"Is it the sounds that make a BMW a BMW? A BMW is designed to be heard, felt, experienced. So our engines sing. Our steering talks back. And we insist on offering manual transmissions in nearly all our models for drivers who crave them. The result is an almost telepathic oneness with the car. Just as surely as you can hear a BMW, a BMW hears you."

These guys are around the corner from Charles Henry. They specialize in selling previously owned higher end cars. They've been there for quite a while. The best thing is to go in and check them out as well as their bodyshop and see what kind of cars they work on and maybe check out a completed car or two. Seeing is believing and if they are working on a lot of high end cars, their work has to be pretty good.
