Has anyone used Autobytel, CarsDirect or similar internet car-buying service for an ED car?

If you're thinking internet dealer, why not just go with Adrian from Nalley BMW. They are a board sponsor.
He offers good prices as well as service especially with European Delivery. Also answers your messages pretty fast.

The prices from those guys can be higher, I would rather negotiate directly with your local dealers or call some of the recommended ones here.

carsdirect should be used to establish the maximum you should pay for the car. If it is not much more than you want to pay, or if you do not want to go through the hassle of buying a car yourself buy it through them. If you do the negotiating yourself you will always do better than them. After all carsdirect is adding their commission to what they are paying to the dealer.

I did much better talking to the dealer.
