CG Motorsports are consummate professionals in my opinion. They know their BMWs and other German cars. I have worked with them for a few years and they have always treated my BMWs well. I am a customer for life.

I'm going to tell you about my experience here and everyone can make your own conclusions. Last year I saw CG Motorsports selling a car on Craigslist. A Google search and Yelp search about them showed numerous positive reviews on both platforms. It looked like they had a good reputation. I went for a test drive, they provided the CarProof and all work they did on the vehicle. CG Motorsports even gave me an everything warranty for 1 month, discounts on work for 6 months and other discounts on work for 1 year. Everything seemed pretty good. Now this was a higher mileage vehicle (a little over

These guys are the real deal. Friendly, skillful and produce quality repairs. They are really emulating that meticulous care that the Germans have precedented. I have entrusted them with my very complicated BMW 750il and BMW 550i. On all occasions, the work was very high quality and the diagnosis very accurate. I trust these guys without hesitation.
Loses 1 star, only because they are a tad expensive. I understand that, because the quality is there. However, there are other quality after market German car repair shops that are almost as good, but much more cost effective. I usually have 3 BMW

Not just premiums service for BMWs, but off-makes as well. Took my jeep in and they brought it back to life with it having not been driven for 3 years. Excellent customer service, detailed reports were explained in detail with sound recommendations. They had my best interest and safety in mind, while being very fair on pricing. I highly recommend seeing them if customer service, integrity and peace of mind is what you expect from your mechanic!

I was looking for a good shop that could help with my daughter's first (used) car, and boy did I ever find the right place. This shop is professional, immaculate, and looks like a dream place to work for an auto mechanic. Even better, the personal attention they give is something I have never come across in this industry before: they are friendly and take the time explain the work that they did on the car. I appreciate that they don't work on weekends as I got the definite impression that the employees are treated with the same honesty and respect as their customers. They took the time

Chris- Thanks again for your attention to detail, professionalism, and honesty. Truly appreciated. I had used a similar service from another shop, and the difference in quality of service is unremarkable.
