Outstanding in every way, this is a racer's haven and a restorer's dream shop. Tim hires dedicated mechanics who are friendly and capable handling new tech and old, and it is an amazingly open and spiffy clean shop. These guys love cars and it shows. Want to know your engine's torque curve? They've got a dyno. Have a problem that requires some jury-rigging? They have fabrication capabilities. Just bought a classic that needs diagnosis and maintenance replacement parts or upgrades? They will go over it with the proverbial fine tooth comb. They document work, show you the old decrepit parts they removed, and consult with you about the replacement options. And they do track inspections for a very reasonable rate (rather than the outrageous single fee price that some shops in CT charge). Dave has found and fixed problems overlooked (or caused!) by other Porsche specialty shops. And, their customer service goes above and beyond normal, including rescue missions. Our experience has included everything I've mentioned since we acquired a 1989 Porsche 944. Tim is so meticulous in his approach that we have complete confidence in him for everything from changing brake pads to a complete engine overhaul. You owe it to yourself to give KMC a try. read more

Absolutely amazing experience. I have to thank Jason for making a very scary purchase everything but scary. I purchased a 1995 Ferrari unseen. Jason was very honest from day one about any needs the car had. Sent pictures showing me the two issues and got them both fixed prior to sale. In addition he worked closely with me to get an independent inspection that I set up and made sure to have the car at the location (not near his site) when it was expected. Despite a perfect inspection they felt the Battery was on its last leg. That said Jason did not question and replaced it with an interstate battery at no charge. He also assisted in working with the transportation company to get the car shipped across country. You can't find this type of service very often. I will definitely recommend Kachel Motor Company to everyone I know looking for that special high end car and I expect to purchase from Jason again.

I have serviced my car and my whole entire extended family cars there! I am what you would call picky when it comes to cars. I put tape around the holes of my wheels were the lugs go if that helps you out with my mentalness with cars! I left my car there and forgot to tape the lugs on my wheels which cost more than I would ever care my wife to know about and I was worrying that I would see little scratches. When I picked up my car, in addition to all work being fantastic, there were no scratches on the lug holes of my wheels! I have never seen a more clean facility than theirs. The crew at KMC is top notch and I recommend them to anybody. They have figured out stuff on my car that I had to take to various shops only to find no answers. This is a true service, sales and fabrication facility. It really is a place you can drop off your pride and joy and not worry about anything at all. Job well done to the entire crew at KMC! read more

Pushing it into High Gear! I'm a recent 911 owner living in the North Shore of Boston. I wanted to take my daily driver, a 2006 911 C4 convertible to the next level and also enjoy a few track days a year. I was first introduced to the team at an open house last winter and knew that this was going to be my new shop of choice. Tim and the team are very welcoming and eager to share their vast knowledge of Porsche and performance upgrades. The team has performed fantastic work upgrading the suspension, brakes, alignment and a Software upgrade to swipe the factory mapping and draw out even more performance out of the car. My first track day at Palmer was an absolute blast and the car could not have been more ready after a track day pre-inspection. The flexibility of the team, loaner car availability and Porsche Passion has made this shop my only go to. Arnaud Lessard read more

I have been a client of KMC's for about four years now. I initially brought my car in for tuning of a custom built motor. During that drop-off, both Dave and Tim took the time to build a couple of brackets to better situate the various one-off components in my engine bay thus creating a professional finish and gaining a long-term customer. I have also worked with Jason as buyer broker and kicked the proverbial tires on many of the inventory cars. Recently I reached out to him for assistance on purchasing a car through a private sale. Jason was my "eyes & ears" while I was at work. I respect his opinion and know I am in good hands when dealing with any of the guys at the shop. read more

Great car as advertised and photographed. Bought from New Jersey and shipped to New Jersey without ever stepping foot in Boston. Jason was extremely knowledgable and competent speaking about my car which was very comforting buying sight unseen. Bought 2003 BMW 540i sport wagon with 105K mi in 2011 and have been problem free. Highly recommend Jason and will do business again with Kachel Motor Co. read more

I've been to KMC many times for service on my DDs and race cars. I have nothing but great things to say about all the guys there. Knowledgeable, friendly staff; spotlessly clean, professional garage; dyno room; showcase...what more could you ask for? read more
