Where is the best place to buy OEM parts?

Hi all.

New here, been lurking on BimmerPost for the past few weeks since purchasing my first M, 2015 F80 in Sakhir Orange. Always wanted an M car but due to life, it was put on hold till now. Some of my previous cars, nothing fancy: '04 Audi A4, '08 335i, '10 Q5.

Just wondering where everyone buys their OEM parts from, of course best price + reputation.

Welcome to Bimmerpost, and congratulations on your M3 purchase.

You can use a Google search like this:

https://www.google.com/search?q=buy+...bimmerpost.com

To leverage knowledge from past discussions across the whole website. I’ll bet there are a lot of great suggestions in those threads.

Often my local dealership which will price match GetBMWParts plus I don't pay shipping.

And then you pay sales tax. Depending on the amount of the purchase and sales tax in your state you can end up paying more.

What are forum rules for mentioning places for parts.

Is it Forum sponsors only or what?

I have someone asking in another thread and do not want to break forum rules?

Which is another advantage to my local dealership in my case, 0% sales tax here.
