After our new toy arrived the fun lasted only for few seconds as the engine didnt want to run, only few seconds. Brought the car Ray Boats and Ray immediately found the root cause. The fuel tank was super, super rusty and there was soooo much rust inside (car was sitting for many years a previous owner) and the entire fuels system got messed up. We need now a new tank, but Ray Boats cleaned the entire fuel lines, fuel pump and carburetor and now our Baby runs like a Swiss clock. Check out the video. Ford T-Bucket 1923. Great Job, Great Service, super fast, cost effective... Best boat-car repair and maintenance shop. Highly recommended.
Ray has always come thru for me. I have used his services for about 10 years. Ive compared prices on repairs and services and hes been always the most reasonable and honest..Very few around like him.
Ray’s expertise is highly evident. From the minute he pulls up in his truck until he finishes the job you know that he is focused and extremely knowledgeable. He explains each part of the maintenance process while video recording his work. He clearly shows you the new parts that are being put into your engines as well as the old parts he is removing and explains the wear and tear and proper maintenance moving forward.Anyone looking for engine or boat repair in South Florida should definitely look up Ray.
They fit us in with there very busy schedule. Got us back on the water in no time. They were very honest and professional.
Changed out my motor and he did it fast, quality work, and on time and budget. Had another issue and he resolved it for free.Hard to find honest reliable service people and I will always come back.He will be the only person to ever work on my boat....
Ray is all about serving the customer. He is wicked smart. Has been servicing my fleet of vehicles for years. No nonsense, and you wont find this value in automobile care anywhere in the Orlando area. He runs his business with honesty and integrity. Qualities that are quickly disappearing in the service industry. Want it fixed right the first? Save a pile of money and go see Ray. Youll be glad you found him.
Excellent service, on time, professional. Knowledgeable technician, honest. Fair prices. Will continue to use. Highly recommended.
Service was professional . Owner took great care in tuning up my Yamaha with all genuine parts. Best service and quality hands down!
This guy is a true shyster, he gave me the little old lady story on a car I bought fromHim,The only reason I use themIs because he was a
Ray took my boat in on short notice. Brought boat to Ray on Monday and was ready by Thursday same week. I was back on the water for the weekend. Fix lower unit leak on the first day there. My old boat mechanic repeatedly told me he could not find leak. Ray installed new swivel rod holders and knew steering system. Took the time with me to walk through entire boat. He sent pictures to me throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Ray for all your boat needs.
We are customers for life because of Ray. He’s friendly and professional. The best part about Ray is his honesty. We know nothing about boats/engines, and he always offers us the most economical solution for our needs. Instead of taking advantage, he also educates us on how to keep the boat running well instead of using our naïveté to upsell or push services not needed.
Ray’s boat service is a pro! They have been in operation for 33 years and you will experience knowledgeable honest service! His timely response starts with your phone call! MP/Winter Park, FL
I dont think there are enough characters for me to explain how great Rays service is. He takes the time to talk to you educate you. Im so impressed with him and his people. He has worked wonders with my boat and honestly my cars and my boat will only be worked by him and his staff. Do your self a favor and give Rays your bussiness.
Ray and his team are professional, knowledgeable and honest. Ive been to other boat repair shops but I have to say that this is my go to now for boat concerns. Highly recommend.
Ray took care of my lower unit and made it new again. I appreciate the follow up and quick turn around.
Ray did a great job fixing my lower unit seals and water pump, used genuine Yamaha parts and took pictures and videos throughout the process.

Ray is awesome. Very honest guy and helped me out a lot! Highly recommend.
Great people, professional people. great service and good quality. would definitely recommend!!
Ive had boats most of my life and finding a good mechanic that you can trust can be difficult. Ray and his team were very professional, service oriented, and ready to help with anything. When telling Ray about my engine issues, he didnt make any assumptions, asked me what I had already checked, diagnosed this issue section by section, and hit the nail on the head...He sent pics every step of the way during the repair, checked and double checked his work, and my boat runs great now....giving my family and I a sense of security on the water we havent had for awhile. Thanks Ray!
Ray has become a friend! He is truly knowledgeable about all kinds of vehicles, always takes care of the problem, very reasonably priced and honors his word! Ray will treat you like family! I encourage you to support his business! Let him help you with your car! You will be happy you did! 😃
I have a Yamaha jet boat that was having some fuel issues. Took it to Rays he diagnosed it accurately the first time and now it runs great.Custom service and timeliness was great, I recommend Rays for any issues you may have. His 30 years experience proved valuable.
Ray is my go-to guy! Diagnosed my boat within the same day and the next day I was picking up my boat ready to go. Ray and his team are very nice and knowledgeable. For all of the work that was completed, it was very fairly priced and now I know who to call if I ever need anything. Thanks Ray!
Called them up and got my boat in that day. Had it diagnosed the next day and back in the water all fixed the day after that. Service was outstanding, speed of maintenance was fantastic, and the price was very reasonable for marine repair. I will be making myself a regular at Ray’s Boats for tune ups, patch-ups, and anything I need for my boat. Super friendly and fast. He knows what he’s doing and doesn’t drain the wallet.
Great customer service, very fair prices - will be back for all my boating needs. Thank you.
Ray and his team are by far one of the best in the area. He is highly involved in every repair and takes customer service to the next level. He goes by the book and is extremely honest and transparent about his work. Quality and professionalism at its finest.
I contacted Ray about doing an engine survey on a boat I was looking to buy. He prompt and did a great job on my survey. Being out of state and non being able to see the boat I was nervous, but after my experience with Ray, I felt much better.
Excellent body work on my BMW 430i
Honestly the most wonderful experience! I got my very first car here and they made it super easy and worked very well to help fit my budget. I’m super impressed with my car and the condition it is really clean and runs perfectly. Before I took my car home Ray actually ensured to overlook everything t ensure things were running smoothly. I truly appreciate the experience and how personal and kind everyone is! Definitely recommend Rays auto
I brought in my 21ft center console boat for a repair and tune up last week. Rey was really knowledgeable of boats and knocked out the repair extremely fast. I needed him to do some improvements to my transom which had a crack in it and do a quick tune up on my 150 Yamaha motor. He was really professional and I would definitely come back again! I highly recommend Rey’s shop to anyone looking for boat repairs!
Ive been taking my boat to Ray for the last 3 years.Very professional in what he does. Very knowledgeable and very fair with the prices of the work he does. Will not take my boat anywhere else as long as hes open. Thanks Ray for all you do to keep us afloat. I highly recommend you go to him for all your boat needs.Roland
I bought my Ford Explorer from here. I was kind of skeptical at first because it was a 2004 and it was 2015 at the time but the truck was in great condition and had fairly low miles. I still have the truck 5 years later with over 200,000 miles. Thank you Ray i will be back next month to hopefully purchase a new vehicle
Very professional. Honest fair pricing.
**Quality Boats and Service**. Ray is a true professional. I come from a boating family and he has taken care of several boat repairs upgrades and all types of modifications for all of us. He is the only one I trust to work on my Quad Mercury 400 racing engines. I recommend him and his team unconditionally.
Ray was Great and honest with the problem, I had on my Honda Bf 130 found the problem and fix it. Now the engine purrs like a kitten.I am very happy with my experience with Ray.I will definitely recommend Ray to anyone who wants a honest opinion....
I recommend this place 💯 I leave my boat where ray he do amazing job quality. good price very. Professional and family very responsible honestly they take the time for explaining I am very happy 😊
Ray is honest and an excellent mechanic. He tells you exactly what is wrong and what needs to be done to fix it. He never tries to sell you on something you don’t need.
Every time I go there and everyone I send there gets the same quality service. This is the only place I will let my wife take the car to. I know she won’t leave with a new radiator, brakes etc.... very honest.
Boat was in and out within 24 hours. Problem was diagnosed and fixed!
Ray is the best ...honest man quality work and great pricing the whole staff was very kind and professional quality place cant say enough good things trust him with all your boating and car needs
Absolutely will not go anywhere elseRay and his team are the best.Every step of the way he sent pictures and videoHe did a complete rebuild of the motor and lower unit.No hidden fees no b.s.the work was done right the first timeAnd it was done in a weekMy family has not missed a weekend on the waterThanks again ray
Outstanding job. Only place I take my boat. Great communication
They fix cars, boats, trucks and now sell preowned vehicles...give it a try...
Ray always have the best price & fast service! This is always my to go price for both Boat & Auto repair and the best part is not having to worry about getting ripped off like most shops around 17-92.
Ray went above and beyond for me when my power pole gave out on me days before a fishing tournament and squeezed me in to his schedule to take a look at it I will definitely be bringing my boat here from now on!
Ray is the best very trust worthy great prices he has earned my business for many years to come
You have earned a lifetime customer!!! I got a same day turn around on a full service for my triple Yamaha 300. Impressive work, Thanks Ray!
Ray is an amazingly humble man all the while providing a great experience, excellent work done and a personal touch in any way he can. Highly recommend!!!!!!!!
Life saver!!! My husband called Ray friday morning due to his Mercury outboards would not start and had a family fishing trip for Saturday. Ray had him out the door on the same day!Thanks!
We were very happy to find Ray’s Automotive, we were searching for a nice, reliable car for our son for Christmas. They worked with us on finding a good car for him that he would like and were so great with meeting us after hours and so friendly and honest. Ray and Tonya are a dream to work with. Our purchasing process was very smooth and easy. I highly recommend them and will definitely be back for future vehicle purchases.
I’ve been going to Ray’s Automotive for several years now, if you are looking for a Master Mechanic Ray is the man you want to see, he is our go to guy for our Boat, Car’s and Jetski’s, he is very Honest, Knowledgeable and proficient in his work, he’s very reasonable, and his work is top notch, what we love is that Ray treats his customers like family friends and always makes us feel welcomed, we have found our life long mechanic, he does it all, you will not be disappointed.
After surviving two car wrecks and dreading searching for a new car, I was so pleasantly surprised by the wonderful, professional experience at Rays!I was greeted by Ray himself and immediately placed with a super rep Michael who streamlined my experience and actually made my purchase a breeze!The place is clean and the people are genuine, professional, and sweet. I drove out in a fantastic new car within a few short hours and I would recommend Rays to anyone including my own family. Bravo!!!
I had never trusted a car mechanic until I met Ray. He provides great honest service, at a reasonable price. Ray has taken care of all the cars I have owned, old and new and each time I leave his place, I know the problem has been taken care of. It is truly a rarity these days to find a competent and honest mechanic. I highly recommend Ray.
Wow what a great experience I had ! I had a electrical problem on my Grady white and one shop charged an arm and a leg the other one couldn’t figure out what the problem was, but ray had a great price and had me out the next day... I am thankful for him and his boat repair services..
Rays Auto is honestly the best full service auto and body shop in town. First of all, he is honest and trustworthy. He tells you the truth and he is very upfront. I have had both mechanic and auto body shop work by him. He does an excellent, thorough job. I have been a customer for several years and will only go to Rays Auto for all my cars needs. I highly and strongly recommend him to everyone. Trust me Ive been to several mechanics, he is the only one i trust and the only one I go to.
Ray and his team are experienced and offers quality service that is hard to find.
I never been around the most friendliest professional dealership ever in my life, always very friendly, bubbly and over enthusiasm. Great employee and I cant wait to do business with them again. I would recommend this place to anyone. Very good and honest people.
Amazing service, good quality. Definitely recommend.
Ray helped with my Key West and Yamaha and did an amazing job. Couldn’t be happier
I have been taking my boats to Ray for several years now and received excellent work on my motors as well as some occasional fiberglass work the boat has been delivered on time and he has very been very detailed and explaining what needs to be done, The fiberglass work has been exceptional and he has gone above and beyond what I expected.
It is difficult to Find a mechanic that has both integrity and skill set, if you have a mechanic that is missing either one of these, they can cause you financial heart ache. Ray has both qualities. I have 5 vehicle within my family and have been going to Ray’s for past two years and it has been great.
Ray was fantastic on helping me out with my car selection and also with my sisters purchase. She looks great driving her beautiful black BMW that Ray got for her, he was very knowledgeable, professional and sensitive to my sisters needs. Thats why I would continue doing business with him, my sister will and I recommend Rays Automotive not only to my friends but my family too, thanks Ray and will see you soon.
Ray worked on my 2015 Porsche Macan. Very satisfied with the repair!
Amazing costumer service. Super informative. Professional environment. The cars are of amazing quality and great prices. Will definitely be back for my wifes next car
Best service, honest and reasonable prices .
Great dealership that offers cars in good condition at an affordable price. They make the process of buying a car very easy. Also, their staff is very helpful. I strongly recommend this place.
Ray is polite and professional..will do business with him in the future...
I have been to this place twice and both times I bought vehicles. Ray and his staff were very courteous and helpful. Both times we were looking for a particular car and Ray came through! I would not hesitate to recommend Rays to friends.
Very happy with my new car!! I received every help you can possibly think. Also they review in details the contract and get approved right away. I would truly recommend this dealership to all of my friends and family.
A great company to do business with. Quality cars and reasonable prices. The customer service is the best I have ever had. Will buy there again
Great experience all around. I had been looking for a reliable used car for my son for several months. Happy I came across this dealership. Carlos and Ray were very honest and professional.
This is the best place to go for a car and mechanic work. The best experience ever and awesome people. I recommend this place ti the whole world. Thank you Ray and family!
Purchased my third car from Rays dealership. As a customer who highly values service, I couldnt be happier with the great service I have received from Ray and his team. Because of the fact that I have been a loyal customer for a few years now, Ray went out of his way to help me on my last deal, and thanks to that my daughter drives a good car to college now; heres a family business that actually values the importance of the word family.
I had a great experience at this dealership. Salesman was very attentive and helpful guiding me to the type of car that fits my lifestyle. The inventory is easy to browse and the options are endless. I would highly recommend Rays Automotive!!
This guy is a god with boats, he left my contender looking right, I highly recommend
Buying a car is always stressful but so far I have had a pretty good experience with this business. The employees are very polite and have went out of their way to accommodate all my needs and help in any way possible.. Overall great service!!
Very very dishonest place!!! Give one price and you sign for one price and then they stick you with as ridiculous bill that you never heard about during the sale!!! Good luck to you if you go here...It doesnt matter how much you want to dress it up the fact remains that you never spoke to us about any interest charges or showed us any paperwork of any finance charges. But whats done is done I just hope nobody else is dumb enough to fall for that.
Amazing place to get a car . I got a great truck for a good price and they were so nice even stayed open late so we could finish all the paper work .
Ive taken my cars (and my kids) to Rays for almost 10-years. From simple oil changes to complex problems (he completed a BMW engine replacement in less than a week), Ray and his team have been fantastic to work with. His prices are consistently lower than other mechanics (dramatically lower than dealership prices) and beyond that, hes a decent guy.
Rude customer service, take your boat elsewhere..
Been using Rays Automotive mechanic services over 18 years ago, when he was a mobile mechanic. Ray has always provided honest, trustworthy, and excellent auto service. Have referred many friends, who have also been very pleased with his work. I highly recommend his business.
I love this place I had a great experience buying my new vehicle personnel were very polite clean everything in order is not like any other dealer I been to. Very professional accurate these are people I thank because of them my family and I have have a great vehicle and out of my experience in this place will defently recommend all my friends and family members love this place❤️💯💯
I have dealt with Rays Automotive for many many years. The service is extremely good and they are very efficent in every way. each and every time that I have dealt with ray and his group have always been very satisfied. The prices are great and the service is over and beyond expectation. They are the most honest and workable people that I have ever had the opportunity to know. After years of having car repairs at Rays, I finally bought a car from there. It was THE very best experience that I have ever had in buying an automobile. I just want to thank Ray and his entire team for being the most honest relable Automotive shop that I have ever dealt with. I can honestly say that each and every time has been a pleasure. Thanks guys for all that you have done for me!!!!!
This is the best place to get all your car needs in one place. Affordable prices, great selection of cars and the best mechanics in town! Always a great experience..highly recommended!
Ray is friendly and appears to be somewhat good at doing what he does however I found the entire process to be extremely slow. I often felt as though I was not being informed of what was taking place and simply just told to wait and that hed be with me soon. I came on a Saturday, found a car, provided the necessary information, and was told a deal was made and I was approved. Being that it was Saturday and he was about to close he said we should wait until the following Monday as he might possibly be able to work a better deal. He assured me he would call me and keep me updated so that when I came back down on Monday (I live in a different city) I could basically sign and drive. That did not happen. Not only did he not call to keep me informed but when I called to ask about what was happening he offered little info and made empty promises to call me back at certain times but never did. Upon arriving to Longwood on Monday I waited for a long time in the office as apparently no work had been done earlier in the day to provide the financing bank with my information that Ray already had so they could complete verification. Im still waiting as I sit here typing. I feel he needs to improve his customer service and efficiency practices. Im not sure I would recommend them as a first choice to anyone else because customer service is very important to me especially in this situation. Maybe as a last resort as he will get you in a car more than likely it will just take forever.
Very amazing experience for buying a first car, they really do accept any credit. must come and do business with them. check out mike hell give you an amazing deal.
Great customer service! My 05 Nissan Altima had a oil leak on the rear main seal, they took me under the vehicle and showed me where was the fault. Very knowledgeable, fast returned and very good price and was really honest!
We felt totally confident in Ray. Went out of his way to help us.
Best place in town, friendly honest and Great quality cars.. I love my car.. Contact Ray hell give u great deals
I love Joe, he is the best salesman in the world. The owner Ray is a pretty nice guy as well. The have the best deals on all their vehs. Stop by and see them, You wont be disappointed!!
I lovevthe good honest service that i get each and every time at Rays Automotive. Ive been going there for quite a few years. I recently bought a vehicle there and i love it... What a great experience in car shopping. I just cant say enough good things about their place. I will continue to go there forever!
Friendly and helpful, helped me to deal with a lost title 5 years after I bought the car.
Ray and his staff are very helpful.
Went to purchase a car cash. The car I was interested in has a funny noise in the engine. As we were very interested in it we asked for issue to be repaired. Ray said he needed me to buy it first in order for him to fix it. Keep in mind he sells cars as is. I was not buying a vehicle with problems. I have small children and need a reliable, safe car. Had I not insisted he would have sold it to me or anyone else knowing there was an issue. After hours of waiting he agreed to fix it. The noise was gone and the car seemed to be working well. I purchased it and 10 minutes after driving it off the lot.. the service tire monitor system warning came on. Go figure. While closing the deal I was told by staff that although the car was sold as is, they would fix any issue with the car. To quote the employee, we wont do you like that. I thought I had made a good choice and was dealing with good people. When the warning came on Ray said to bring it back the following day. We spent hours at their shop waiting only to be told that autozone kept delivering the wrong part... talk about giving us the run around. We left that day without a solution. We were told we would be called when the part was ready. No such call came. Instead, when we would call for a status, the staff became increasingly upset until Ray called, audibly irritated about our inquiries. They had is come in after the weekend and we were told the issue was fixed. Sure enough.. the next day the light came on again. Im a school teacher and was back at work at this point so I brought the car after work. I was sent off, told it was too late and I need to bring it earlier. On Saturday I got my two kids dressed and we were on our way to bring the car at 10 am at which point Ray said it was too late and to take the car elsewhere because he wasnt fixing it. When we called to express how distraught we were about the unprofessionalism and what we felt was a scam as we were told any issue with the car would be fixed just to get us to take it off the lot.. the lady on the other end was apologetic and wanted to fix the situation so she scheduled us an appointment to bring the car. Later that night, Ray personally called me, my husband, and my mother who has done business with him for 20 years that we better not bring that car to him and he didnt want to hear from us.Luckily the issues with the car were still covered by the dealer under an extended warranty and are being fixed at no cost to me. At the dealer I was treated with respect and not given the run around. Not to say that every used car dealer is like Ray but the treatment was very different. I do not recommend anyone do business with Ray as he takes trade ins or cars out of auctions with issues he does not want to fix. He will just take a car with problems, wash it and hide the issues until you take it off his lot and then youre on you own. Shady and dishonest.
Its a small little place Rays very friendly and helpful actually didnt go there for a car but we went there to pick up a Penske truck on the second day we decided to pick up a trailer we were running late he decided to wait for us not only that but he actually helped put the trailer on which he didnt have to do other than that the service was great and Ray was very courteous
One of the best places I have gone to. Very friendly and great people skills. I would recommend them to every one .
This place is so out of order. Very disorganized! The secretary is very rude! Cuts you off when your talking! I sat there for 1 hour just to get my rental was the first time I came last week, when the secretry was beyond rude! When I went it I noticed a car I liked and I was introduced to the WORST, DISRESPECTFUL, UNPROFESSIONAL GUY ON THE PLANET. he got mad when I told him I would think about it, he then reply and says he is an independent broker and if I dont want any of these cars he can get me another one in Orlando. I will never come back here and advise everyone to rethink it! Very slow, unprofessional and just the worst experience. Beware! They lie!
I went to Rays for a Penske rental and he was very understanding and kind. Definitely will be going back if my car ever needs fixing.
I highly recommend Rays Automotive for any mechanic problems or even to buy their cars because of the great service they provide.He is also great at marine repair. He is a fiberglass specialist and provides paint services to any type of boats.
