Performance Automotive Inc

It's great to find a trustworthy shop. My bill was exactly what I was quoted, Curt was extremely helpful and straightforward. From the day I called to the day it was finished was less than a week. They do fantastic work my car didn't have a bunch of grease and oil on the interior they even put my seat back where I had it before. It may not seem like much but it's the little things that will keep me as a consistent customer. I really appreciate curts honesty and being straightforward and not trying to sell me a bunch of stuff I didn't need. I would highly recommend this shop to anyone. They have them selves a customer for life. Thank you guys

I’ve been bringing my vehicles here for the better part of 15 years (2 VW Jettas, Audi A7). Their service is always excellent and priced fairly. It feels better when the mechanic gets to know your vehicle, and can fix things that are wrong. If something doesn’t need to be repaired, they won’t repair it where at some other places (dealerships included), you’re going to get the replacement whether you need it or not. They’re good people over here and that’s the reason the shop is still here, and I’ll continue to get my Germans serviced here.

I have to say these guys were straight forward and professional from start to finish. I entrusted them with my 2008 BMW 135i when getting heavy maintenances done and couldn't ask for a better place to receive quality and honest work done. Highly recommended for any BMW enthusiast needing quality work done away from the dealer.

I'm very picky who I let work on my car, but I was recommended to this shop by some fellow German Car Enthusiast and I'm so happy I went. Curt is amazing, straightforward, and fast! I'll be bringing my car here for now on for any future service intervals.

Curt and the team are amazing, almost like car repair magicians... I had my car towed there for a radiator repair which was estimated to be completed after the holiday break. Curt called that day, letting me know the car was ready for pick up (5 days early, that's right... 5 days early). This will be my new home for auto repairs, and highly recommended. Hats off to you Curt and the team for an amazing experience!

Very reasonable prices! I got a carbon cleaning on my GTI and couldn't be happier with the results.

These guys are always straightforward and easy to work with. Good price too. It's the only shop in the city I use.

I took my vehicle over to this shop to get it look at due to my vehicle vibrating excessively. Curt was very friendly and professional as he was determining my concerns for my vehicle. He promptly took the vehicle to get it looked at. Nate, their head mechanic, determine that my vehicle had misfiring cylinders and was able to fix the issue.

My whole experience at this establishment was very smooth and stress free. I highly recommend this shop to get your vehicle issue resolved.

Thanks Performance Automotive!

Very friendly and helpful. I felt like I was in safe hands. I was shopping for a used car and took it here to be inspected before I made a purchase. They gave me very honest and helpful advice. As I was leaving he gave me some advice on what type of car to look for. This was above and beyond what I expect.

The experience at Performance has always been great. They don't just "throw parts" at a problem and take extra time to both understand what's bringing you in and telling you what they see and provide solutions.

Took my Z4 to these guy based off a friend's recommendation and it was worth the time. No lie its hard to go to a shop for the first time without concern about being taking for a ride. Pun intended lol. Curtis took care of me. I crossed the recommendation with some mechanic buddies and the costs were spot on. I was excpecting a decent bill since it was a BMW but to my surprise it was very reasonable. I also asked if they could have everything done by a specific day and they delivered it a day early. Very happy with my experience and 100% will be taking it back for future work. Great job Performance Automotive. You just earned yourself repeat business.

My air conditioning was blowing hot, but a recharge from Valvoline didn't fix the problem. They suspected something else was wrong with my ac system and suggested I visit a full service shop for an inspection. I called Performance Automotive based on the other positive reviews I saw online, and I'm so grateful I did. Everyone I spoke with was professional and polite. The technician, Kurt, informed me my car type is prone to a certain malfunction, and ordered a new relay for me right there over the phone, just in case, without even seeing my car. I was able to bring my car in the same afternoon, and what do you know! It was the relay! Took the gentleman 30 minutes to fix it, and for a very reasonable price. I really am so thankful to Kurt and to the team at Performance Automotive. If I ever need something done again, I'll be calling these guys first. I hope you give them a chance, too.

I brought in my 2011 Lexus IS F to get a clucking checked out and PAI was able to pin point the noise in a very reasonable amount of time, and even showed me first hand what was causing it. Nothing but professionalism, kindness and respect from these guys. They are amazing at what they do, I would not hesitate to bring my car here for any kind of work, especially for a performance oriented vehicle such as my F, even though I live clear on the other side of Columbus. Waiting room was very comfortable and homey, plus their personable personality made it that much better. Their shop is also very clean. As someone who works in the industry, I can comfortably say this is an above and beyond shop with very respectable prices.

I highly recommend this business. I'm new in town. My car needed a B3 service. I researched different shops and saw the positive reviews for this company. I scheduled an appointment and took my car in. They looked it over, gave me a quote, I accepted the quote and they serviced my car. This was the first time I got the feeling that the business actually cared about the job they were doing for me. I highly recommend them, especially for single ladies who don't have a spouse to handle their car maintenance.

Family owned and trustworthy shop. They will not charge you for things you do not need, even tell you if they are not needed. Prices are right and the time for turn around is excellent.

They fixed my car last minute and did above and beyond. We're from out of town and broke down and they made us a priority and were very communicative. Price wasn't bad and we got it in and out in the same day.

Performance Auto is a shop that specializes in European and Japanese vehicles. They have been in business since 1982. They are highly skilled, honest and go the extra mile to make sure your vehicle is repaired properly. They do everything from oil changes to engine changes and everything in between. Chris, Curt and Nate are great guys if you're in the market for a shop to have your European or Japanese auto worked on I would highly recommend Performance Auto.

Needed a vehicle serviced for some front end work. Couldn’t believe how quickly they were able to diagnose, get parts, and fix the problems I was having. Super fast turnaround and great price!

I am from the Massillon Canton area and frequently I am sent to Columbus to work at my job. I have a 2008 Mini Cooper and went to leave work on a Friday with the hopes of driving back home to Canton for the weekend when my check engine light came on and my car stalled. I took it to a firestone and they ran a diagnostic check on it and told me there was nothing they could do so I called the BMW dealership and they told me to come in on Monday and it would probably be very expensive. So on a whim I called Performance Automotive and spoke with Curt. He told me that they were going to be closing within the hour but if I could get there he and his technician would do what they could to see about getting my car up and running properly. So I rushed my car straight in and without any weight at all they took my car into the garage and figured out that it was just low on oil. They added oil and ran to diagnostic checks on it and also gave it a test drive. Within 45 minutes my car was running like it always has been and I will be able to return home to see my family now. Curt and his team were fantastic and they have definitely gained a customer for life. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

I had an issue with my previous car before I ever went to them and called them on a whim for advice. They spoke on the phone with me for 20 min and didn't even try to get me in for an appt. I ended up taking my car back there and have been going to them ever since. They never tell me I need something when I don't and were able to fix a problem with my tires that two other places (one being a dealership) could not fix right. It's family owned and they are good people. I even brought my new car when I traded my old one in. Trustworthy mechanics! Thanks for your help always!
