About Us

A neighborhood shop
that actually cares

When Tony De Simone opened his doors here in Rochester, he had a simple philosophy: treat every customer's car like it was his own. Thirty-plus years later, that's still exactly what you'll get when you pull into our bay.

We specialize in European and Japanese imports — BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Volkswagen, Toyota, Honda, Lexus, and more. These vehicles demand a particular kind of attention, and we've spent decades learning exactly what they need.

No pressure sales. No inflated estimates. Just clear communication about what your car needs now and what can wait, so you can make informed decisions without the hassle.

What We Do

Complete care for your
import vehicle

From routine maintenance to complex diagnostics, we handle it all with the expertise your import deserves.

Engine Diagnostics

State-of-the-art diagnostic equipment to pinpoint issues accurately. We read the codes, interpret the findings, and explain exactly what needs attention — and what doesn't.

Brake Service

Complete brake inspections, pad and rotor replacement, fluid flushes, and caliper service. Your safety is non-negotiable, and we treat every brake job with that seriousness.

Transmission Care

From fluid changes to complete rebuilds, our transmission specialists understand the nuances of import automatics, manuals, and CVTs. We'll give you an honest assessment every time.

Electrical Systems

Modern imports are computers on wheels. Our electrical diagnostics cover alternators, starters, battery systems, wiring issues, and complex electronic modules.

Pre-Purchase Inspections

Thinking about buying a used import? We'll give it a thorough evaluation before you do — suspension, engine, transmission, electronics, and more. Know what you're getting into.

Cooling & A/C

Radiator service, water pumps, thermostat replacements, and complete air conditioning repair. Keep your import comfortable and properly cooled in every season.

Suspension & Steering

Struts, shocks, control arms, tie rods, power steering — we restore the precise handling your import was designed for. No more vague steering or unnecessary tire wear.

Scheduled Maintenance

Oil changes, filter replacements, fluid services, and manufacturer-recommended maintenance schedules. We follow your owner's manual, not a one-size-fits-all template.

Why Choose Us

Not just another
auto shop

There are plenty of places to get your car fixed. Here's why Rochester keeps bringing their imports to us.

Specialized Import Expertise

Decades of focused experience with European and Japanese vehicles means we understand what makes them tick — and what makes them fail.

Transparent Communication

We explain what's wrong, why it matters, and what your options are — in plain language. You'll never feel like we're talking over your head.

Honest Assessments

If your car doesn't need something, we'll tell you. We'd rather lose a quick dollar than earn your distrust over a repair you didn't need.

Quality Parts & Warranty

We use quality parts — OEM when appropriate, premium aftermarket when it makes sense. Every repair comes with our warranty for your peace of mind.
