These guys always do excellent, timely and quality work. We have been getting our cars serviced here for years. They have contracts with other car dealerships so they have no need to overcharge you on their prices. They are honest in their assessments of the work you need on your car. Parts they don't have, they will try their best to order it and have it shipped to them. All of the guys here have great attitudes as well, as if they really just enjoy what they do. read more

Unexpectedly needed a car battery replaced this morning. I called Imports Performance and spoke to Mark. He and the entire staff were extremely professionally and accommodating. From the time that we arrived until the time we left lasted about 30-minutes tops. I've passed by this business several times over the years and never knew it was here. Will definitely keep them in mind. read more

I was sent there by Hertz (Torrance) a minor repair. They were WONDERFUL! After getting jacked around by another dealership (Hertz in Inglewood) for 2 MONTHS, these folks had the repair done in 3 hours! HIGHLY PROFESSIONAL! Honest, clean shop and just on the ball! Got my business! read more

I have been going here for 20 years. Speak to Ross (the owner) or Mark (the manager). They do fantastic work at very, very reasonable prices. They are HONEST and always work with you and give you options. I have sent people there who got high quotes elsewhere or had bad experiences and everyone I have sent was amazed at their honesty and the quality of the work they do. GUARANTEED - THE BEST MECHANIC SHOP AROUND! Lloyd B. read more

I had bought a car at Hertz Car Sales and my battery died. Hertz sent me to import Performance. They quickly diagnosed the issue, changed the battery and had me on my way in less than 20 minutes. I was very impressed with their work, their professionalism and that they were super nice! read more

My transmission light came on so I contacted the Hertz (where I bought the car from) and asked for recommendations. I also wanted the oil checked and mentioned that my car play was not working. The manager called Imports, explained my 3 issues and made an appointment for me on Saturday at 10. I showed up and they had a blank look on their faces. I explained that I had an appointment and the 3 issues and also explained that the manager from Hertz called and talked to Leon. The mechanic did a diagnostic on the car and then talked to Mark (imports mgr) . Mark called Hertz to get the story. I am sitting there watching the interactions. I stood up to help explain things and he waved for me to sit down. Then I asked about the radio and he laughed at me stating that they did not do radios. I said that the Hertz manager wasn't sure if Imports could help me, but they would know of a place I could take it to. Mark laughed at me again. nothing was explained to me about the transmission light. I left feeling very degraded and frustrating. read more

This is the bestest place you could ever take your car to! First, you couldn't find a more friendly & knowledgeable team of mechanics! Not only that, they also give you the fairest of prices! It truly is money well-spent! A special shoutout to Russ (the gracious owner!) & Mark. You know your car will be in good hands if you take it there! If you love your car, (like I do! ha ha!) you wouldn't think twice of where to take it for real quick service too! Can't say enough of this great place!!! There aren't enough superlatives in the dictionary. Thank You, Russ, Mark, & Gabe! read more

This is a top notch auto shop!!! Although it's a little tough to find, it's well worth the effort. The shop is clean, professional, and expedient.

My mother introduced me to this location over 5 years ago. I have to say the service is always consistently professional and with a smile. I have much faith and confidence in all the work performed...and the price quoted has never made me feel taken advantage of. My daughter also now brings her car as well. I'd been told to look at how a mechanic keeps his shop ( clean & organized or messy) if you want to have an idea of his overall business performance and Import holds true to their name!!!! read more

As a Local, if you want to know the good places. This is a good place. The best I've found so far. Most important- They don't over charge. They don't try to sell you something that you don't need. They are done quickly. They do the job right. I asked the Hertz Rental Car manager who he uses. There's a tip for you. One mechanic walked over to my car ...listened to it and knew exactly what was wrong. These guys know their stuff. read more

Since i moved to the south bay I've been coming to Imports Performance (over 12 years) Ross, Mark and the rest of the mechanics are wonderful. Extremely professional and honest. As a women in can be pretty intimidating to walk into a mechanic's shop. I've never felt more respected and fairly treated at a mechanic's shop than here. Ross and his staff are honest and NEVER try to upsell you anything that you do not need. I've referred at least 5 people in the past who now are so grateful that i told them about this place. I'll never go anywhere else read more

I had purchased a certified used car from Hertz. This place does the certification. Within the first few weeks of driving the car I noticed it was making a clicking sound, it was the rack and pinion steering. I came to an agreement with Hertz we would pay half the bill. Performance Import said the bill would be $700 and have the car overnight. We agreed we would use a rebuilt part from AutoZone, they got a used part from a junkyard. The computer in my car would not accept the use part. In the end the bill was $1,200. I had to pay $500 from my own pocket. read more

This place is great, came here because my father is a Hertz company employee and they deal with many of their cars. Highly recommend it, fast service and the owners are always nice. The mechanics are great too and an oil change for $40 isn't bad. Wish they were open on Sundays, but that's just a suggestion. read more

I drive a 2008 BMW 5 Series. I had an electrical problem with my vehicle and took it to the BMW Dealership in Long Beach. They wanted to charge me almost 60 percent more than what I ended up paying. I live in Orange County and it was worth the time driving to get my car repaired. A friend of mine referred this auto repair place. I'm passing it on! read more

Skilled, honest, professional AAA approved mechanics. Worth the drive from wherever in LA county. Not only do they do a terrific job fixing the car, they explain what's going on so you're not in the dark. Hertz uses Imports Performance. Dealers sometimes consult with them. I've been going to this shop for more than 15 years and have referred many people. All of them were more than satisfied. They offer rides and loaner cars. Class. read more

This shop truly is the best in the business. These guys are very friendly and professional which is rare to find nowadays, not to mention the fair prices.

I have nothing but great things to say about Ross and imports performance. My mother who is in her 80's starting going there 15 years ago, and when I returned to the area, she told me about the place. Work is done quickly, honestly, and correctly. My whole family now goes there including college age children. We could not be more pleased. They really know what they are doing and do not over charge. Worth the drive. Luckily I live only 5 miles away. We are truly treated like family. read more
