I'm hoping someone out there can offer up a suggestion where to have my Z3 serviced.

I live in Denville so the Morristown and Roxbury dealerships aren't that far but I was wondering if anyone knows of an independent service specialist in the neighborhood.

This is my first Z, my first BMW and I would like to treat it with care.

Thanks.

There are some things you can't avoid taking your car to the dealership for, and every now and then I take mine to Roxbury or Morristown. I live locally to the Roxbury dealership, but have taken my car to Phil's Foreign Car Service in Kevil, NJ for the last 2 years. I use Phil's garage for all the routine maintenance and repair work. Phil's is just East of Roxbury BMW on Rt 46 by about a mile. I've also taken my other foreign cars there before as well. Good service, priced reasonably for import service.

Thanks for the info on Phil's. I know just where he is.

When you mentioned there are some things you have to go to a dealer for I know what you mean. Prior to the owning my Z3 I had a 350Z and I brought it to the dealer for everything...I didn't want to go anywhere else. I thought I'd reach out and see what others do for service etc.

While I was between houses I rented on Washington so I wanted to make sure of where to go. Washington is by the court house, right?
