well, they are not bad, depends on the item. Have to check more parts and compare with my favorite Autohaus Arizona.

    ignition wires are cheap respect. similar to Autohaus and of course both are cheaper than bavauto

    or wear parts for example:

    I take my 750 as example: all prices net

    distributor Bremi $39.59
    rotor Bremi $13.97
    rotor Bosch $18.83

    Autohaus AZ

    distributor Bosch $ 50.17
    rotor Bosch $16.69

    As it's the name of a real place, I haven't used a profanity!

    Default For OEM parts...

    this site sure as hell beats the dealer for those oem parts noone else has. I've never bought anything from BMA so i'm not sure how that compares

    www.bmaparts.com is still better in all respects. Cheaper prices, knowledgeable service, and shipping is FAST and cheap.

    I take issue with "knowledgeable service". I do like their prices, buty I have been shipped incorrect parts on more than 1 instance. "Service" in that they corrected the problem both times was good, but it is aggervating to receive a radiator for a 525 on Friday when you ordered a radiator for a 535 earlier in the week, planning to install it on Saturday. I have switched my business from BMA to Autohauss for that very reason.
