Excellent service, honest crew and professional work. Very happy with their work on my 1980 VW Pickup. Will be brining it here for all future work. Thanks!

All my bug needed was a distributer and these guys fixed it in one day, when it was taking me months to figure out. There the best and most honest in SB for old aircooled engines.

Thank goodness for the folks at Cory Motors! It's good to have a shop of experienced VW people to go to. They have helped me over the last year to keep my '89 Syncro up and on the road. Much appreciate their knowledgeable service and expertise!

I appreciate the expertise Cory Motors has for vintage VWs and I rely on them to keep my super bug in great shape. They accommodated my last minute service request with 24 turnaround which was awesome. Thank you!

Big thanks and appreciation to Cory Motors. They’ve helped customize my Tacoma and done basic maintenance to keep it running strong. From a full re-gear to routine oil changes. When my son bought his first car, Cory Motors was the first stop for an inspection. Solid, reasonable and reliable shop.

5 stars isn’t enough. Cory is definitely 10 stars or more. Fabulous job on my 71 super beetle convertible.

We've taken all our cars to Cory for many years and have never received anything but great service. They're thoughtful, knowledgeable, flexible, and friendly. We'll never go anywhere else!

Cory Motors is well respected and I sought them to do my PPI for a Land Cruiser. They were really communinative and the staff were great. Cory was my eyes and ears, as I am not a mechanic by training He advised that the truck I was buying had some rust but it was surface rust. I would service with him and hope it's just a switch that needs work and nothing bigger.

I’ve been coming to Cory for several years now. These guys are not only honest, but also truly helpful and friendly. I trust no one else with my vehicle and often throw some special requests at them that they handle with ease. They’re transparent with me when I have questions and I’m also never “surprised” by anything I wasn’t expecting. For an auto service and repair shop, that speaks volumes. I recommend Cory and his shop to anyone that ever asks!

Cory Motors has taken care of all of my family's vehicles for years. They are very professional. They keep us informed of projected costs. They have a nice, spotless shop. They've dealt with problems we've had, big and small. And they have made time for us when we have had an emergency. They are the only mechanics I trust to work on my much-loved 2001 Toyota Tundra. I highly recommend them and without any reservations.

Been in town a few years without a good spot for my Subaru. Asked a trusted friend who recommended Cory. VERY pleased with the recommendation. Cory listened to my car complaints, helped me understand the issues, told me what to expect and how to follow up if needed. Very personable staff. This is now my definite go to place in Santa Barbara. Ive already recommended them to another friend looking for a trusted mechanic.

I've got a 1990 VW Vanagon that began running rough. Thought we needed gas so after filling up... van would not start. I had it towed into Cory's and 2 days later we are on the road again ! These guys know their stuff ! Thank you Cory's for ALWAYS providing fast and courteous service.

I recently brought my 1968 Beetle for service to be revived after sitting for 13 years. Cory did an excellent job getting the car in working order. They are very knowledgeable, thorough and thoughtful about what to do and with advice on what not to do. I highly recommend them.

I’ve been going to Cory Motors for it must be thirty years. I’m always treated like family. In a way I am as we have shared the many ups and downs that life throws at you after thirty years. I know that Mike and his crew know what they are doing and are not afraid to offer other solutions. This is my fifth car I’ve had serviced at Cory Motors. I’ve recommend them to many friends and shall continue too. Long live Cory Motors!

I have been having my '73 Bus and Ghia serviced at Cory Motors for many years. Mike loves VWs and is the best at what he does. It is a pleasure having my cars serviced at Cory Motors! The entire crew, from Stephanie in the front office, to Mike, Cory, and Cale in the garage, I highly recommend Cory Motors to fellow VW owners.

We have been going to Cory Motors for about 30 years and have only positive things to say. We mostly have Toyotas with a Nissan and Mazda thrown in there. You can count on them to give you an honest assessment and they don't pressure you to do anything you don't want to do. They just give you your options and let you decide. In addition, the staff is unfailingly friendly and courteous. Highly recommended.
