Founded in 2012 by BMW master technician Luis “Lou” Ramos, BMW Auto Center began as a two-lift specialty shop squeezing between warehouses off West 79th Street. Word-of-mouth among South-Florida Bimmer owners—“dealer skill without the dealer bill”—grew the business into today’s 10-bay German-car service center plus parts warehouse. The company incorporated as BMW Auto Center Inc in 2014 and remains family-owned and operated.
