Very trustworthy. Manny worked in a BMW dealership service dept in the past and offers service that your BMW needs. Reasonable rates and fast service. Just wish he had weekend hours.

I had a thorough inspection done on my 06 325i. The problems were so extensive, I decided not to do any repairs and donate it instead. Manny listed all the problems in order of importance, was very courteous and understanding, and when I offered to pay for the inspection, he refused. I've been to plenty of repair shops, and this was one of those rare ones that I felt were honest. I would definitely do business here again.

Excellent staff! Very clean and well organized shop compared to others that I have been to. I priced out several independent shops and this was the best price. I was explained the issue, the estimated cost, and it was on target. Manny, the main tech, is extremely professional, courteous, knows his BMW's like the back of his hand and has well over a decade of professional experience and is factory trained.

Manny and the team are the mechanics! I went to Burbank Motorworks to down the street give them a chance but man... that sorry place is a cry from 1 day away from being closed down. Bavarian Built Motors saves the day!

I've been a BMW specialist for more than 30 years. My shop is in Oregon. When my daughter's car required repair when she was on the road in LA she was recommended to Manny. I will vouch for his friendliness, professionalism and thoroughness. Not to mention fair pricing. Thanks

Will def come back. Manny was very knowledgeable and gave me a sense of trust which is hard to get from a mechanic. The pricing was reasonable and the job was done in a timely manner. Will def come back in the even my 335i has any issues. I highly recommend.

I work next door to this business and brought my BMW in to see why my check engine light was on. Needless to say, Manny was awesome. He really went out of his way to help me and explain things. I got a neighborly, good-lookin-out vibe that you usually don’t find with a mechanic. I will bring my car to him from now on and you can feel confident in doing the same. Could not recommend more highly.

Manny is a skilled, informative, detail oriented, honest and trustworthy mechanic. He has done an excellent job servicing my 5 series. His prices are fair and you never get the feeling you are being oversold on a service or part. Just go to see Manny. You will be happy you did.

Manny was extremely knowledgeable and honest. These days is hard to find trustworthy and friendly mechanics, but the folks at Bavarian Built are a great example of 5 star service. Don’t be afraid to bring your BMW here, I promise you will save significantly in comparison to the dealer while receiving a much personable service. Great job!

Took my BMW here and Manny, the owner, did an excellent job in explaining what services I should get in the short term and long term and the prices were very fair. He was also super courteous and the service appointments went smoothly and quickly. If you have a BMW, Manny and his crew will take excellent care of you and your car!

Manny, Arnold and the team at Bavarian Built are the best and even though I'm usually going to them when I have a problem with my car, I still look forward to it! Honest, fair prices, and great work and knowledge of BMWs new and old.

Took my E36 318ti to get serviced and Manny and the Team got it running like a top!!! They took care of it all from transmission, electrical and fluids to brakes, tires, a/c, and bushings a to z. So happy with the quality of work and meticulous attention to detail.

Manny is the best around. Honest, trustworthy, and fair priced for QUALITY work. I take my 335d to him and he keeps me on the road. Bavarian Built was recommended to me by a friend and I have sent more friends over since. See Manny at Bavarian Built for all of your BMW needs.

I got my first BMW recently. An older 2005 325ci convertible. I was nervous about the purchase as it's an older car, but I had read this series is long lasting if you take care of it. Manny and Bravarian have been so helpful to me during this process. I brought it to them for a pre purchase inspection and when I did purchase, Manny quelled my fears and broke down in detail what needed to be done, what could wait, and how I could have the best ride while also keeping my wallet in tact. He made me feel like I had made a good purchase. I won't take my BMW anywhere else. Manny is so helpful and willing to impart is knowledge to you. I find myself giving them a call with random questions and Manny always takes the time to give me answers I can understand which feels above and beyond. I feel safter owning this car knowing I have someone like Manny to bring it to who has a wealth of knowledge and is trustworthy. Can't recommend this place enough.

I found Barvarian Built 3 years ago when purchasing my first M3, 2003 E46 M3, and this shop had the best reviews in my area to get a PPI done. From the moment i drove my car in the shop the owner (Manny) loved it! He was very honest that my car was a piece of junk but definitely saveable if we put the time and money into it. From then on Barvarian Built has been my go to shop for anything and everything! I have been going to school in Arizona for the past few years and if I ever have an issue Manny is my first call, every time he has something of value to tell me about what may be wrong. All he has is my botched idea of what I hear, what lights are on, and what it may look like. Everyone at this shop has been super helpful with me and my car. 95% of the work done on my car has been done at Barvarian Built, I really don’t trust anyone with my car. They love BMWs here at this shop and they take care of everyones car as if it were their own! It’s hard to find a shop that is trustworthy and honest but when you do you tell everyone about their amazing work. Honestly if it weren’t for Barvarian Built my M3 would’ve been in a scrap yard by now, at first it was a wraped, SMG, very neglected “car,” if you can even call it that since it barely drove lol. If you have a BMW or Mini or are thinking of buying one, here’s a shop that will make your time owning the car super easy and will help ease your headaches. Thank you Barvarian Built, you’re the best!
