The countdown is on, Lakewood.

After more than a year, we're preparing to officially reopen our Lakewood location, and we couldn't be more excited. This milestone represents countless hours of hard work, determination, and the incredible support we've received from customers, neighbors, and the entire community along the way.

Every step of this journey has reinforced how fortunate we are to serve such a loyal community. Now we're ready to get back to doing what we do best: providing expert service, trusted repairs, and an exceptional experience for every customer who walks through our doors.

You saw the smoke. Now get ready for the comeback.

What could have been the end became the start of something even stronger. After months of rebuilding from the ground up, we’re officially reopening this summer and the wait has been worth it.

A lot has changed behind the scenes, but the heart of our team remains the same. Trusted expertise, honest service, and a commitment to taking care of both you and your vehicle will always drive everything we do.

This next chapter is about more than reopening. It’s about coming back better than ever and reconnecting with the community that stood by us.

Not all cars feel the same once you are behind the wheel.

Mark has been driving BMW for 15 years, and what keeps him loyal is the balance. It is comfortable for everyday driving, but it also has that strong, responsive feel when you need it.

Whether it is accelerating onto the road or just cruising through the day, the car feels steady and in control.

It is the kind of driving experience that makes you enjoy being on the road instead of just getting through it.

That is the difference for him.

Everyone has their own preference.

What do you drive, and what do you like most about it?

They say perfection takes time, but in our case, it mostly takes a lot of laughter. Just another day on set with Ephraim... keeping us on our toes and making sure we don't take ourselves too seriously.

Drop a '😂' if you think this take should have made the final cut!

A place you can walk into and feel at ease.

We know that bringing your car in for service is not always convenient. That is why we have built an environment at Rolf’s Import Auto that feels straightforward, clean, and welcoming from the moment you arrive.

Inside the shop, it is not just about tools and repairs. It is about clear communication, honest conversations, and a team that values your time.

Over the years, this space has become more than just a workplace for us. It has become a familiar stop for many in the community. We are thankful for the trust you continue to place in us and for being part of what makes this shop feel like home.

There are streets in Tacoma that feel like they were designed to test your car’s limits. Stadium Way? That one’s testing your brakes first.

You might not notice it at first. But every steep descent, every slow roll through downtown—it adds up. Especially if you live here and think you don’t drive much.

Spoiler alert: your brakes would like to disagree.

At Rolf’s Import Auto, we’ve seen what Stadium Way does to rotors. And we’ve heard every version of “I barely drive!” right before we replace a full set of pads.

This isn’t about how often you drive. It’s about where.

If your car’s been squeaking, shaking, or smelling like hot metal after a casual hill cruise, it’s time to check in.

We won’t judge. We just know what those Tacoma streets are up to.

Few vehicles have earned icon status like the Range Rover.

Since its debut in 1970, it has defined what a luxury SUV should be. When it arrived in the US, it quickly became a favorite among drivers who wanted both capability and refinement in one vehicle.

Its clean design, advanced engineering, and strong off-road performance helped it stand out in a growing market. Over the years, Range Rover has remained a symbol of prestige while continuing to push forward with new technology.

At Rolf’s Import Auto, we focus on preserving that legacy by providing expert care tailored specifically to European vehicles like Range Rover.

Mercedes. BMW. Bentley.

These are some of the finest engineered vehicles on the road. When maintained properly, they can be incredibly rewarding to own. In our experience, Mercedes tends to lead in overall reliability, followed closely by BMW, with Bentley not far behind in terms of engineering integrity.

But here is where many buyers get caught off guard.

Luxury does not mean low maintenance.

There is a common belief that BMW outperforms Mercedes in every way. When it comes to AMG, however, performance speaks for itself. The real difference shows up long after the test drive. It shows up in maintenance schedules, repair costs, and the long-term commitment required to own one of these vehicles properly.

The most expensive mistake we see is skipping a pre-purchase inspection. We have seen too many cases where someone fell in love with the badge, bought the car, and only then discovered how much work it truly needed.

Before buying a Mercedes, BMW, or Bentley, ask the question that matters most. What are the realistic maintenance and repair costs that come with owning this vehicle?

An informed decision today can save you thousands tomorrow.

Thinking about buying one? Schedule a pre-buyer inspection before you commit.

You’ve probably seen Mark around. But with so many new faces joining our community, it feels like a good time to reintroduce him.

Mark Simons didn’t grow up chasing the automotive industry. Before stepping into Rolf’s, he spent decades in hospitality, learning what it really means to take care of people. How to listen. How to create a sense of belonging. How to make someone feel at ease the moment they walk through the door.

When he eventually joined his father, Rolf, in the business, he brought that mindset with him. The idea that an auto shop could feel different. More personal. More human. Less about transactions and more about trust.

That philosophy still shapes Rolf’s today, especially as we welcome new customers and continue building for the future.

If you’ve been around for a while, you know Mark. If you’re new here, now you do.
