Smallest BMW dealership in the US?

A funny thought came to me last night.. I was thinking how small the smallest BMW dealership in the US would be.... would there be only 1 car in the showroom? the area is so small it doesn't even look like a car dealership? where is it located?
So has anyone been to a really tiny BMW showroom? I'm not talking about used BMW dealerships, but an actual real dealership that sells new BMWs....

Pace Bmw. New Rochelle, N.Y. That where I bought mine. Their show room is shared with Honda. It only fits 2 vehicles. One was a Honda Accord and the other was a BMW 740. The mechanic shop, from what I saw had only 2 lifts. Their new car parking lot holds like 15 cars. But I gues the do big sales.

UCSD,

I bought my 540 there at a huge discount, no buyers!! I had a deposit for an M5 there a long time ago. After I recieved mine from another dealership, I called back to get my deposit back from F&S, they THANKED me for concelling the order, they could not even get one allotment!! Now that's small!

This is an interesting question.... does anyone know who the largest dealer is? Are they in the U.S.?? Surely, we can get access to dealer sales volume..
