Reserve your 2013 BMW today
The wait is over... Karl Knauz BMW is now accepting reservations for the 2013 BMW Models including the:
- 2013 BMW X1 Sport Activity Vehicle - Enough room for you, your friends and your performance-loving side.
- 2013 BMW M5 - When it comes to performance, the all-new M5 doesn't just pass the competition—it laps it. In fact, it boasts the most powerful engine ever outfitted in an M5. And when you pair that with the high-torque 7-speed M-Double Clutch Transmission, you'll go soaring from 0-60 mph in an astounding 4.3 seconds.
- 2013 BMW M6 Coupe and Convertible - After a two-year hiatus, the third generation of the M6 is back and making quite a powerful impression on the street. It boasts the most powerful engine ever outfitted in a BMW paired with a high-torque 7-speed M-Double Clutch. And just like its predecessor, its roof is molded from natural Carbon Fiber Composite for a more athletic stance.
- 2013 BMW 7-Series - Redesigned features are found on every luxurious inch of the new 7 Series. New LED headlights on the exterior give it style. And the interior has a redesigned iDrive system set in the center of two new slender, ergonomic seats. Plus, now that it will feature the intelligent 8-speed Steptronic automatic transmission, an already powerful machine is also efficient. Clearly, power is just as significant as design.

You can be sure that our Body Shop offers:

Small Repairs
To own a vehicle is to take pride in its timeless design and effortless style. But regardless of the care you take in maintaining the appearance of your vehicle, sometimes damage can´t be avoided. Whether it's a rock chip, a spill, a sharp object piercing the interior, a wheel making contact with the curb, or seasonal hazards like road grime or salt attacking your rims, Knauz has the solution.
Wheels
Few parts of your vehicle are as readily noticed as the alloy rims. Unfortunately, even the most stunning wheels are susceptible to damage.
If winter road salt or a bump against the curb has left your rims looking less than spectacular, our Body Shop has the technology to make the finish look just like new at a fraction of the cost of a new rim.
Please note that not all wheel damage can be repaired, depending on severity.
Sticks and Stones
When a stone makes contact with your windshield it can create significant appearance and safety implications, especially if left untreated.
To avoid replacing the entire windshield, our Body Shop can fix cracks and stone chips quickly using resins to seal the glass, and polish to take care of pitting.
Keep in mind that this system is only intended to repair minor problems outside of the driver´s field of vision, and is not meant to take care of an issue that has failed a state safety inspection program.
Interior Repairs
Leather or Leatherette seating, polished wood trim, aluminum accents, ceiling fabric or carpet - they're all susceptible to daily wear and tear or surface contamination.
Minor scratches, blemishes, and other superficial damage to your vehicle´s interior can be repaired at our Body Shop, with the product expertise needed to determine the best repair tools and materials for the job
