I don't know why everyone rates this shop so low. They were great to me and cheaper than I expected. First off, my ac went out and not knowing any good mechanics in the area, I took my car to the dealer. Bad move, they quoted me 1100 dollars to replace a high pressure line and said it would take until tuesday to get the part in. So I picked up my car and did some research in the area. Import Performance had great google reviews so I gave them a call and set up an appointment. After I set it up I checked yelp. I was kind of kicking myself for not checking yelp first but I figured I would just wing it and I am glad that I did. When I showed up there were three Porsches there so I knew it couldn't be as bad of a shop as the yelp reviewers maid it out to be. The shop was extremely clean and the staff was friendly and helpful so I dropped my car off and awaited the diagnosis. About an hour and a half later, I got a call from the shop. They said it was just an o ring that was bad, and that parts and labor was going to be about 170 bucks and returned same day so I said go for it. Also they have a 125 for 90$ coupon so i got 35 dollars off my service as well. I can't complain about saving money. But long story short I picked up my car and the ac is blowing cold as ever. This is a great shop and don't be fooled by a few bad yelp reviews. Check the google reviews if you don't trust me. read more

I took my 2001 Isuzu Trooper in last year for a check engine light. It ran fine other than that. After taking in and keeping it for a few days. I was told it need a few things done..like a tune up, new spark plugs, air filter, oxygen sensors, fuel filters and new belts. The works. I figured they where the experts and know how to keep it running as it's best. Since I love the vehicle and wanted to keep it running well. Well after getting it back. It did not run any better in fact the engine rattled and shimmed to the point my dash board was making noises. I took it back to them and the manager told me I need to get new motor mounts. Which I knew had to be false. It did not do that before they worked on it. Second opinion found out it was misfiring and could have been corrected if they cared enough to fix it. Never trust them again!!! read more

Import Performance is the best place to take your import in Wilmington. I've been going there for years and I've never had anything but good experiences and great customer service. They honest and straightforward when something's wrong, and always do a fantastic job with regular maintenance. They are always very friendly and their waiting room is full of amenities (including wifi!). As long as I drive an import, I will always bring my car here. read more

Recently discovered the Yelp App so I wanted to share my experiences with Import Performance. I love my Mercedes and Acuras although there has always been a fear or maintaince associated with them, right? I have never experienced that while going to IP. They have maintained my vehicles since new and I love there work. True professionals and the owner has a lifetime knowledge and experience working on nothing but imports. I have much rather enjoyed taking my vehicles to Import over the dealership. They have a loyal staff that do great work. If you or looking for a change give them a try. 5 stars read more

Excellent service while traveling on vacation; 800+ miles from home and our car acted up. Service Manager Derek and the Team at Import Performance got the parts needed and had us back on the road the next day. Derek worked with us on options and best solution to meet the needs of the car and our budget. Many thanks to Import Performance on a job well done; Bill read more

Decided to get my oil changed, A/C worked on, etc. here rather than the dealership for the first time to save a little $. Scheduling an appointment was easy, the people were friendly, they had my car done an hour earlier than expected so all was good there. Also if you are going to take your car in this is a good place to wait. The waiting room is like your living room with cushy oversized chairs, a flatscreen tv, and even a desk area with computer and free internet. A little depressed that the work I had done was still expensive but then again there is no telling how much it would have cost at the dealer. They specialize in European and Asian cars btw. read more

I've been bringing my Audi to Import Performance for the past 2 years, for everything from oil changes to repairs to modifications that were beyond my capability. Each time, I was provided a complete estimate for repairs/service, and the price is always the same as the estimate- no surprises. All work performed perfectly, no surpises. Mechanics do a great job, as does Talin, the owner. I rarely have a problem getting an appointment. Highly recommend Import Performance. read more

I've used them for several major repairs and some more minor repairs. The work has always been good for the most part, but in hindsight I discovered I was ripped-off on parts. They charged me $120 to replace my MAF sensor, which I later discovered that they used a $10-$15 chinese replacement part, and takes all of 5 minutes to replace. It's worth noting that I had taken the car in for other repairs and the MAF was an add-on, which I now believe wasn't bad in the first place having since seen how the car behaves when it really does go bad. Also paid around $500 for a repair that takes an hour and a $60 part. They always give you an estimate for upcoming maintenance needs that is ridiculous, they mark the parts way up. They told me I needed new plugs without even noticing that I had just replaced them myself. I think this is pretty much par for the course for most shops though, but they do run a clean shop, and they do good work. read more

Like Max K, I have had only good experiences with Import Performance. Setting up an appointment is easy as long as you give them enough time. They do the work promptly and well. I've been taking my used Mini to them for about four years now; it continues to run fine and, while they have done some more work than just oil changes, the occasional belt wears out after 9 years (it is an '08). I am not technically competent to judge or question their work (hence the 4 stars rather than 5); but I am very satisfied because they have kept my car running well at a low cost. I waited for the car to be done. Clean waiting area, free coffee, free wi-fi, clean bathroom. (Wellington Avenue is a not-prominent street, so the map below is a help.) read more

I have a 2011 Saab 9-5. There were multiple issues happening with the car and I was concerned about the costs to address the issues. Import Performance got the necessary parts and made the repairs very quickly. I was pleasantly surprised by the explanation of the issues and the fair price to correct them. I will bring my car back for any maintenance needs in the future. read more

Import Performance has been providing service on my vehicle since March 2013. On October 18th, I had my Mercedes ML350 in your shop for an inspection and oil change. Additionally, I asked that you check it over because I was headed out of town and something didn't sound right. I was told that the front lower ball joints needed to be replaced and the suspension sway bar links or bushings also needed to be replaced and I would also need tires soon. You are correct, I will eventually need tires. Before spending $1200 on this work, I consulted with three other garages. None found anything wrong with the suspension. Additionally, the Mercedes Dealer doesn't even keep these parts in stock because they have never had to replace them on this model. Eventually, the problem was identified but unfortunately for me it was far too late. There was a gasket leak and the transfer case had no fluid, only sludge and metal shavings. My receipt from Import Performance indicates that fluid levels were checked and it's my understanding that if it's easily accessible (and it is), it is normal to check the transfer case fluid level when changing the oil. I may find it difficult to offer any positive feedback in regard to your business. read more

Stay as far away from this place as you can get. A wolf in sheep's clothing, clean waiting area where in the back they screw up your vehicle and charge you multiples of what even your import dealer would. The one other customer they had there while i was there was also being shaken down and mad. And they top it off with surly and arrogant customer service. Without a doubt the worst Customer experience of my long life. read more

I have mixed feelings about my experience. The lobby was comfortable, the customer service was good. I made an apointment for an oil change,came in on time, they took my car back, two hours later told me it was finished. I asked them to replace a bulb I was having issues getting to, so I'm sure that took a little time, found out it was something to do with the wiring, the mechanic didn't pursue the issue any further per my request, I can't imagine it taking 2 hours. I've done the oil on this vehicle before and it took me all of 15 minutes. (I drive a 99 mercedes and really hate doing the change, hence the reason I brought it in) I'm giving the benefit of the doubt though, maybe there's a variable I'm missing. But if that was the case there wasn't any communication with me during that two hour wait, except for near the end when I was asked if I would like an oil conditioner. At the end I was givin a break down of 1400 dollars worth of work that was recommended. I felt like some of the recommendation were legit, but most seemed bogus. A handful of flushes, etc. If you have a high end, specialized vehicle, I'm sure these guys offer something others dont. But I have been to much better mechanics in the area. Just my opinion read more

Had my brake pads changed at import performance afterwards I had a high pitch squeal coming from my front driver wheel. Brought it back in because of the noise and was told it could be the rotors need replacing too. Went ahead and replaced the rotors but immediately after leaving the high screech started back up. Brought the car back in to have then take a look they looked it over and told me everything looked fine and sent me on my way. The sound immediately returned. I gave up and took the car to the dealer who immediately found the problem: import performance put two inner pads on the wheel instead of an inner and an outter. How could they miss such a basic problem that they caused?!? What a joke of a business and a waste of money. Will not be going back or recommending to friends. read more
