assuming that is true, then that begs the question

a) Does CNS use Broward Bimmer's equipment for manufacturing and modifying parts?

b) How does all the R&D, manufacturing equipment, etc fit in an approximatley 90 x 75 ft store (as previously asked)?

I believe they are just an indy BMW repair shop. Nothing more/less...

your assuming they're actually manufacturing or modifying parts....I doubt they are doing anything other then putting stickers on other companies parts, putting them in their packaging and jacking the price up.

oh I agree

just wanted to pose questions out there. If the address belongs to Broward Bimmer's it perhaps opens up a whole new can of worms.

It seems the more we dig, the more is uncovered, and the more questions are raised.

your one of the lucky ones, my clutch went out a 35k with no tracking and from what ive read and seen they could have done much better than the design they went with. bmw simply replaced my entire tranny becasue they couldent get second gear to engage after they replaced my clutch. so i agree with that statement.
