    General Manager

    Hello there,

    I am Barry Bolio, the General Manager here at Sandia BMW. With 30 years of experience in the automotive industry, I’ve been proudly serving our customers since 2005. Beyond the showroom, you’ll find me indulging in my passions for mountain biking, skiing on the slopes of New Mexico, and cruising in my boat on weekends. What truly makes Sandia BMW special to me is the sense of family we’ve cultivated among our customers and employees. Every day, I look forward to coming to work and being part of this vibrant community. When it comes to BMWs, my top picks are the timeless classics: the e39 M5 and the iconic e46 M3. Looking forward to welcoming you to our Sandia BMW family,

    Barry Bolio
