Quick diagnosis’s of timing chain needing replaced. 180k it was well overdue. Running better than ever now. I’ve had many services on 2 different vehicles and never been disappointed. Pricing is very fair for the level of service. Better than dealer but less and faster generally. They are busy but that is because people are very loyal to them. Love working with Nathan, Kevin and Bobby.

Aaron and Nathan were great! Their customer service skills were on point and they made me and my wife feel comfortable. I recommend IAS highly!

First let me say this, if you have a German car make sure you bring your a** to International Auto Specialist. (Im so serious). When I walked in I automatically felt like I would be helped the correct way (at least I prayed I would anyway.) My AC was out for two weeks on my Audi A4, and I went to two different mechanics prior1. Neighborhood mechanic (yea I know that was dumb, you dont have to tell me) and 2. An actual shop mechanic that said they fix foreign cars 🙄. To make a long story short, I spent unnecessary money for my car not to get fixed. I finally had enough of this August heat and was suppose to drive to DC this weekend and there was no way I was doing it in this heat, so I found this place on Google, mind you its a Friday and most places on Friday are super booked, but they squeezed me in, found the issue and got my AC back working. I was so thankful I gave them a tip because they deserved it. I highly recommend International Auto Specialist. Im so sorry I forgot the mans name who I was talking to but he educated me more on my car and helped me understand why it should be serviced by the best. I will be back for all my service needs. Thanks again

Dropped my car for a state inspection. They got to it in the time promised and called as soon as it was done. When I picked it up, they had washed it, vacuumed the interior, and sprayed the tires. I always appreciate a business that under promises and over delivers.

I have been using International Auto Specialist since I had my BMWs (2000s). I no longer have those, but now have an Audi and trust them to ensure that it is up to factory standards. Always very informative about what is needed and not pushy. Top notch service.

I’ve had the pleasure of International’s service years back, and I have to say they do excellent work then & now. The owner Bob, he likes to be called is a very nice polite and knowledgeable Gentleman. When it comes to his Craft he’s @ the top of his Business/Game 👍🏽💯🙏🏾🙏🏾

Have had several things done. This time was Radator service, previously had spark plugs replace, oil change. Also motor and transmission mounts replacement. Have always been pleased with the service, professionalism and the cost. Thanks again to Nathan, Aaron and the service team 👏. You have a great team Bob. Thanks Again

They have the nicest people, I love going to get my car inspected there. I just went with my mom to get hers done. He told us the problem, the time it would take to fix, and an honest and reasonable price. 10/10

Great crew to work with. I had used MB dealership prior service but International Auto spoiled me with their on time service and quotes, communication with attention to details and had constructive answers to my concerns. They stayed in contact with me on what they found and predicted possible future service needs . Service and fees were reasonable . Will be using them for all my Mercedes requirements .

Hi Bob - thank you for the opportunity to give some feedback. I am a new customer. I brought my Audi A6 to your shop for repair based on the star rating on Yelp. My car was in the shop for a week for repair ($1600) The car was driven home, and several days later driven 5-6 miles. And it started acting the same way so it was returned to shop 8/20/21). Aaron was kind to drive us home. I cant say that I am impressed with repair, but the office staff was friendly. Hope to get my car back soon.

Have used International Auto Spec for a number of repairs/car maintenance e. They are the most cordial and professional in the car arena. Very convenient location. Just gotta plan for maintenance as these schedules are tight (they have many loyal customers). If they have to order any parts you ga back into the cue and your competed repair/maintenance will be delayed as a result.

Fantastic service. My car has been there 3 times and they are wonderful. They are professional and communicate well with the customer. They call and update you on everything. Very honest and I would highly recommend them.

International Auto is my go-to shop for all services on our 2011 Land Rover LR4. They are fair and honest and their prices are much more reasonable than a dealership. I recommend them for all Land Rover services and repairs.

I have used them several times for my vehicles and each time has been noting but outstanding care and quality!! I am a tough customer being that I need to understand exactly what’s wrong and what I’m paying for. They were very informative and patient. I would refer everyone I know to them. I will 100% choose them first for my vehicles. Thanks Nathan and Mike for always answering ALL of my questions with care!

The professionalism, customer service, and attention to detail the I get form International Auto Specialist is above reproach and that’s why I will continue to do business with them.

Ive had the pleasure of utilizing IAS 2 times for some major auto work. The one thing that I immediately took a liking to is their professionalism. They explain exactly whats going on and give solid advice.I felt like I was being honestly told what was wrong and never did I get a feeling like I was being mislead in any capacity.So far Ive dealt with Nathan and its been a pleasure. No gimmicks and they dont try to tack on things I dont need.I always go with my gut feeling and my experience has been 5*. The other thing that I feel good about is their price.I feel that their prices are fair (I do comparison shop) and all their work is guaranteed. This is my first time having an Audi and I didnt know just how expensive repair work could be in them. I initially took my Audi to the dealership and found out just how expensive repairs can be.This may not be others experience, but IAS did the same work on my car and it cost 1/3 of what the dealer had quoted. The same work and the same warranty and in one case, a repair part had double that of the dealership warranty.I feel Im beginning to ramble and Ill finish with this. Great service, great attitude and great prices. Thats been my experience and I highly recommend IAS for anyone in need of import auto service.

Very professional. They truly care about establishing a relationship with the customer. Nathan is awesome. The car runs better then when it was purchased.

As usual their professionalism and knowledge of the issues came to bear. Customer service has always been great with Nathan and Bobby this time around. The car runs great and I am a happy customer.

Very time and cost efficient. Was able to get in and serviced same day and my car back running good as new. The staff is very friendly, informative, and helpful. I’ll definitely bring my business back to them in the future

We have found our mechanic! Their communication is fantastic. You never feel like you are taking too much of their time. They figured out what was wrong with our car and gave us a detailed report of what should be done. The price was fair and the service was fast. We were considering selling the car but are going to keep it now! It runs like new. You won’t regret taking your car here!

Dont take your vehicle here.Ive been twice. First time was for an inspection. They came out and told me I needed major work and would need to keep my car for days and cost into the thousands. I said no thanks and took my car to Audi Richmond who fixed it in an hour for $60 and thats with no warranty.I gave this place a second chance, just for an oil change because I understand that mistakes happen. Again, they come out and tell me I need major work and will need to keep my car, cost thousands, blah blah. Again, no thanks. Took my car back down to Audi Richmond. Again, fixed for $175.Now, either they are trying to con me or they have no idea how to work on Audis.Dont go here

Nathan Jones is the absolute best. He made sure that my sons BMW was repaired correctly and accurately. I now know that hes got several years left in his vintage vehicle thats as old as him.

It was my first time and they were great. Being that I’m a lady, you can sometimes have a bad experience. But not with International Auto, they were honest and very patient but also knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend them to everyone.

Helpful, honest, reliable. Got my college students car back on the road when I couldnt be there. Went above and beyond.

Service was excellent and very affordable for my Jaguar. I would definitely refer others for foreign car service.

Went in for a 100k mile (Audi A3) service and expected the worst. A few hours later I get a call that the car is done, ready for pick up, and with a plan for the next 20k miles service. Friendly, professional, reasonably priced - all in all a very pleasant experience and I will use IAS exclusively from this point forward. Highly recommend!

I’ve used both locations of International Auto for the last two years. They always do a great job the first time. They have earned my loyalty

Very knowledgeable and efficient! Great to have them here in Fredericksburg. Highly recommended!

Performed a prepurchase inspection and gave honest detail analysis of the vehicle then performed needed maintenance and repairs to Porsche dealer quality without the Porsche tax-Highly recommended

The staff of IAS are amazing mechanics and very friendly and professional people. The owner is an outstanding and trustworthy individual as well. I dont let anyone but IAS work on my vehicles

The customer services was great very attentive to my needs and very professional the place was clean . I had drop my car off the night before . The next morning I received a call before my actual appointment time just to inform me that if I want to also replace my air filter. They had already started on my car . They also provided me with an ride to come in ick up my car after it was repaired. The young man who picked me up from my home was very nice in courtesy. Well respectful in professional for such a young person.He loves his job it really shows he willgo far because of his personality.

The literal best place to take your BMW in Fredericksburg. They treat you like they want to be treated and it shows! Great work!

Great team of folks who are honest, professional and more thorough than the dealer. Only place I will take my LR.

Very professional and knowledgeable staff. No sales pitch, just identify the issue and provide your options. This is my 2nd time here and I will continue using this business because I feel they are honest and definitely knowledgeable of the vehicles they service.

The staff is always very professional and accommodating for last minute folks like me! I would definitely recommend International Auto Specialist.

The waiting area wasnt full of people and the wait time was better than waiting for services to be done at the dealership. The employees are nice and respectful. I would definitely recommend to others.

Had a check engine light issue, oil change and state inspection. Had the brakes done and oil change . The only issue I had was when I arrived home I had to fill the window washer reserve. Normally that should have been done when they topped off the fluids so what else did they miss?

I really like this place. The staff are always friendly. Their work is great and their prices are reasonable. They dont sell tires, but will install tires that you bring or ship to them.

The people at international auto specialist were absolutely awesome. I had a suspected oil leak and they took the time to go over my car with a fine tooth comb to really try to stem where it might be coming from. They were extremely knowledgeable. Coming back soon to have my front brakes replaced by them. Amazing work

Had my Intermediate service for my 2015 Cayman S. Dropped it off the day before. they called with an update during the next day, then picked it up a bit later. No issues at all. Car was also washed, no obnoxious plastic paper floor mats that I just have to throw away either! All the staff and those coming in from the garage, seem to really love their cars and work. Friendly and happy to talk with you for a minute or two. Definitely my go to place instead of driving to Richmond to NoVa to get factory level service. I had used them before on a car I am restoring, and have always been pleased with their work, and attitude, cleanliness of the place etc. the owner is quite a nice guy as well.

This has been the best experience I’ve had with getting my MB s600 repairs completed. IAS provideS a knowledgeable staff and great quality service. They go the extra mile to educate you on your vehicles operation and communicate with you via in-person, text and email. When your car is out of warranty, IAS is the best place to service your German car.

We recently purchased a Sprinter Van for our family. The van needed several repairs. We received many estimates and International Auto not only completed the repairs at the best price but were the most knowledgeable about the actual repairs that the van needed. This small business is made up of a group of dedicated expert mechanics and clearly values establishing relationships with their customers. They place a premium on professionalism and the quality of their work. Overall excellent service!

I am very pleased with the service and quality of the repairs. The staff kept me posted throughout the process and the cost was very fair. I highly recommend them. Thank you!Bob H

I’m on the road a lot and always am aware of lights and sounds in my car. I found the service to be excellent. They were very knowledgeable and very professional as well. I’ll use them for future work. Made me feel that I was driving a safe and secure car after their service. Thank you.

Once again Nathan and Kevin came through for me repairing my Audi. It was a very long and tedious job sand took some time to repair but in the end they got it done. My air bag light came on and the culprit was due to a mouse. The little critter chewed on numerous wires that run along the entire right side of the car. After several attempts to repair it was determined to run all new wires. A big thanks goes out to Nathan who said to contact my car insurance company and what do you know, USAA covered it and the process was painless. Another BIG thanks goes out to Kevin, the technician, who was the one that fixed the problem but it wasn’t an easy one but he got it done. He took pictures of the damage and showed it to the insurance rep which was vital in submitting the claim.These guys are hands down the best and that is why they are the only ones I take my Audi to for any maintenance or repairs.Thanks again guys!!!

International Auto Specialists 2 on Lafayette is my go to shop. Bobby Jr who is now at the downtown location, has always been an amazing front end guy- knowledgeable, kind & helpful. Currently, Mike & Nathan are who I call in to ask questions and are very helpful. Nathan is amazingly knowledgeable of VW’s which I greatly appreciate and he has gone far beyond what I’d expect. Really fantastic service.Kevin is an awesome mechanic that I’ve greatly enjoyed working with and am always happy with his work. This is a local family business with a welcoming feel. As long as I’ve got vehicles they attend to, I’ll be taking them here.Thanks guys! You’re the best!

Amazing Professional Affordable I’m very happy with this establishment! And have recommended to my friends! Thank you!

The team had a genuine hospitality that you don’t see at most auto repair places. They informed me of the services my car would need and walked me through my options. No pressure, just great service.

Scheduling was no qualms at all. Dropped off, picked up, services done, they even washed the car as courtesy, gave recommendation for repairs (no pressure at all), Nathan was very professional. I will be coming back.

International Auto Specialist are very professional and provide great quality work.

Had a coolant light that was coming on sporadically. Mike at IAS worked with us to pressure test the system and get the issue resolved quickly. They were so good that well be bringing our other German car there next week. May have finally found a mechanic in town that really knows how to service VWs.

The staff at International Auto Specialist are nothing short of phenomenal. I have had my Cayman S, and Audi R8 both in for fast, affordable, and professional diagnosis and repair which were backed by a warranty!They have helped me with performing reprogramming after installing after market accessories which has helped in my build of an award winning super car.They value veteran service by offering a military discount which goes a long way in my book, and I’m very pleased I found an honest shop with expert experience right in my back yard to service my high end vehicle’s!

International Auto Specialists are my go-to team for car repair especially Mercedes Benz and Range Rover. Their team has the right tech and training to do the job right the first time. They are courteous and professional. I have confidence in their work and will continue to be a loyal customer.

I own three European cars and would never take them to anyone else! the were half the price of the dealer, they give a two year Warranty on all parts and labor and they are all trained professionals. Mike is the Best and I never get what I dont need!

Very professional and very knowledgeable about my 2004 Jetta GLS 1.8Turbo engine! Great Customer Service!

GREAT, if I need more work on my vehicle Ill be back

I have never ever had a negative experience with International Auto Specialists in fact professionalism stands in line as their mission statement in mind. Great team excellent communication. Reasonable but expert certified mechanics are a rarity and this is what you get when your car enters this facility. Thanks gentleman for the experience ☺️

Awesome import vehicle specialist in Fredericksburg!

So Thankful to have found this Service Shop, walking in for the very 1st time, the Customer Service was Great and Greated with a smile. The waiting area was pleasing and comfortable. I would and have recommended this repair shop to friends with exotic cars.

It took forever to get this repair but not their fault. Parts had to come from Germany. They fixed a problem that we’ve had for years with this car. Expensive, but a good value

My treatment and experience in servicing my car was excellent. they take the time to listen to the customer. and they dont push service on you.and they stand behind their work no hassles. and it was assuring realizing. that I recognized the owner from teenage experience. and to see him still in business today . it shows the knowledge and experience is there Great Service Center.

Always Excellent service. I highly recommend International Auto Specialist.

This is my first time having my Mercedes vehicles serviced at another dealer since my mechanic of 30 years retired. I found Mike, Nathan, and Kevin very professional and honest. They did a thorough review and recommended only the items needed at this time. The establishment is very clean and accommodating. I have think I have found another shop to take care of my Mercedes and me!

My husband and I both drive high end vehicles. At first, I was hesitate to take my vehicle there for service because it wasnt our high end dealership. However, I trusted them with my vehicle and received nothing but professionalism, courtesy, and best of all quality in results. Additionally, their prices are below reasonable compared to the dealership. Basically, you will get high end dealership service for at an extremely affordable price. Ask for Nathan. He is great and extremely knowledge.

As Land Rover owners, I cannot stress enough how extremely lucky we are to have International Auto close by and staffed with Land Rover trained and certified mechanics along with an extremely knowledgeable service staff. My trust in technicians like Kevin and my gratitude of receiving nothing but outstanding customer service from Mike and Nathan can not be overstated. Thanks guys for always making the dreaded Land Rover repair as painless as possible.

Theses guys are the absolute best! I cant begin to express how happy I am to have a place to take my vehicle where I truly know I can trust I will be taken care of. they are always pleasant, do excellent work and HONEST! I have taken my bmw to the princess Anne shop and now another vehicle to the Lafayette shop and as usual had a great experience. thank you for all you do!

International Auto Specialist came highly recommended by a friend of mine who had used them in the past. I was skeptical being that I was bringing in an older model car (1986 Mercedes Benz 560 SL). Right off the bat Nathan and Mike’s professional demeanor put me at ease and make me feel as As though I had selected the right place. They were both very professional and kept me abreast of the status of my vehicle. I would highly recommend this shop to any and all!

Mike and Nathan are great! They are professional and have a friendly demeanor with Good communication. It’s Very important to have good communication when it comes to fixing cars. This seems very rare nowadays.

My wife and I have used International Auto Specialist on numerous occasions, for engine, wheels, computer sensor, and headlight repairs, along with inspections of our cars. The staff is always very professional, and the workmanship is outstanding. They always go above and beyond in their service, and always make us feel like we are part of their family and a valued customer. I highly recommend them for any repairs and maintenance services on your vehicles.

I own a Jaguar XJL. There was some previous work done to the car and which turned out to be a complete mess. Mike and his team immediately took care of it. The suspension was off (right sensor controlled the left and vice verse)and hood sensor light would signal the hood was open while I was driving. Mike and Nathan were very helpful, informative and professional when addressing my needs. The customer service was AWESOME! They kept me abreast of any presenting issues that needed addressed and followed up with my inquiries. I appreciate the service and will return my vehicle for any additional maintenance and/or work in the future. I highly recommend International Auto.Respectfully,Dr. Deidra Walker-Quarterman

I brought my vehicle in because it stalled on me, while I was driving it. I made an appointment for Wednesday so, I drove the vehicle to the shop on Tuesday, afternoon. On Friday, no one had called me so, I called the shop to get an update on diagnosis and was told they could not find out why the vehicle was shutting off during the driving process.I ask if they could test drive the car to find out why it was shutting off and left the car at the shop until Thursday. The shop called on Thursday, and I was told they were not able to duplicate the problem so, I picked it up but on Saturday, the car would not start. I waited to Monday, and called the shop to notify them I was bringing the car back to the shop because now, it would not start.I had the vehicle towed to the shop on Tuesday afternoon and Im waiting to hear back from the shop. Someone should have called me back with an update by now but, I will follow up with the shop because I guess they are busy.I understand the shop is busy but, hoped the customer service would have give me frequent updates since, my first experience was poor. The quality of customer care has not met my expectation. Im not happy with your service. Your shop was recommended to me by another shop, first time customer.

This place is great! We’ve had great experiences with them every time.

Great service! Great people! Other than the Jag dealership in Richmond, they are the only ones I trust with my vehicle.

Trustworthy shop to get your work done. Nathan the shop manager was extremely easy to work with and kept me informed of any changes during the process of my vehicle being worked on. Will definitely go back for any future maintenance/repairs!!!

Great service and very professional

Top notch people and service!

Love this place. They are so attentive and their expertise in my opinion is unmatched.

Very professional team and their waiting area is very clean. Work was done within a very reasonable time. It was my first time using IAS, and it will not be my last.

I had a great experience on my first visit to International Auto Specialist. They repaired the convertible top on my Porsche Boxster. Customer service was exceptional. Communication was great. And the top works great. Ill be back. Recommended.

International Auto has always provided excellent service for me. I trust them and their advice, and do excellent work at a fair price. They are my go-to for service and recommend them often.

I always feel at ease when my car is in the hands of auto specialist. I also appreciate the fact that when I pick up my car it looks like it was detailed. And although they can’t do anything to lower the prices of expensive Mercedes parts, Bobby does a great job of breaking the news of the cost to me easy. Lol.

I cant thank the guys enough for their excellent customer service. They took great care of our car, were great at communicating, and very knowledgeable. Well gladly be back again.

This place of business is all encompassing. The people are the best and their work ethics are of the highest qualify. Would highly recommend. Keep up the great work.

The guys were doing a state inspection and discovered the front brakes needed to be replaced. It was fixed the following day and was below the original quote. Communication throughout the experience was spot-on. Ill be going back to them again.

The crew is honest and dependable. Very down-to-earth and they go above and beyond to help you out. Would definitely recommend!

International Auto Specialists is a one stop shop for all things automotive. The staff makes you feel like family, and puts the care and attention to detail into their work to always ensure a pleasant experience. I have had numerous vehicles serviced at both of the locations, and they will forever have my business.

It’s a little surreal to give a 4 star rating for giving me bad news but my service tech Nathan was very knowledgeable and was able to clearly walk me through the numerous repairs that would be required. Even after deciding not to do the repairs because they were more than the vehicles worth he offered help in finding another vehicle or doing a diagnostic test on a newer car. Would use ‘this shop again just based on customer service alone.

These guys are wonderful, I wouldnt take my car anywhere else!

These people are great. I cant post specifics for fear of dealership retaliation. They are great here. Let me just say I was quoted a $2000 repair for something discovered during routine maintenance. I had my car in here for brakes and they discovered it was something totally different with a cost of $1000. Hard to find car repair businesses you can trust. I trust this business. Nathan here is a great resource!

International auto specialist has gone above and beyond every time I have gone there. The customer service is incredible and their attention to detail is unmatched. I drive all the way from Arlington to get my car serviced here because I have had such great experiences! Couldn’t recommend them more!

Highly recommended!! They will not BS you with pricing like most dealers and other shops! Very honest and will do exactly and only what you need done.

Perfect job and very realistically priced.

Outstanding service. Took my 08 911 c4s in for an oil change and state inspection. They washed it and it was ready on time. They also noticed a rear tail light was loose-and took care of that. Great car folks and I highly recommend.

I had the pleasure of returning to this business for a third time! Each experience has been very satisfactory. The staff had always been extremely friendly and courteous. Mike has always been informative and patient in his explanations of the service, which I for one really appreciate. I trust their judgment and their work. I’ll keep coming back and encourage others to do the same. Thank you for all your help....you too Kevin! 😇

Excellent service very friendly will recommend thanks will see me again .

This is a very professional dedicated organization. Service technicians are always polite, the information provided is timely and thorough. I have yet to be disappointed taking my Jaguar to them for service. My car is over 20 years old and I always leave feeling the service provided as if they are taking care of a brand new car. It’s very difficult to find a auto service shop where you trust the staff and the work being performed. This is a definite 4-5 Star operation.

The team at International Auto Specialist could not have been more accommodating. They were professional and very friendly. I would highly recommend to anyone who has a vehicle that needs repairs or maintenance. We need more businesses like this!

From the time I called to obtain a cost estimate for servicing my Mercedes until I picked up my car, Nathan and Mike were very helpful, pleasant and professional. No repairs were made without my prior approval. Nathan let me know what and how much my warranty covered and what I was responsible for paying. He let me know what was necessary and what I could wait on and for how long. I appreciate their honesty and assistance.

IAS was recommended by Auto parts store. I found their service to be very professional and personal. I would return without hesitation. However, the diagnostics test cost in most places down in Atlanta comes off if they do the repairs, the test is a tool for the mechanics and only to customers if they take it elsewhere. But staff and shop is top notch.

Outstanding service and fair prices. I highly recommend this auto shop!
