If my memory serves me correctly, I have been taking my 2003 BMW Z4 to BME for 4+ years, I had actually received a recommendation for someone who had all of the cars serviced by BME & had moved to the mainland. He said if I come back to Hawaii, I would use them in a heartbeat! I have never been disappointed with their service or the staff’s professionalism. I would highly recommend this place if you want it done correctly!

BME provides friendly service as well the great work on your car for which they are already well known. My father worked with them for as long as I can remember and I have been a loyal customer for the last 10 years. Excellent service and good work are their hallmark.

We brought our BMW to BME since we moved here over 4 years ago and the only reason we are stopping is because we are moving off Island. They are above and beyond helpful and have been that way since day 1. They have always talked to us with honesty and respect. I would recommend this shop every time to any one. Their pricing for Island is completely reasonable. I wish them nothing but continued success and business longevity. Mahalo.

Our 2017 Porsche Macan was having issues with a warning message regarding the fuel system. Several warnings happened over a span of 6 months. This last time I took the car into BME, the mechanic asked if he could use the car for a week or two to understand when and why the warnings came up since in prior appointments BME could not find anything wrong. They tested the car, drove the car and went above and beyond to try to get to the bottom of the issue. They have a theory of what was going on and assured us the car is safe to drive and to bring in the car if the warning message comes up. Dealing with BME even with a car repair issue is refreshing. You feel like they really care about you and the car. I would recommend BME to anyone.

Leif and Layden have been taking care of all of my European cars for years. In the earlier years I would shop around for prices and opinions from dealerships and other 3rd party shops. They have by far been the most honest and reasonably priced BMW and Mercedes Benz shop. They will personally handle your service job and keep you updated at all times. I’m so glad to have found them many years ago and I’ll continue to trust them in the years to come!

Had major work done on our 2008 BMW 335i sport convertible hardtop which we bought new. BME has done a great job of maintaining and repairing the car since we brought it to Hawaii in early 2022. Very prompt and reasonable prices, and done correctly the first time. To be clear, a “reasonable price” is as good as it gets with a BMW.

I went in for the annual oil change but they also found that the coolant needed to be changed and a belt was worn. For both issues, I was called first to approve and they explained why the new services were needed and what time frame was recommended to take care of them. They patiently answered all my questions. As a woman, I never feel like they are up selling or taking advantage of me. Just trying to keep me and my car safe. I highly recommend Leif and his awesome team!

BME provides excellent service on my 2016 MBZ E400. Switched from Mercedes Benz of Honolulu. Easier to make appointments, quality parts, and a lot less expensive.

I recently relocated to Hawaii and was advised to visit this establishment for vehicle maintenance services. I must commend their exceptional craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail in servicing and maintaining my vehicle. As a discerning individual, I am highly selective about who handles my vehicle, and I am thoroughly impressed with the quality of their work thus far. I wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone seeking reliable and professional vehicle maintenance.

Reliable and high-quality service I had a great experience with this garage. The staff was friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable and finished the job on time. The pricing was fair, and the quality of the work was excellent.

Update 7/7/23 Well it is what is is. My car needs extensive repairs but Bavarian is not squandering any opportunity to fix it at a fair if not good price. They are walking us step by step and being more transparent than bay window. We deeply appreciate the fine work and manhours put forth to restore ourX5. Stopped in to see if they could assist me with my BMW that needs some tender, loving care. Although they haven't worked on it yet, just their initial contact hospitality is enough for me to give them five stars. I understand here in Honolulu they are the foremost expert in their field. If you decide to buy or own a BMW , you should already know it’s not cheap. That being said they’re reasonable, fair and I returned paid and got my report /car. Looking forward to having all my work done here.

Excellent service at reasonable prices for Hawaii...keep it that way. The closer you are to the dealership in price the easier it is for the consumer to pick the dealership.

I needed assistance procuring a reflector for my 5 series. I emailed the store and got a response from Leif within 24 hours. He was incredibly friendly both via email providing updates on my order and in-person. When I came into the shop, we found that the part he received did not fit in the bumper slot, but he went the extra mile and cut an additional hole into the bumper slot to allow the reflector to fit. An overall successful experience and I will certainly be returning in the future.

Porsche Hawaii diagnosed a faulty transfer case in my 2016 Macan S with 11,000 miles. BME’s diagnosis was a faulty RF brake sensor. BME diagnos and repair saved me over $6,000.

The team and expert technicians at BME are always great. They really know about BMWs. We have 2 BMW SUVs and we used to have them both serviced at BMW of Honolulu. We go here now... superior follow up, communication and affordable pricing. They even worked with the extended warranty company to make sure we got all our eligible repairs covered. Aloha BME team!

I took my Mini Cooper in to have the front spoiler replaced. I had gotten an estimate from BMW of Honolulu in the neighborhood of $1500, but BME’s estimate was about $700 cheaper. Laydon and his team were great. They completed the work the same day (the part had been ordered in advance), were thorough, efficient, and I’m very pleased with their work. They did the job for less money and faster. The shop is well-run, clean and organized. The owner was there as well and even introduced himself! It felt like my car was being given personal, boutique service. Such a refreshing change from the long waits, expensive service, and impersonal approach of BMW. I will now take my car back to BME for all its service needs.
