My first pick for my German car... For those looking for folks who are honest and take pride in their craft; look no further. There aren't enough characters allowable in this review for me to extend how grateful and pleased I am to be a customer here. My man Bobby will get you all setup, and Kevin the lead mechanic there is gonna tell you exactly what you need to get back on the road... haha. In all honestly, you'll find great service and fair rates here. Definitely worth the queue here; these guys take their time, but get the job done right (the first time)!
Many thanks guys; see you in a few thousand miles.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Tom F.Stafford, VA421821May 5, 2023Updated review
This is the ONLY place I will take my Audi for service. Top notch customer service and very knowledgeable technicians. There are no hidden fees and they never try to sell you services that are not needed. They are always up front and honest. Bob, Bobby, Nathaniel and Kevin are my go to guys. Thanks for always being there. I highly recommend them for your car service needs, you will not be disappointed.

Bobby is awesome and helps you out the best he can and is very straight forward. Kevin who is their top technician goes out of his way to make sure you understand what is going on with your car. These cars are so technologically advanced it is impossible to figure out what is wrong with them but having a Kevin and his group there make it stress free. Now I am not saying they are cheap because if you own a car such as the one I have you have to expect to pay some money and these guys beat dealership prices by a long way and they never try to oversell you on things. It is great to know I have these guys in my area and I highly recommend them.

Great service and pricing. They have been my choice for my BMW for over 2 years. You need to make an appointment but I've always got my car back when they said it would be done.

They know what they are doing and charge a fair price for their labor. They make their money on their cut on parts but that's how the car business works, no surprise. However, the customer service is great. They are approachable and answer all your questions. Very friends and knowledgeable. This is why I take my car here.

Didn't go to them for service because they recommended I go to a Toyota specialist! Great referral, even though they didn't profit from it. Obviously SUPER honest people....a valuable trait for auto mechanics!!!!

Very impressed with high level of professionalism, honesty, and quality of work from Will and his team. The performance analysis was thorough and I really appreciated the time they took to explain and educate us on what was going on with our vehicle. They took pride in their workmanship and as proven subject matter experts, it was evident that they would not compromise their reputation to make a buck! Our BMW X5 35i is driving great! We've finally found a mechanic we can trust! - Thanks, Will!

These guys really know what they are doing. They specialize in foreign cars and are always real busy. They have all of the computer systems to reset any code or key readers. I would bring my car to them any day of the week instead of taking the long drive up north or down south. Additionally, they are much cheaper then the dealership. Be prepared to leave your car for a day or two (depending on the service) or extensive work required. Like I said they have many cars being serviced. BMW maintenance is real expensive so be prepared to spend some cash.

Our second car only gets driven a few thousand miles a year. Every fall I bring it in to International Auto Specialists for the annual safety inspection and oil change. Will and his team treat my car with great respect and they don't try to gouge their customers. If there's any issues they explain and advise. I love dealing with honest car mechanics. You can trust International Auto Specialists.

I have taken my A6 to this shop for the 4 years I've lived in Fredericksburg. They specialize in European cars and do great work. They are friendly and straight up with you. I had an expensive control arm/suspension problem and they worked with me on getting a plan going with the timing of the work since it would be a lot of money to spend all at once. They also are great at squeezing you into their schedule even though they stay pretty busy and very good at explaining what's going on with the vehicle. Bob, Bobby, Will, Kevin, everyone there are real pros. Don't go to the dealership.
