I have been a customer for 20 plus years. You wont find a more reputable import auto service center. From the owner Tony and daughter Lizzy to all the technicians, the are the very best! If your European vehicle is out of warranty, Specialty is where to have it serviced. I have even had American brands service here.
I want to give Specialty Motorwerkes my absolute highest recommendation. Tony, Liz and the crew went above and beyond on my Mini Cooper. My car gave them all kinds of issues. Tony would not let me have it back until it was at his high standards. They communicated with me all along the way. They explained exactly what they were doing every step of the process. It is hard to find a mechanic I can trust. They earned it! Great people, take your business to them!
Above excellence. The best customer service for this industry. I highly recommend their work.
The customer service was excellent.. the price was affordable . Job well done. The service was done in a timely manner..
Knowledgeable and friendly customer service from the front office!
By far, the best experience Ive ever had when it comes to service for my German cars. Honest and fair on good service and costs.
Just met tony for the first time. He is building us a motor for our mopar race car. He is the best mopar engine builder in the country. First impression, we picked the right guy. Cant wait.
Best service in town. Honest shop, which there are not many around. Pricing is great and customer service is exceptional. Bringing my cars to Specialty for years.
I have been using their services for last 3 years and have been very satisfied with their work. Best place for European cars.
My first visit to the shop was for a simple oil change. The individuals Ive spoken with on the phone and in front office when receiving and picking up my vehicle were kind. The service was performed in a timely manner and without issues. I plan to return for future services on my vehicle. Ill update my review after those.
Great place very friendly one of the techs looks like Einstein
Great service...
Great family owned and operated shop. Honest, trustworthy and kind people.
They saved our trip from Detroit to Chattanooga. Heading south for a swim event with a kayak on top of my MINI Cooper when we stopped for gas and lunch. Couldnt put the car in park. Called my hometown dealership, they had never heard of the problem, suggested finding a MINI service shop...we found Specialty Motorwerkes, thankfully! A phone call as we continued to drive south and 45 miles later we were at the shop and they were waiting for us. Quick to troubleshoot and fix by unjamming and lubricating the gear shift and we were on our way...at no cost! If I lived here, this would absolutely be my go-to shop. These types of people and shops are the best, hands down.
Awesome service, great prices, kind& friendly staff... Thank you for caring for my car.
Larry SimmonsFinally, this is a shop that uses quality parts and great service! I worked in a garage in my younger days and it was like going back in time. Fair price, quality mechanics that dont add extra work that your car doesnt need.Fixed my Lexus in a day! Other shops needed two days withsub-standard parts and were higher priced. Ill be going back !
Just had my first experience with Specialty Motorwerkes. I will get right to the point. The best experience i have ever had with a mechanic. Incredibly knowledgeable, very honest and my bill exactly what I had asked him to keep it at. Was incredibly thorough with the car and gave me a run down of every issue and advice on which to tackle and which could wait until later. Again - best experience ever with a mechanic.
Reasonable prices a d quality work beats going to the dealership.
Had my BMW 328i towed into Specialty Motorwerks. I had never met a Tony I had just got a reference from another BMW owner. Tony and his family were awesome. They got the work done fast and were very thorough. I believe for the work they did it was very economical.
Honest, good, friendly people. I had an issue with wheels and tires from another shop. Tony was straight with me and pointed me in the right direct. I really appreciate his honesty and helpfulness.
We had trusted our cars to them for 4 years excellence every single time we go ..they remember their clients last names!! Make us feel confident about their knowledge of our cars issues and follow ups! Highly recommended to our friends and family very nice staff they know their business.
Good people
They replaced the battery in our BMW and also registered it too! Everyone was really nice and service was quick too. Their prices are great. When we called to get a quote he said it would be around $180 to $200, it ended up being $190. Will definitely take our BMW back here for any work it needs!
Super service wont take my cars anywhere else
Ive been working with Specialty Motorwerkes for roughly a year now. They were the only shop in town that could work on and understand the type of modifications that needed to be done on my car, a Mazda RX-7 with rotary engine. The mechanic that works on my car is simply amazing. He is extremely knowledgeable, and I could not be happier with the work he has performed so far. I highly recommend Specialty Motorwerkes for your foreign car repair needs.
I have been using Tony an Specialty Motorwerkes for nearly 25 years. They have worked on my L7 BMW, my daughters VW and 5 different S and E model Mercedes. They are the best. The work is superior to any place I had been before. The couple times I had a car that was still under warranty from a dealership, I couldnt wait to get out from under the warranty to take it to Specialty. I cannot say enough about them.
My go to place for all of my vehicle service needs. They are professional, honest, and quick. I never worry when I drop off or pick up my cars there.
Best shop in town!! They always beat the other guys prices and do fantastic work! I recommend them to everyone I know!
Great people and know what theyre doing!!!
Great service and moderately priced
Scheduled me in last minute during the holidays saved me worrying since I had a long drive planned and it had been awhile since I had an oil change. Reasonably priced cheaper than dealership same as I’ve paid in the past with specialized mechanics. Thank you
Honest work done well. Ive always had a good experience here.
Our family only owns Volkswagens, and I try to do as much work as I can on my own. Whenever I come across a problem I cant fix, these are the ONLY people I trust with our cars. They have the best prices and do fantastic work. Ive lived all across the country as active duty military and Ive discovered that 99% of shops who say they specialize in foreign cars just say that to convince you that you should pay more for their service.These guys are one in a million; the only auto repair place I trust. I actually feel good about taking my car in knowing that its going to get done correctly and on budget.
Highly recommend Specialty Motorwerkes to anyone! I was on a trip from NC to IL and was on my way up to Dayton for the night. About 2 hours out (around 5pm) I had issues with my brakes and decided to get it towed to Specialty Motorwerkes. I had called a few minutes before their closing time and spoke with Tony about my cars symptoms and the possible issues. Tony immediately ordered the parts for them to get working on the car the next morning. The quote he provided me over the phone, based on my diagnosis, was far below what anyone else in the area was quoting me. The next morning Tonys team took a look at my car and quickly diagnosed the problem. It turned out the issue was something different than I thought but had the same symptoms. Tony had to order a different part that morning but was still able to get my car fixed by 11am! The quality of both customer service and the work preformed for the price cant be beat in area. If I am ever in Dayton again and need work done on my car, Im brining it straight to Specialty Motorwerkes!
I have been taking my cars to Specialty for many years. My mom took her 73 280 Mercedes there in the 80s. They have always done a really good job for us. In fact, I had to send my 03 E39 in for service today. I highly recommend them.
I took my Mini Cooper here after another local European specialist shop could not diagnose a front end vibration after having the car for a week. Specialty Motorwerkes quickly identified the problem and I was back on the road in no time. The cost was quite reasonable for any vehicle, let alone an import. Im happy to say Ive found my local Mini repair shop!
Took my 09 Mini Cooper in to have a new thermostat housing unit put in. They were amazing answered any concerns I had and where way cheaper than anyplace else I had gotten a quote from. I will be bringing my mini back. You guys rock
Specialty has been the only place that Ive trusted for the past 7 years to work on my cars. They treat my vehicles the way that I would myself, and take extra care to get to the root of a problem rather than simply hanging parts on the cars and sending them back. Highly recommended!
Great job figuring out the issue with 95 Integra engine I put into a 98 Civic! Now runs smooth again! Thanks!
Quality is ALWAYS first! Restoring 1966 Porsche, I didnt think twice about having Tony and his crew do all the mechanical work! They jumped in mid-restoration, when others couldnt or wouldnt perform to my expectations. Spending the time to source parts that are to Porsche original specs. Rebuilding a motor that had been in storage for 30+ years! They will be the shop for all my future resto projects! As long as they dont insane from all of my questions...
I took my BMW F36 in for an oil change and brake fluid service. They got both done in about a hour and charged me less than what a BMW dealership would charge! Also your are supporting a local business versus a corporatized dealership by coming here.
Best place for the money when working with my Audi and Mini. Friendly and helpful staff is a huge plus!
Well if you are looking for someone to change fluids I guess they would be a decent shop to use. However, If you have anything more you need DO NOT use them. I brought my 81 Mercedes SD in for a valve adjustment and ended up scrapping the entire car. The piston Specialty Motor Werkes broke during this minor procedure would have been more expensive than buying another Benz.The owner is a real peach. The month that he had my vehicle the only updates I would get was when I contacted him. He even ducked back into the shop after my third visit and refused to see me. Shoddy work and poor customer service is all you will receive.
Great customer service and efficient!
Very good work. Honest. Respectable prices.
Car running well, fair price, friendly staff
350 miles is not to far to go for the kind of service and technical experience Tony brings to the elephant mopar motor. He stayed late on a friday and put some weekend time in also to help get us back on the road. The green elephant is purring at idle and absolutely roaring in first gear. What a difference when the engine is repaired and tuned by people who know what they are doing. Thanks Tony and specialty motorwerkes
Estimate was the price I paid. Car is working Fine.
Best place to go for your BMW!
Always do a great job!
