Gary and his team were phenomenal! I was calling around to get quotes on some work I needed done on my Audi. Gary answered the phone and asked what was the cheapest offer i received and immediately beat it by $500. He said he already had the parts in stock and told me to bring my car in as soon as I possible. I dropped the car off and the next day I got a call saying it was done but he highly recommended I radiator replacement. He knew money was an issue and found me a used part for much cheaper that had a 1 year warranty and installed it that same day. Gary gave me his personal number and answered all calls and text, keeping me up to date on the repair. My car is running great since the repair and I will 100% be using European import specialist for any work I need done in the future.

Love this shop, always come here when I need something done with my Defender. I trust Luca and Geri for always doing a solid job.

Getting your car repaired can be a stressful experience, and it was for us too. However, Geri’s expertise helped to alleviate our worries right from the first phone call. He maintained excellent communication throughout the entire process, not only repairing the car but also providing a warranty. When we drove the car away, we noticed a significant improvement in its electrical performance. Geri truly worked wonders and restored the car to a pristine, like-new condition, and his prices are very fair!!

I took my bmw x5 to 3 different mechanics and none of them where able to figure out what was causing my truck doors to not respond to key fob or interior lock button causing all my passenger doors to not open. Geri and his team was able to figure it out in 2 hours and also fix it. I’m so happy I ran across this man god sent my woman and family are extremely happy with his work and can’t thank him enough. Great work and affordable. Thank you again Geri and god bless you.

Went in for exhaust work. I had called a few shops around town and every place was completely packed. Decided to give European import performance a call. They told me to bring my car down. Left my car there overnight due to getting there late in the day. Customer service is 100% top notch. I couldn't be any happier with the outcome of my experience. They treat you like family. I showed up to pick up my vehicle and there was a nail in my tire which they fixed as well. Also gave my vehicle a nice and tidy clean bath. I will recommend this place for anyone reading this. Best part about the experience was they did a custom exhaust in my Ford. I'm at a loss for words right now. I will definitely be going back in the future. Thank you guys for all the hard work you did. I appreciate it.

I had a great experience bringing my X3 to Gary's shop. I called around to every shop nearby, and he gave me the best price by far. The mechanic diagnosed my car within an hour of dropping it off, and once parts were ordered my car was fixed very quickly. Very transparent with pricing and communicative throughout the entire process. I highly recommend European Import Specialist and will definitely be back in the future!

Geri and his team are great! He’s quick to communicate and both times I’ve brought in my VW Jetta, he was able to take it in right away and get it back to me within a couple of days. The lot is definitely tight on parking, but don’t let that throw you. What stood out most was how flexible and understanding Geri was when I hit an unexpected financial crunch. That kind of service is rare to find with bigger shops. Highly recommend!

Gary was able to quote me an honest price to fix replace the ac compressor in my car. He did it quickly and effectively. My car is now working perfectly. Thank you for not charging an arm and a leg because you very well could have. I highly recommend this place for your car needs.

Used to be professional and affordable. He now charges as much as the dealership, if not more. Like others mentioned, he keeps sending the wrong invoice so you don’t really know whats done to the car really. UPDATE: Just found out that they never replaced my spark plugs even though they said they did and charged me for it.

I took my daughter’s Audi to Geri after reading his reviews and contacting him on Labor Day, him being one of the only places open that day. Boy of boy am I glad I did. The car needed a bunch of immediate work (oil pump & rear brakes) that I knew about and verified and he was able to do it with no problem, as well as a water pump. I’ll tell you true that I checked around to verify all his prices of each of the 3 jobs the next two days and he was extremely fair with what he was asking, and given the timeframe he could have easily gotten away with asking more if he wanted to. The other thing I appreciated is how much time he took to go over the car in general, how polite and patient he was with my daughter in helping her learn a little about her car, and the follow up he did a week later to make sure we were ok with the work and the car was running perfectly. Highly recommend. Absolutely earned my future business with her Audi and my son’s BMW.

I couldn’t be happier with the service I received! The guys are honest, reliable, and truly goes above and beyond. They explained everything clearly, gave me fair pricing, and had my car running like new in no time. It’s rare to find someone you can trust with your vehicle, but I know I’m in great hands here. Highly recommend to anyone looking for top-notch work and excellent customer service!

Geri and his team are amazing! He listened carefully to my brake issues on my Audi SQ5, showed me exactly where the problem was, and then called with a detailed explanation of each of my repairs needed, even others he found that I was not aware of before they became a major issue. I appreciate his clear communication and feel he is very fair with his pricing. They are my go to place for all my needs, even my oil changes. I would highly recommend!

I called this morning to get information about an alignment for my Aston Martin vantage. To which Garry Let me know that their shop did not do so, he gave me a referral for a different shop that could do The job, To which he followed up with telling me even though it might be a little bit more expensive to have it done by Aston Martin, he thought that was the best route. He was very knowledgeable and familiar with my vehicle. Instead of trying to sell me crap that I didn’t need or telling me to bring the car in for an inspection or accept the alignment job even though they don’t really do it, he was incredibly honest and transparent with me and truly gave me advice that benefited him 0% and only was to help and benefit me. Even tho giving me honest advice wasn’t making him money. This is truly one of those moments that restores your faith in humanity. Most other mechanic shops would hear “ I have and Aston Martin” and think “payday!!!”. Instead, he gave me God honest advice and what he thought was best for me and my car. I have no doubt in my mind that if you are taking your car here to have it serviced, these guys will not only take care of you, but will shoot you straight. I had to leave them a five star review because let’s be honest not a lot of people in the world today would have done what they did. He even told me to take down his personal number so that way if I have any questions about the car, I could shoot him a text or phone call because he’s familiar with it. Kudos to this shop and I will absolutely be recommending them in anyway I can! Great job!!!

I took my BMW X5M to several other repair shops and none of them had any idea what was wrong with my car. But Geri figured it out right away, charged a very reasonable price, and had my car up and running in just one day. He’s definitely the guy to go to. Highly recommended!

Geri is simply amazing! He helped me out of a jam. I have a 2025 Porsche 911 Carrera T, brand new from factory with 5500 miles. I was visiting from Jacksonville last weekend. On the drive over on Saturday, my A/C goes out half way through the trip. I arrive in Tampa 6 pm. He’s the only one open and he’s willing to have a look at the car. He tells me, if he can fix it, it will be done on Sunday by noon the latest (as I have to return home on Sunday). He finds that the compressor is low on oil and there is low refrigerant; fixes the problem. He’s honest, knowledgeable, friendly and very helpful. Saved me 3.5hr ride back home in 90+ degree weather. I owe him big time. Would highly recommend!
