I have been taking my 2 of my BMW there for over 5 years. They have kept them in top running shape. The staff and service they provide is like no other. They know you by name and are honest about what needs to be done to your car and what can wait. Their prices are way under the dealership cost and they have excellent technicians. I would recommend Bullet Performance to any BMW owner!

Been taking my BMW's to Bullet Performance for over 10 years now. Their work is always consistent with quality, price and service is 2nd to none. In the past 10 years they have never tried to pressure me into getting unwanted service or try to take advantage of me. This is the biggest reason I continue to take my BMW's to Bullet Performance, they are 100% honest!

The staff at Bullet Performance is amazing. They will always provide expert knowledge on what's best for your car. A few times, I've asked about things I "thought" would be good (based on research), and they advised against it because it would not be beneficial to the longevity of my car! Applied knowledge at its finest.

This place was recommended to me by an acquaintance after the dealership wanted $638 for basic service on my 2021 Mini Cooper with ~6000 miles. Bullet Performance determined that all it needed was an oil change and a routine vehicle inspection. Grand total $148 and an hour wait. Let's just say I'll be servicing my car here from now on.

I have taken our car to Bullet multiple times and I have to say that working with Nate is like no other repair shop I have ever been to. I feel like he treats each customer like a friend. He does what he says he will, and I appreciate his honesty that he has shown over and over. We drive an hour to come here because they are worth it.

After successfully sheering a bolt off my rear diff reinforcement, Mickey and the boys at Bullet were able to quickly get me back on the road. The guys here are top notch and trustworthy. Will be bringing my car back.

been coming here for 10+ years from my e46 m3, to 335i, to 535i. Always great work and honest. They have even looked at dealer invoices for me and told me they could do the work for less, as well as tell me what was actually needed and what could wait. Would recommend this shop for ANYONE with a bmw and no service package/warranty from dealer. Would never go anywhere else. -Shane

A big thank you to all who work here, especially Terry! I keep a car for a long time and bought another BMW because I know these guys will take good care of me when my current warranty ends.

Bullet Team, Just wanted to drop you all a quick note about the engine and drivetrain rebuild you completed on my E39 M5 a few weeks ago. The M5 is running beautifully. The combination of all of your work came into focus to result in near perfection. I made a few observations over the past month: Jimmy Schuck and Nate Knight – You guys coordinate things beautifully around there. You know when to get people in and how to set delivery timelines and expectations – so your technical team can make them happy. That is not an easy balance to hit. You are car guys, so you understand your customers and you provide extra details to make customers feel special. For example, most people wouldn’t agree to photo document customer jobs - as you did for me. Thank you! Adam Koch – Your militant attention to detail is overwhelmingly evident in every corner of that engine, engine compartment and drivetrain. Clean but militant? Yes, cleaning the inside of the transmission bell housing qualifies for ocd levels of militant detail. You are sick and I am grateful. At shutdown, it smells like a new engine when I open the hood. Aint no dust, dirt, rodents, oil, road grime to cook up – anywhere. I am so glad you were on my project! Thank you! Manny Ixtacuy - It’s worth mentioning that you didn’t just “hose off the car”. Outside and inside was spotless. You deep cleaned the floor mats! The car was so clean that if I hadn’t been in the shop bugging you guys every week and witnessing it first hand – I never would have believed the complete engine and drivetrain were ripped out of it! Thank you! Mickey Miller – I’m not sure what you did. Just kidding! Giving these guys the implements they need and the freedom to work without micro managing them, all the while providing guidance and support when necessary - was impressive to watch. You made it look easy and I know it aint. Ultimately, with all those moving pieces, you delivered what you said you’d deliver, when you said you’d deliver it for the price you said it would cost. Been doing this long? :-) Thank you! Thanks again Bullet! I highly recommend your team! Eric Loiacano

Charged me $2300 to reconnect a wire and charge me for multiple days of labor and made me order a whole new part for a car that I did not need claiming they’ve never seen this problem before yet, this is what they do, they are supposed to be car professionals yet seemed so confused about a wire being disconnected and having to charge me thousands of dollars for their lack of knowledge. If I was the owner I would eat the cost instead of passing it to the customer seeing it was their inability to properly diagnose and fix. Now unfortunately I won’t be going back here and will be passing along the word of mouth that they would rather get paid than have a satisfied customer that would do repeat business and refer new customers. Would have been much better off just taking to the dealership

They did an amazing job fixing an issue with my e46 M3. The quality was great, and customer service was on point. Definitely recommend for anyone with a BMW especially e46s. They've done hundreds and hundreds of e46s so they'll be able to help.

These guys are legit. By far the best in the game. Would never even contemplate taking my BMW to another service center. Take your time, build a relationship with these guys, you won’t regret it. Customer for life.

I am so grateful for Bullet Performance. Nate and the rest of the team were very kind and helpful. They fixed my car promptly and at a price thousands less than the dealer. I am very pleased with the service provided and I will definitely be coming back for my car’s future needs. I highly recommend this shop!

Exceptional service! 10 Stars! My classic E34 snapped a differential flange bolt, and I luckily was stranded right out front of Bullet Performance! The service advisor Nathan helped immediately. The owner and entire crew helped push the car in and found the issue with the left side differential flange bolts. Technician Aaron reinstalled and used loctite on the bolt threads. And then torqued to spec. Cleaned up the loose grease. Ready to rock. Exceptional customer service and professionalism. Now, the E34 540 6 speed is back in action. :) Very grateful for this team at Bullet Peformance. 100%
