Andras has been the best mechanic I’ve had the pleasure of working with. When I was explaining the issues I was having (mostly using lots of hand gestures and sounds 🤣) he was still able to figure out what was wrong with my car before he even checked it. Despite the horrible explanations on my part he has always been patient and understanding, he really hears you out and is honest about everything. Especially being a girl who doesn’t really know much about cars it’s very easy for a shop to take advantage, but he’s been extremely helpful at all times and very communicative. He is a very hard working guy and you can see he’s very genuine. I would recommend anyone I know to him.

I met Andrish in 2004 when he was a mechanic at a shop on Hercules Ave. Needless to say 21 years later he is our go to mechanic! He is honest and reliable and stands behind all his work. You will not find anyone better!

Andras diagnosed the problem with my 2010 Mazda's air conditioner: The compressor was shot because a belt broke. I asked if I could buy the part at a used parts store to save money, and he gave me a card with an online parts supplier which, he said, would charge much less. I printed the parts page, and he advised me on which brand and the components to order. I was able to have it shipped to his shop. He installed it while I waited, and the AC is running smoothly now. A pleasant experience from a competent, honest auto repair business in Clearwater, Florida.

Andras is a very knowledgeable mechanic, honest and charges fair prices. Very happy to have him as our mechanic. It is hard to find a trustworthy and good mechanic. He is definitely both, highly recommended. Such a great feeling that we don’t have to worry every time what will our mechanic going to scam us this time, or if he really did the job that he said we needed at all. His shop tells everything about him, it’s organized, clean and everything is in order. No mess no garbage no clutter it’s like going into a small dealership.

I had a great experience with these guys. Andre was knowledgeable, knew what would be involved in my repair immediately just from my description over the phone and he was correct! Got the thermostat valve and sensor replaced on my Buick 3 weeks ago. Cost less than half what a GM dealership quoted me. Vehicle has been running great since, gas mileage is almost back to normal (apparently low gas mileage is one of the symptoms of a bad thermostat). Service was quick too which I wasn't expecting since independent shops like these have to order the parts in. Very happy. Will come back here for repairs in future.

I had an excellent experience at A Choice Automotive, from start to finish after coming highly recommended by someone who stopped by when my car broke down. I needed emergency work completed on my bmw and the manager/staff immediately communicated about what I needed done and what to expect regarding completion and the owner updated promptly each step. Pricing was very reasonable and my car was fixed correctly, the first time with no hassle. I will recommend this shop to everyone and return if I need work done in the future being an honest shop without gouging or scams. Thank you A Choice Automotive!!!

Andras is great. He diagnosed my A/C issue in less than 20 minutes and replaced my fan in just a few hours, on a busy Saturday too. Reliable, trustworthy mechanic.

In my experience, one of the most knowledgeable shops for BMW's in this area. Andras is the owner and is very willing to have you understand what needs to be done on your broken BMW. He's really good at what he does.

Best service and the most honest mechanic you can have. I had some damage done to my raptor and not only did A Choice Automotive fix it for a fair price but I was surprised in a good way about what happened next. I asked the owner if he could install some flood lights on the truck to spruce it up and surprisingly, not only could he do it for a fair price, he had some great ideas for other additions, such as a snorkel which helps with fuel efficency and the flooding we sometimes get in Florida. He knew I like to drive my truck off-road so he recommended some spare gas cans in case of an emergency which have already come in handy when my friends car broke down from being out of gas. The list of services he was able to provide blew me away. Decals, vinyl wraps, paint jobs, accessories, tire racks, painted calipers and on and on. When A Choice Automotive was finished with my truck, it not only added tremendous resale value to my truck but it also gave me a vehicle that I felt proud to drive. It gave the truck its own distinct personality. All from the brilliant mind of this legendary mechanic. If you ever need any work done to a vehicle, there is no one else you should consider taking it to. A+ rating 10/10 best mechanic around.

This business is truly amazing. The service, the honesty, and the efficiency is remarkable. Andres, the owner is very knowledgeable. He explain everything straight forward, no circling around. The prices are way more economical than any dealer out there, and the experience is more close and personal. I highly recommend this shop.

Wow. What a relief to find an honest, cool, smart, intuitive mechanic and just down the street, to help keep my 2006 Kia Sorrento on the road awhile longer! I love that Andras listens and that he really, really enjoys figuring out problems. A Choice Automotive is a total plus for this neighborhood, and I hope everyone will support Andras, his beautiful family, and technicians for many years to come!

Truly the best mechanic around. I’ve been taking my cars to Andres for years and have referred countless friends and family to him. He gives honest advice, looks out for his customers like family, and never wastes your time or money. Highly recommended!

A Choice Augomotive, Andras, has saved me time and money every time i have gone to him. He has talked me out of more expensive services (that i was sure my car needed) and offered a better alternative that benefited my car and wallet. I refer to him whenever possible, ESPECIALLY if it’s a young, inexperienced car owner that might get taken advantage of elsewhere. I know the people i send to him will be treated fairly, and will know more about how to care for their cars when they leave. Everyone with a car should know a mechanic like this! It’s like having screw-up insurance. (I screw it up, he fixes it…)
