I have never associated visiting a car dealership with having a good time, but then again I never visited South Bay MINI. Timmy Yang, my sales associate, is not only passionate and knowledgeable about MINIs, but he is also very enthusiastic about providing excellent customer service. I honestly was pretty ignorant of MINIs and the entire culture surrounding them. Timmy not only sold me an awesome car, but thoroughly educated me about the car and made me fan of MINI for life. The showroom is also well designed and spectacular... read more

Buying a car from a "car salesman", for me, has to be right up there with going to the dentist. My husband loves to buy and look for cars and always works with the Manager of a dealership when he is ready to purchase. That was not the case at South Bay BMW/Mini in Torrance. In fact, we were not even going to buy a car, my husband just wanted to get in a Mini Cooper to see if he would fit in it. Timmy Yang, our salesman appeared with a smile and friendly disposition. He wasn't there to "sell" but there to listen and offer kno... read more

My experience was so outstanding that I felt compelled to write the Owner the folioing note: It's always a pleasure doing business with Southbay BMW, but this time I must take the time to commend a few stellar individuals in your employ who are really serving you well. Julia Quinn is the biggest asset you have in your organization, and it was through her efforts almost entirely that a deal was struck and closed today on my seventh BMW/mini. She took the time to know me, know my needs, and then set about fulfilling them exper... read more

I worked with Timmy in looking for an ideal, but somewhat rare car: A non-S convertible manual. Timmy bent over backwards and ordered the car for me quickstyle, got it to the dealership and even coordinated with another dealer (Chris?) on his day off for us to come see it. Timmy also worked to get our loan preapproved. Alas, it did not work out as personal reasons (namely planning on starting a family) made us chicken out of buying a new car. But Timmy was very professional and gave us a no pressure environment to see the ca... read more

I came into this dealership with a name from a friend. Alex helped me with all my questions and inquiries on the new mini. She was absolutely knowledgeable about every aspect of the car and on top of it, was super friendly! I have already recommended her to my friends shopping for either bmw or mini's. South bay is lucky to have her!

Alex was a real pleasure to work with, getting my new mini from South Bay Mini was flawless. Their selection was the best, we were greeted with a smile, and the overall experience didn't leave us with that bad taste in our mouth. Thank you Alex and South Bay Mini!

Chris, his associates and management made this purchase a pleasant experience with the added benefit of having a very great car in the garage. We had looked at another dealership prior to visiting his office but it did not make an impact. South Bay MINI and the experience with that team made the difference.

What a great experience. Alex Do is simply amazing. If you are a serious MINI enthusiast or just learning more about the brand like I was, I would highly recommend visiting with Alex at South Bay MINI. She is extremely knowledgeable and patient. I probably test drove every vehicle on the lot before choosing my MINI. During the entire process I never felt any pressure. Instead, Alex thoroughly explained all of the different options and packages, making sure I had the perfect MINI for me. Her professionalism and enthusiasm are... read more

I called about a few weeks back inquiring about a particular model mini, and Alex Do received my call. I spoke to her for about 10mins or so asking her questions about the lasted model mini I was interested in buying. Just from the short conversation I had with her I can tell that she had the uttermost professionalism in customer service and was willing to work with over the phone. She was not pushy at all and answered all of my questions. I am definitely going to come in and hopefully purchase a car from South Bay MINI!
