Really good service, but often need to make an appointment. But worth the wait if you don’t need same or next day service. Fair pricing.

I have trusted Foreign Car Service with my automotive needs for YEARS! Never disappointed! When Corey quotes you a price in an estimate, that's it - like a handshake. Professional, responsive, cordial, and trustworthy. You can tell by the dozens of cars lined up outside every morning that I am not alone in my admiration for this well run shop! Mike Waschull
