No matter what type of car you drive, whether it's personal use, professional use, or if cars are your hobby and you're trying to restore a classic this is the place to bring your car so you know for a fact that it's in good hands. It's family owned and operated since it's inception and once you're a customer here you'll be coming back for all your car repair needs.

Where can you take your car for repair where you can trust the mechanics?…read more Gustavo's G.F. auto repair always gives me the no-nonsense, honest no-b.s. explanation, no scare tactics often employed by other shops. He'll tell you what's wrong or what's not wrong, and what repair is needed (right away or whether you can wait for a while if you need to stretch it). And if repairs need to be done, he always gives you great quote on the price, way below the price quoted by others. Case in point -- just took my car to Mr. Tire's, and was told that the front & rear struts need to be fixed, front low control arms are "broken" and the tires are so bad the could fall off! (seriously?) Mr. Tire's quoted me $1246. I knew it shouldn't be that bad and brought it to G.F. for a second opinion. 30 minutes later he called me -- yes, struts needed to be replaced, ftont arm control arms have a leak but it's not bad so I can fix it now or later, and tires are absolutely fine. Total is $540. Case closed, car went to G.F.. The 5-star is perhaps somewhere around 4.5 just because the wait was sometimes long (but as much as I could, I planned ahead and dropped off the car for pick up later). But the key reason for the 5 star is the TRUST -- a rare commodity especially in this business.

My most recent issue involved a really loud squeaking noise that drove me absolutely nuts. Since I've been here in the city I've tried several different shops and decided to give Sports and Classics another shot mainly due to its proximity to my job. Harvey was nice to work with. After a huge miscommunication on what exactly I wanted to get fixed after the diagnostics he comped hundreds of dollars off my bill with no problem andddd on top of that several weeks later the truck is still running great. I know most mechanics get a bad rep especially when it comes to dealing with single females but I would definitely recommend Sports and Classics and Harvey to all!

Shops like this is so rare in NYC, there is a reason this shop is in business for so long, I strongly recommend this place for your suspension needs. Thank you Howard and Maurice for a job well done.

I picked up my vehicle from metro honda and apparently this body shop didn't clay bar my hood thus revealing buff marks, scratches and swirls on my brand new accord. Later I noticed the area they blended had dust in the paint! Are you F*cking kidding me! Now I had to write to honda corporate about this issue. My car then had to go back to this body shop to get the whole hood repainted. Once I picked up my vehicle again this body shop didn't align my hood correctly exposing gaps at the sides! This body shop is sh*t. I have friends who do body work and they told me that this body shop is unprofessional from the things that happened to me. This place doesn't pay attention to detail. I was told this shop stands by their work. But, I believe their work is full of sh*t. Don't bring your vehicle here!
