    Benz
    Benz and BMW
    Benz & BMW
    BMW - Benz

    If i have understood your question correctly, you want to target 2 keywords in the same niche? I would first reccomend you target the 2 keywords individually. So target BMW and then target Benz. Once you are ranking well for these keywords then move on to targetting them both together!

    You will want to use a variety of link anchor texts. It helps for some of those links to be the exact phrase you want to target. So as SilkySmooth stated, target the keywords separately. So if you want to target both blue bmw and blue benz, I would get separate links for each phrase. By using something like 'blue bmw & benz' it will still help you, but probably not as much. Using the exact phrase will help rankings on MSN & Yahoo as well. When I get links I like to target at least 5 - 10 keyword phrases at a time for each page. That also keeps your links looking natural. If you get too many links with the same anchor text it looks spammy and could result in a penalty.

    i think, you can't use 2 different keywords in 1 anchor text. u can use search term as a anchor. if u want optimize your site for 2 keywords, then u would make links with both single keywords.
