German Imports

Capable and trustworthy! I have a heavily modified 2013 VW GTI. It's a passion project. German Imports has been able to help me fix several problems and do complete kit replacements for some older parts of the car. Along the way, they helped me understand exactly what was being worked on and how they were diagnosing the car's issues. They even helped me secure parts that were difficult to find. Their prices were very reasonable and they were always friendly. I highly recommend this mechanic. Nothing is too difficult for them and they have never tried to squeeze me for money. They have a great team and a great shop, exactly what you want from your mechanic.

I’m absolutely compelled to write this positive review. I first want to acknowledge the owner Steve for his honesty and integrity, in telling me the truth, that I WASN’T in need of auto service. It is rare, to have mechanic charge no fee for a quick diagnostic. Although, I didn’t receive any auto repairs, I must say, I was truly impressed with Steve and his wonderful staff! Being a woman, in need of auto care the whole process can be very intimidating, But they made my experience positive. Their integrity has won me over. If I’m ever in need of auto care, this will be my shop I call.

Honest and fair pricing with good quality work. He stands by his work and has a huge knowledge on early and late model German/European vehicles. He has saved me a lot of money compared to the dealer. Highly recommend for anyone living in the area that needs some maintenance/repair work done.

My son’s 02 A6 went down with a bad axle and I had to have his car towed in for repair to German Imports. I found GI after calling around for a quote and Steve was fair and knowledgeable. I have to say they over delivered with the repair. They were able to fix the car and a small wiring problem Steve found in one day. Overall I am very pleased with the experience and highly recommend German Imports for Audi repair.

I have a 1988 Porsche 944 and Steve got me repaired and was able to diagnose my problem quickly! Not to mention I was able to get a ride home from him when I dropped off my vehicle and he picked me up when my car got repaired! I will return back for any future repairs! Thanks Steve!

The staff was helpful, resourceful and my vehicle was finished in what seems minutes. When other places were behind, Steve and his staff were readily available.

Living in the Highland neighborhood helped solidify the realization to use German Imports located at 2511 Grinstead. I would have paid a million dollars because 1. In the neighborhood and 2. Convenient.

What happened next: Great service, snow storm slowed the process and cost extra.....but Steve (the owner ) contacted me every day. I contacted Enterprise on Bardstown Rd. (Highlands) and they picked me up. I ended up on dropping the rental on Saturday morning and walked from Enterprise to German Imports. (18 min.) Great and inspiring momemt and day!

This is the best shop you'll find in Louisville, Steve and Paul are very knowledgeable... and not just about German cars! They can do pretty much anything. I don't take my Vanagon or my wife's Scion anywhere else. They know what they're doing, they have very fair rates and will break everything down for you. Quick service too.

I broke down on a trip down to Indiana in a classic aircooled VW, and this shop was able to fix it right the first time. It was a lot of work and the price for everything was more than fair. I really appreciate everything these guys did and they treated myself and my car with utmost respect. I would recommend them to anyone who has a German Import.

I have been coming here for 2 years now. Paul and Steve have not only treated me but my car with great care. I highly recommend German Imports. And you can disregard the pill Poppin, bipolar comment from Erica below.

So this review doesn't relate directly to me, however I could not speak any higher of these people.
A couple of nights ago a close friend of mine's tire blew while he was driving on the way to his house, just so happened that it occurred right by your all's business. The next day when he went to go pick it up/deal with the situation these guys dropped what they were doing and went out of their way to run over to him and not only put a spare on for him, but rotate and put air in every other tire; all the while only charging him $5.
This gesture might not seem like much to you all, hence you were simply doing your job, but while you gentlemen were doing this for my friend I was speaking with him the whole time.

This meant the absolute world to him.
His best friend had passed away unexpectedly that night when his tire had blown and it has been honestly shattering him.
Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for letting me hear happiness in my friends voice for a second by simply doing an amazing gesture for a stranger.
Whoever was working Thursday (yesterday) morning, you guys are badass humans.

Good quality and pricing. Steve has taken care of both BMWs that I’ve had through the years. Very friendly and honest business

Honest people. They know what they are doing. After being told by other places I couldn't get my air fixed, not only did they fix it, but they gave neatest warranty. Prices were on the mark too. They didn't overcharge for their services.

Fair prices and quality work. Don’t go to the dealership. Go here for your German auto repair needs. Also, don’t listen to Tracy down there. That Karen doesn’t know what she’s talking about.

Absolutely amazing service, great communication, fair prices for service provided.

Steve and James were great and was a very reasonable price. Will definitely use them again and recommend to all.

Steve and his mechanics did a wonderful job fixing my large oil leak (50 miles per quart of oil) on my 1998 Honda Accord 4 cyl. Another shop told me both the front and rear seals were leaking and the engine would need to be pulled. I told Steve that and he was honest enough to tell me that it was just the front seals leaking and would not need to pull the engine, saving me tons of money.
After the work was done, I had a loud noise from the engine and again was told it was because they did not get the engine timing correct. Again they pulled the timing cover (no Charge) and everything was correct. Come to find out there was a small hole in the exhaust just behind the exhaust manifold.
They work on all car makes and I sincerely recommend them.

Steve maintains all our cars. Always cheerful. Honest. Will tell you what needs to be done and what can wait.

This is my go to shop. Super honest and very fair prices. Just a great all around shop.

Great affordable place to get work done
