While not the least expensive in town. They treat you with respect.they do the necessary work fast and stand behind their work. Excellent company I will bring my Audi next time I need mechanical work. They earned my trust.
Very welcoming and professional. Will be back, glad to have found them! Reasonably priced and very detailed work. Thanks Bavarian!
Just drove home and the car performance brought tears to my eyes! The work done by the Bavarian team made it possible for me to enjoy driving my car instead of just staring at it in my garage. Thanks!
Great place to take your beloved vehicles. I tried dealerships around the area and no one would even call back or give a quote. Very lucky to find this wonderful crew to take care of my full brake job front and rear. They have a quote same day and had me worked into the schedule at my convenience. Unbelievable service and experience! Keep up the fantastic job and I am pleased to have a reliable garage for any future needs.Without a doubt, best shop for your high end vehicles ✊️
These guys are professional. They do the same services that the dealership does but cheaper. The owner Shawn is a great guy. Very personable and knows his stuff. I would definitely recommend Bavarian to anyone.
I have a 1998 BMW Z3 2.8, that has been modified with a lot of custom parts and when it was not running correctly and the Check Engine light came on I reached out to Bavarian Rennsport. Being relatively new to the area, left in 2002, I was not sure where to go with my Z3 that was not the Dealership. Call the shop and made an appointment, after getting to the shop and meeting everyone I knew that I made the correct decision. I left my Z3 with them for initial diagnostics, they were able to provide me with the items that were in need of repair. They are very professional and explained everything that needed to be completed. If you are looking for a place to take your BMW to get an item repaired this is the place. Very knowledgeable and professional. I would not hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for a great alternative to the dealership.
These guys are very helpful, punctual and do an excellent job communicating and keeping you in the loop every step of the way. They worked with my warranty company seamlessly, and got my parts ordered and installed in a very timely fashion. Highly recommend.
They definitely know their business. Knowledgeable and direct about issues. I will go back as I need another repair and hopefully for some performance mods in the near future.
That whole remark is a lie if you notice all the responses are the same its always the customer didnt have the money thats a bogus excuse the customer just wasnt going to let you rip them off any farther. I spent over $4,000 in one year with this shop these guys just didnt know what they were doing have they always want to overcharge you or find other problems with your car to make more money. The owner never called thats a lie car sat up there for a year cuz nobody ever contacted me on what was wrong with it and you couldnt rip me off for more money call her looks like hes on pills always wearing Dark Shades even at night and a known felon will always tell you that his business is faith based full of integrity while hes ripping you off
Very pleased with the quality of work and friendly environment. They made my experience easy. I’ll definitely be back to complete my schedule maintenance.
Italo and crew were excellent!They practiced no contact service at the height of COVID, and that started off a great impression of their care.They took care of the items I took my BMW X3 in for and discovered another item i was unaware of that needed repair.They waited for my approval (or denial) before proceeding and extremely happy with their professionalism.Try them out if you really care about your vehicle being done right.
Their work is awesome and theyre time frames is on par. They keep you up to date on everything so you never have to worry about whats going on. They do not do short cut on your car they fixed it how it should. If you want honest hard workers thats where its at. now you see why they are rated the number one in Jacksonville.
The whole experience with Bavarian Rennsport was top notch. Very knowledgeable staff, they communicate extremely well and their repair timeline can be trusted. I will be coming back for all of my European car needs.
These guys are awesome. Will not have anyone else work on my BMW M2 Competition. Very professional.
Bavarian is the best car shop Ive used in Jax! Customer service is A1 staff and owner are extremely friendly. You can tell its a family business, they make it easy to give them your money lol. I would trust anyone else with my car!
Through a friend’s recommendation, I called and talked to Dara and Chris about upgrading the exhaust on my 2015 Audi A6 3.0T. From the very start they were amazing. Chris researched a couple options and did a stellar job discussing and installing. Dara was super helpful and always kept me updated. They are great communicators and a well run operation. I highly recommend and look forward to doing more business in the future.
These guys breathe BMWs snd it shows in the quality of their work and straightforward knowledge. Thank you, Baverien renne !!
We brought our 2015 Mini Cooper from Palm Coast to your Jacksonville shop for diagnostic work.We could not be happier !!Italo and Jeremy were a pleasure to work with!!All along the way they kept us updated on the car’s progress via phone or text.Our mini is running like a top!!!We highly recommend Bavarian Rennsport .We Will bring our Mini Cooper here for all future repairs !!!Thanks so much for your honesty and fine service!!!!
Would not take my BMW to any other shop. These guys take great care of me and my car.
I took my BMW M3 Comp to Bavarian Rennsport to a get tune and words cannot express how happy I’m now with my car. Bavarian was very professional and courteous. They took the time to understand my needs and what I was looking for and they delivered. Highly recommended!
When we moved to Jacksonville I was pleased to find a shop to take care of my Porsche. From the first visit to Bavarian Rennsport’s website I was impressed with the detailed information and ability to book an appointment online. I opted to not book online and give the shop a call. I spoke with Dara one of the owners and she was very nice and informative. She was not only able to book my appointment but she also had the Porsche technician get on the phone to answer some of my questions. When I arrived for my appointment I was immediately greeted at my car by a young man who was eager to welcome me by my name and check my car in for my appointment . I have to admit, I felt kinda important. Once I was checked in, Jeffrey the Porsche Tech came over and discussed all my concerns while the young man took detailed notes of our conversation. Considering my laundry list of maintenance request was going to take a couple of days, they got me a ride home. Another nice perk. Once the work was completed, I received a phone call and text notifying me the work was done. I wasn’t going to be able to pick up the car during normal business hours, so they made an exception and met me after hours to pickup. This shop goes over and beyond to make its customers happy and to feel like a friend. The facility is very clean, organized and very welcoming. The work is quality and affordable. Bavarian Rennsport, you earned my business!
The service, the cooperation and frankly the genuine friendship Bavarian Rennsport has extended to my family cant be overstated. Im military and stationed away from Jacksonville so to know that they can be trusted to maintain my wifes vehicle while Im away has been a huge stress relief. Not only has Bavarian Rennsport done exceptional work, but they have done so with the intent of making it as easy as possible for us. No matter the repair we were treated fairly. No matter the circumstances, having our car with Bavarian presented no challenges to our routine. I give them my strongest recommendation and our sincere thanks.
Car was there for at least two months with limited amount of techs, couldnt wait anymore and had to snatch from them and take it to a dealer. Not cool at all! Because you spent extra time on the vehicle at no charge I will leave a 5 star based on that!
Really love their customer service and their professionalism. Fabulous attitude and always fix my car right the first time. Just amazing service every time I drop my car off!
Wonderful customer experience all around with A++ service.
Wonderful service, smoking hot technicians 😉
Great service...better than the dealership.
Great overall experience.
Highest quality operation in Jacksonville. Im thankful to have found Bavarian Rennsport!
I would highly recommend this company over going to a Porsche dealership For servicing. They provided white glove pick up and delivery of my vehicle in an enclosed transportation vehicle. They took exceptional care of my car and did everything plus reported out other items that the dealer would not have done. My car is a 2015 Porsche 911 GTS Carrera and even though I have barely 16,000 miles on the car it was required for a 60,000 mile check up. The owner personally went over with me every detail that was needed and ensure the work was properly done. Excellent value For a classic car. Their parking lot is loaded with every kind of classic car you can imagine. Very happy with their work. Rose Miller
Shawn and his team maintain, store and transport over a dozen of my personal exotic car collection. Shawn has assisted me in managing my collection for over 20 years. He’s always been there to help get my cars track or road rally ready with very short notice. The best part of working with Bavarian RennSport is they make it affordable to drive exotic cars.
All I did was ask for a quote and I was asked for my phone number and my email. They said that by Florida law a quote takes 48 hours to process. What? I know whats wrong and I wanted to get it fixed. Im not sure why the run around. I just wanted a quote. Couldnt get one. Way too complicated for an auto repair. Going somewhere else that already gave me a quote without all the questions. I was just trying to do a price comparison but my God. Geez!
After many letdowns from my local BMW dealer, I needed a new BMW shop that I could trust to give me accurate information about my car. Bavarian Rennsports staff is respectful and attentive to my cars needs . I love their 2 year warranty on their repairs and the photos of the evident issues properly paint a picture of my cars health. I didnt trust anyone else with my German cars until I met these guys. Keep up the great work!Respectfully,Ray Felix
Everyone was very professional and kind, they got me in and out very fast; cheaper than dealerships for sure!Alessandro D.
These guys are top class. They give you full transparency on the work theyve done, costs and timing. Sean is a great owner and he has a great team.
The reason I’m leaving 5 stars cause google won’t allow for more!First time here, very professional staff, detailed about what they see wrong with your car, and very prompt. I’m more than satisfied with how my car feels now thanks to Italo and Jermey. (I hope I spelled your guys name correctly) Thanks guys! Will be back for sure!
My 2010 335i was throwing a mystery code neither I nor other specialty shops could figure out. Enter the experts at Bavarian Rennsport. In a few hours they were able to figure out the cause, talk me through the remediation, and get the work done. Oh and they picked up and dropped the car off. Superb service, excellent communication, and expertise unlike any others in Jax. Cant recommend enough.
Im the proud owner of a 2011 BMW X5 XDrive 35d. Ive spent a lot of money to figure out an engine light problem. One mechanic made me replace all kind of parts, every time I drove a few mile, the light came back. After a while, I took it to the dealer, I decide to take it to the dealer. I took it to the dealer twice, both times, I had to replace something different, the problem still was not resolved. It was not until I got referred to Bavarian, the problem got diagnosed correctly. What I like about Bavarian is that they send you pictures showing what theyre doing/ what parts they are replacing/the condition of the parts, even showing you all the Diagnostic codes before they do anything to your car. I will recommend them to anyone. European vehicles are their specialty.Gueldo
Ive had my 2006 Porsche Cayman S serviced here twice now and could not be more satisfied. I feel they mix the right amount of professionalism with courtesy making the entire experience as simple and stress-free as possible. They ensure you understand the situation and advise what options you have in a nice personable manner as well. If you are looking for a respectable place with knowledgeable people, pay them a visit.
I can not recommend this shop enough. I have never actually enjoyed my experiences with any mechanics shop until this one. Bavarian has helped me with a few issues as well as helped with some performance parts and I dont think I could be anymore satisfied. Everyone I have talked to or dealt with has been knowledgeable, professional, and courteous while also taking the time to make sure my concerns have been met. This will be the only shop that touches my car going forward and I highly recommend them over anywhere else.
Shawn and Dara were the most professional and honest repair shop for my BMW m3 they went above and beyond to help store my car when I was struggling with plates and tags they are also gonna do my rod bearings and they got this whole operation started almost overnight I am very pleased with everything they have done and it’s a huge piece of mind knowing that they are also m3 owners and enthusiast as well as there staff being extremely professional and family thank you very much
2009 Bmw 135iMy relationship with Bavarian Rennsport began with me calling them not knowing what was going on with my car. They quickly had my car towed to the shop, started diagnostics and later that week gave me a full understanding of what was going on with my car. After a short period of time, the car was fixed and I was on the road again. I was able to leave with piece of mind and confidence in The condition of the car. The team at Rennsport is truly like no other. They treated me like family, kept me updated on the condition of the car, reassured me when I was overwhelmed, and conducted business in a very professional manor. I am blessed that my car was taken to Rennsport rather than any other shop or dealer. This team is comprised of true BMW enthusiasts who are passionate of the work that they do. They went above and beyond and their exceptional work shows in my car. I will continue to conduct business with them and I greatly appreciate everything they have done for me and my car.
Quickly diagnosed the issue with my car and repaired it. Best in the business.
I wanted to get the crank hub on my F80 M3 upgraded and looked around Jacksonville and surrounding cities (Orlando, Tampa) to find the right place. The crank hub is no easy task and requires an expert technician to complete. I called Bavarian Rennsport and set up a time to visit the shop and discuss the project. I was greeted by Chaz, Shawn, the owner and his team who took the time to discuss my car and future plans. I want to go with Pure Turbos in the future and we discussed the right steps and parts needed to safely run the upgraded turbos. I just picked my car up last night after the upgraded crank hub and charge pipes and the car runs better than ever. They also identified some wiring that had an issues and took care of it. I couldn’t be happier with the service and would recommend Bavarian Rennsport to anyone with a BMW or European car. They are simply the best.
The staff at Bavarian Rennsport really are good people. I took my BMW here for a diagnosis and they were very transparent about my issues. The owner expressed reasonable concerns from a previous visit to Melbourne bmw. He made sure that any concerns i had were addressed. I will return without a doubt to this shop. I really appreciate the honesty, integrity, and hard work from this staff.
I was interested in using you for my new engine, but you sent a total lack of info and what u did send was not clear. U should clear up what u are sending people. People want specifics when buying a new engine. This is an addendem to the post. When I posted the above, a man from this company called me and was extremely obnoxious. He did not want to know why my post was as i did it. He simply started to berate me for posting as I did. What that told me was that my post was correct and that his business tactics were awful. When I first inquired about an engine, I was looking for help, and did not get any from him. So if you are someone looking for engine help, this does not seem the place to find it
I called in to get a quote. Within minutes, I was emailed a detailed quote with a a link to accept or decline the services. It could have been easier to schedule an appointment, they were able to take my vehicle in the same day. I was able to drop off and pick up my vehicle without any contact, which is great considering social distancing. If I could give this mechanic more stars, I would. Thank you for your help and honest prices, and thank you for honoring military service members.
Bavarian Rennsport provides great service on my 535i. I needed the Driver Seat rear panel repaired. BR did a fabulous job on my car and I am very happy with that as well as the appearance...looks brand new! I will be using BR for my upcoming Oil Change service to see how I like their product
Excellent customer service, attention to detail, professional, passionate about their work. Highly recommend to all motor enthusiasts.
They did a fantastic job, service was excellent and they were highly knowledgeable, far beyond the typical mechanic. They helped me prepare my BMW M4 for my very first track day and I had a great experience and look forward to having more of their help in the future.
Service was excellent and fast. My truck truly runs so much better. I have found my new mechanic and am very grateful to find someone I feel I can trust!
Great shop all the way around!!! Took both our vehicles for routine service and was VERY pleased with the proper OEM products used as well as the service performed by the technicians. Very easy and smooth to book an appointment online through their website, and the communication delivered was outstanding.
I recently bought an e46 m3 and wanted to get it tuned up and checked out. I heard that this place was the best around and throughout my experience I was shown that. They keep in touch with calls, texts, and pictures describing what they are doing and if you want them to proceed. They work with you on price with financing help, and treat your car as their own and are happy to do so. Upon picking up my car I had a decent talk with shop owner Shawn and could see his enthusiasm in this industry, highly recommend for any euro or high end sport, this is your place!
Great customer service, always let us know what was going on and up front. Staff and associates always professional. They where awesome with our little boy and his gazillion questions. Finally got our car running amazing!! Thanks again!!
The guys had gone out of their way to put me back on the road with my BMW M4. Chaz, Shawn, and the techs are all true enthusiast of European performance vehicles! They truly care about their customers and the service they provide!! Hands down 5xxx
As a return customer, I am still very happy with the care and quality of my service. I went in for an oil change but decided last minute to get my wheel alignment. Mind you I had an appointment for next week at another shop but was pleased to add this service now without further wait.
These guys are awesome! Best place on the beaches and in Florida for that matter to take your euro or exotic. I have several cars and these guys take great care of them all.
Knowledgeable staff, extremely clean environment and organized like I’ve never seen before. If I walk in a shop and can eat off the floors that tells me something. Also the issue was resolved quickly and with minimal money spend. They don’t mind working with you and patch the problem till you get enough money to fix it right. Also, $99 an hour is a deal compared to BMW that charges $149. Same knowledgeable techs, less money. I’m good with that. A+ in my books.
These guys are awesome! Anytime we need help they are there. In all my years owning sports cars and working with car techs these guys are by far the best. Superior knowledge, experience, and customer service. Would definitely recommend them!
Good group of people here. I recently bought a bmw and wasn’t very knowledgeable on the cars. Went and got it inspected here day after I bought it. They taught me a few things on it and are very helpful
Great service and friendly helpful staff! Convenient location!
Fast Service, although very busy. Very helpful & informative. Very affordable fir the quality of their work. Highly recommend!
My visit to Bavarian Rennsport(BR) was met with a pricey repair bill but Austin at the service desk made it very bearable. His professionalism and great customer service skills combined with the owner Seans, personable and welcoming spirit made the experience an easy one. I would trust them with the maintenance of any vehicle I own.
I was very pleased to stumble across Bavarian Rennsport when I was having issues with my 2015 VW Golf TDI Wagon. The team at BR was extremely professional, thoughtful, and explained things to me in non-technical terms so I understood what was going on. The diagnostic report readout was also especially helpful. The service I received is far and above what I have seen at other shops in the Northeast Florida region.
Great customer service! Trustworthy and reliable. I consider that a luxury in these times. They officially have a new customer in me!
This is one of the best shops in Jacksonville. They are knowledgeable, polite, efficient, and excellent at communicating with me regarding the status of my vehicle. Would recommend to anyone.
When my husband and I purchased our Aston Martins and brought them home to Jacksonville we had a little worry... “who was going to work on our cars so we didn’t have to drive back to Miami” ... when my husband called me so excited that he found a shop on Mayport Road I was so happy and then he mentioned the owners name and I was extremely happy! Before we had our cars in the shop I knew of Shawns character and knew he would only have the best working for him. We have had both cars in to have work done and he exceeded our expectations.. they did the work as they quoted and didn’t try to over sell us on other work that “may” need to be done.. I would recommend Bavarian Rennsport to anyone who needed work on their exotic cars. Thank you Shawn and all at Bavarian sports for your professionalism and quality of work!
Best place in jax
I’ve had my F30 335i serviced and modified by Shawn and his team at Bavarian Rennsport for the past 2 years. They are the most honest and hardworking Indy shop you can find in North Florida. They go above and beyond for their clients. I’ll be taking my vehicle to Bavarian Rennsport for as long as I own a BMW.
The team at Bavarian Rennsport was professional, timely, informative and fair. Special props go out the team there, and a special one to Chas for my many calls AND, delivered my car to me. Great service and Covid friendly. Thanks again.Russ 535i xDrive M version
I highly recommend this shop. I had my BMW serviced this week and was very IMPRESSED. They are very professional, prompt and courteous. I will continue to take my car to them, because I know its in good hands.4
Super friendly and professional. Easy to get an appointment. Definitely going back here for BMW service.
Once again, my experience with Bavarian Rennsport did not disappoint! The level of customer service is outstanding and the prices are great. Thanks guys for taking care of my vehicle again, as well as going above and beyond.-Rebecca H.
Exceptional customer service. I took my E92 M3 for a rod bearing replacement and I couldnt be happier. These guys truly amazing and and far from the average mom and pop backyard mechanic shop. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and treat your vehicle like its their own.
Had the Mercedes SUV in with a check engine light. Emissions issue identified immediately with Mercedes automotive diagnostics tool that Stuttgart licenses to worthy independent shops like Bavarian Rennsport. Part installed. A week later had a 900+ mile round trip with total confidence in the Master Technician who performed the service. I shall return for scheduled maintenance and any other issues that may crop up on down the road.
So far this shop and people in it have proven very capable and well. I contacted them on a WED night regarding an oil leak. They took me in the next morning, had parts ordered that afternoon once a diagnosis was made. The part was overnight shipped and installed. I picked the car up SAT. Very good timing, efficient and the car isnt leaking oil anymore. The Owner and a few techs also showed me the culprit when I went to pick up the car. Very good experience and thank you to the North Florida BMW guys that recommended this shop. Will update if anything changes.
Took my car in for oil change service and also advised on a/c not blowing cold on half the vents. Was advised it was a $2000 repair to fix the leak in the A/c unit.Got a second opinion and it turned out there was no leak and repaired for $90 with additional freon added.Not sure I will be back!
Very responsive, pleasant people throughout the process for two different cars (Porsche and Audi) with a couple different issues. Will return no doubt.
After having issue with my 335i charge pipe we brought our vehicle here. I could not be more satisfied with work that was done. Austin was my service technician and he worked hard to ensure that I not only understood the problem but what it would take to fix it. The communication and the level of customer service went beyond my expectations. This will be the only place I bring my vehicle from now on. Thanks again for the superb customer service.
Great job and customer service! Highly recommend!
Dropped off my X5 during the covid pandemic to have a few items checked out. The shops website was easy to use to book the appointment and there set up for social distancing was actually really cool. I dropped my key in the lock box rang their door bell to let them know the key had been dropped off and left. They texted me about 20 mins later to let me know they started the inspection. Then sent me a report via text and email and sent me a code to open one of the lock boxes to retrieve my key for pickup. Id say this was the most prompt, tech friendly, easy to use mechanic service Ive ever experienced.
This shop is amazing! From the minute I called I knew they would take good care of me and my BMW. I highly recommend this shop if you drive any of the cars they work on.
Very knowledgeable, and friendly staff. They answered all of my questions very thoroughly so that I could better understand my bmw. You guys weaned me as a lifetime client!
Used instead of the dealership for a recent service and they did a great job for a good price--will be back soon!
Went in for only a diagnosis test on my bmw and leave with the check engine light on..there not that much cheaper then the dealership..so I just decided to take it to the bmw dealership and have the work done.im just being honest...the staff is good people and customer service was great.....understand people. This is just my honest opinion....
We have had nothing but amazing experiences here. Austin has always been extremely helpful, friendly, and prompt with all communications. The shop has always been willing and flexible with us in regards to taking care of our vehicle, and their work is always top notch. I definitely recommend!
Not a good experience at this shop...First I was referred as an excellent shop but I experience otherwise..Took my BMW for brake job and oil changeThey treated me very nicely..The next day after brought the Bmw home saw a puddle of oil on the floor on my garageMy car never leaked oilI called and try to explain it to them over the phone about the oil leakI was told to bring it back to be lookedAt that point I lost faith and didn’t trust this shop because I knew they did something wrong on the car. So I took it to Tom Bush BMW on Atlantic and they found out that the oil filter was not tightened up enough and the rubber was pinchedVery disappointed and won’t recommend anyone at this shopIf they can’t do an oil change right they don’t deserve my businessYou will be better off going straight to the BMW dealership
Very good service. Our car broke down on vacation, and they fixed it very quickly. The mechanic is extremely knowledgeable about our car (BMW E39).
Bavarian Rennsport was able to fix a problem with the right front turn signal on my wife’s Mercedes-Benz that had bugged us for over a month. A mechanic from another repair center had replaced the bulb four times. It was still not fixed. So I brought the car to Bavarian Rennsport and they found the trouble and corrected the problem. Great place and their team was very professional and took time to explain what the trouble was. We will be coming back in the futurre. Thanks again. Bill and June Williams
Awesome Shop! Family Owned & Faith Based. This shop is a true class act. I will never go back to the dealer again.
Friendly service at a better price than the major dealers.
As a former BMW technician at Bavarian Rennsport I can say that quality is #1. Shawn and Dara definitely believe in customer satisfaction, and getting the job done right the first time around. Future customers should feel at ease when choosing this facility because Shawn will make sure the techs have the correct tools and information to complete any job correctly.Imani KeytonAtlanta, GA
I can’t say enough great things about these guys. I’m a huge Volkswagen Audi fan and they handle all of my setups, even my mom’s VW. Very professional with a family feel. If you are looking for an automatic repair shop and you are anywhere around the beaches area or across town for the matter you havie to check out Bavarian.
I love this place. Chaz is great, in fact, everyone who works here is terrific. I find them to be honest, trustworthy and it’s my new go-to in Jax for all my BMW repairs.
