My 1983 928S had sat for about 5 years with minimum driving and maintanence. I brought it to Mike on the back of a tow truck. A quick review showed how much needed to be done just to bring it to running order. I can now report the 928s is up and running with full vigor, cleaner than ever (an unasked for standard service) and a pleasure to drive. Thank you Mike and crew!! read more

I had an outstanding experience with Perfection Auto Works. Mike, the owner and mechanic, did an incredible job replacing the engine on my BMW 528i. The work was done professionally and with great attention to detail--the car is running better than ever. What really stood out was the communication. Mike kept me informed every step of the way and made sure I understood what was being done and why. On top of that, his pricing was honest and fair, which is hard to find these days. Even after the job was completed, Mike was great about addressing any warranty-related questions or concerns without hesitation. That level of service really builds trust. If you're looking for a shop that does high-quality work, stands behind what they do, and treats customers right, I highly recommend Perfection Auto Works. read more

I have been using Perfection Autoworks for a little over a year now. Mike (the owner) and his team do a phenomenal job. Mike is clearly an expert in the field and knows his cars inside and out. He does a comprehensive inspection of your car and makes recommendations on what needs to be done. There is never any pressure to do any work. His pricing is fair, his work is exemplary, and he keeps you informed. He recently serviced my 23 year old SL500. He recommended a tune up and there were a couple of leaks that needed to be assessed. I picked the car up yesterday, the bill was as I was told it would be. No surprises no ridiculous pricing. I got in the car and headed home. Honestly the car felt new again. I hadn't noticed the slow performance deterioration that can occur over time. The car's performance was back to top condition. I am absolutely thrilled and one can rarely say that when leaving a service appointment! Thanks Mike! read more

Perfection Auto Works - Auto Repair Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

I cannot implore people enough to stay away from this place as well as the owner. Mike, he is rude. Unprofessional has no customer service capabilities at all. It doesn't matter if he's not busy or not. This man is a jerk. There are so many more repair shops in Tucson that can help you and treat you like an actual human being. This man is terrible. I do not recommend enough to stay away from him. Stay away from his business and to not even think about bringing your vehicle here. And do not let the reviews on here or Google tell you otherwise, they might be near five stars on Google. Look at the one star reviews and you can figure it out. This place is not cracked out to be everything that it says it is. read more

Mike the owner, as evident from the reviews, may be competent but he is often very difficult to take. I gave him thousands of dollars for repairs on my classic MCB, and most went well. But he sent me home with a fast gas leak which was supposed to have been fixed-a hazard and marring my garage. I returned and he had replaced the filler cap in addition to apparently working on the fuel pump. The cap was extremely tight so I was barely able to remove it. He had "discarded " my original. When I complained he told me not to return even though many repairs should have been covered by his warranty. He did not return my call when 4 months later the leak recurred. read more

Everything about 'Perfection Auto Works' lives up to its name! I took my Mini Cooper in to Mike on a very high recommendation of a friend- and I am so happy I did. Mike (the owner) was polite, respectful, walked me through each line item with detailed explanations. Finding a mechanic who cares as much about my car as I do is a rare find! Highly recommend Perfection Auto Works! read more

Mike and his crew are nothing short of incredible. Integrity, commitment and customer service is A++. Mike holds himself to a higher standard compared to a lot of other mechanics in town. They take their time to make sure the work they perform is consistent and efficient. I am truly happy with the service Mike provided me for the repair of my vehicle. These guys are truly awesome! Thank you, Mike! read more

We used to have our Audi's maintained there but after some sketchy repairs and too much fast talking we stopped. It was a 'roach hotel'...our cars checked in but never seem to get out unless a lot of other things had to be fixed and paid for. We lost trust in the shop. read more

Mike took my sons Volvo off a tow truck. I had it towed in with unknown problems. I had it towed from a Midas shop that has been good to me. I reviewed Perfection Auto Works on Yelp after I sent it over. Mike came off as reported, a no nonsense guy, on the phone and said what was on his mind.. I left the vehicle with him and am very happy with the service. His fee was as quoted. There was a situation with the transmission that they figured out and got around. That could have been a huge additional expense! He did a couple of things that he was not under contract to do for free. I recommend PAW. read more

Mike Emery is a RUDE unprofessional man........He checked out my convertible top........and then said it could not be put down again without a several hundred dollar service.......and he said a labor charge would be charged for that.............He also called me a sniveling weiner over the phone when I called him back to ask him what the smelly sticky substance was that was put on a part of my car where a plastic piece had fallen off.............WOW......NEVER will I recommend this place........... read more

Perfection is an understatement! My vehicles will ONLY go to Perfection Auto Works for maintenance. My truck went in for rat damage and other minor service. I can't say enough about the amazing work completed by the crew. When I picked up my truck, it looked beautiful and drove better than the day I purchased it. Never to go anywhere else, not even the dealership. Perfection Auto Works is the ONLY place for my vehicle care. You too, will be so happy to do the same. read more

Mike and his crew at perfection auto took a look at our porsche boxter that had a few issues. Not only did they fix it all buy it was done in a timely manner and we were informed the whole way along the journey. The bill seemed high at first but when you look at everything they did it was a great deal for a great job. Quality always cost but this place and Mike is well worth it! Dr Black read more

Perfection Auto Works did an outstanding job with my car! Mike was very accommodating with my schedule, and he was a great communicator throughout the entire visit! I really appreciated the shops ability to get my car fixed in a day, and I was super happy to hear about the warranty with all of the parts installed! I will definitely be coming back, and I will be sure to pass on the positive experience with anyone looking for a automotive services! Thanks again! read more

A couple of weeks ago, my car started severely overheating while I was stopped in traffic, or when the car wasn't moving -- my car (a BLACK Volvo S60 2012) would tell me to stop the engine while going 0mph. My friend recommended Perfection Auto Works to me, as she also has a Volvo, and I'm so glad I put my trust in her recommendation. Mike was very helpful, open, and honest about the work that needed to be done outside of a new radiator fan. He also fixed my AC, as it hadn't been blowing cold enough air during hot days for as long as i could remember. He assured me that I was going to be happy with the work they were doing, and I am!! I'm a student at UA, the car is originally from Ohio and I wasn't accustomed to having big repairs done in Tucson yet, but I'm so happy that Mike led me through the process of everything, and was efficient with his work. It's still in the 100s in Tucson right now, and my car is not overheating in the slightest, and the AC is freezing! Thank you so much Mike and your team, and I will be coming back to you with any future issues! read more

Great service and communication. Do not hesitate to bring your car here for excellent, reliable maintenance and repair.

I brought my 1999 Porsche 996 to Perfection for work on the cooling system. Mike and his crew did a very thorough workup of the entire vehicle, clearly detailed the needed repairs, and identified additional work that would be needed along with advice about what could be deferred. We ended up replacing all the aging hoses from the firewall back, along with a new water pump, air-oil separator, thermostat, and a bunch of other stuff. Mike did quite a bit of "while you are in there" work at a very fair price, and presumably this will save me labor costs in the future. I really appreciated MIke's knowledge of the vehicle and it's systems and his commitment to doing the job right with no shortcuts. He went to great lengths to explain the issues. The diagnosis of the cooling system issues was a bit complicated by an intermittent fault in a cooling fan, but in the end I am very pleased with the work and the service. read more

Perfection Auto is just perfect! Experience, knowledge, reasonable.

I could not have gotten, asked for or recieved better service from Mike and crew. The one thing you need when you have a used Porsche is an honest mechanic who doesn't just want to cash in. That's Mike. I went to his shop after buying a used Boxster and wanted him to check it out for me. He gave me an honest assessment and when he told me it would need new brakes, I thought great - "here we go." But was relieved when he said not immediately, maybe next year. Most mechanics would try to cash in immediately, Mike knows how to make a customer a long time customer and not just a one and done. So, thanks Mike. I like your shop and all but hope I don't have to see you again until next year! read more

Went in recently for a simple oil change, as well as a second inspection on a vehicle I semi-recently bought. For one, the thoroughness of everything that Mike went over to bring the vehicle up to snuff was impressive. Additionally, he suggested factory parts in some instances and gave detailed reasons as to why you might want to spend more on certain items, such as better brakes/pads since it's a heavy vehicle. And it wasn't some sales-pitch. (I would know.) He also prioritized everything, providing a rough "schedule" of when certain things should be fixed by. And lastly, he's a personable and knowledgable business owner. Ended up chatting with him for some time. I will not hesitate to bring the vehicle back for the work recommended. read more

The owner may have the knowledge in getting the parts fixed, but has no sensitivity in the actual market condition. Don't go here for inspection. You'll likely waste your time. read more

I only take my baby ('86 MB 560 SL with 39,560 miles) to Mike and his staff. After multiple trips I cannot think of anything I would want to change about the experience. Only took an hour for my annual service today. They gave me their opinion of a potential issue, which we fixed, and also let me know of how to better care for my car. It seems as if they just don't fix your car but try to educate the car owner on steps they can take for a better driving experience. I would not go anywhere else. read more

I was traveling from Texas to Los Angeles and my Mini Cooper got a check engine light on so instead of going to the dealership I stopped by here at 8am and Mike did a free check up. Very fast and told me it was a Evap issue and I can fix it when I'm back in Los Angeles. I am so thankful I went here ! I'm not worried now about my drive. He was very honest and knew what he was talking about and made sure I know what to tell my mechanic. THANK YOU MIKE ! read more

After moving back to Tucson, it was hard finding a mechanic that was willing to work on my Bmw 7 series. They were either untrustworthy or refused to touch the car with a 10 foot pole but then... I found Mike! Not only did he tackle the problems that I came in for, he found and fixed some major issues that I didn't notice. Mike respected my budget and we talked about every step that was going to be worked on. In the end my car looked and felt like new! I just want to thank Mike and his team at Perfection auto works for doing such a great job. I'm glad I found a shop I can trust for quality work. read more

Although I never met him face-to-face, Mike is a personable guy on the phone and very knowledgeable about his profession. He was very accommodating to me, even after I had dropped my vehicle off in his driveway overnight and then failed to call in the morning to follow up with what I was having done. Once I finally called and we got it all straightened out, his shop was quick to turn my vehicle around and return it to me that same day. I brought my BMW in for a free inspection, to see what was needful to have serviced before selling it. The free inspection is a great value and appreciated. The downfall here was that, despite the small things that apparently needed attention, Mike stressed the fact that my front breaks, rotors and sensors were in need of IMMEDIATE replacement, and that I was close to "metal on metal". He made it seem like it wasn't safe to sell the vehicle in the condition the breaks were in, and that I should be weary of even driving it over the weekend before having them replaced. We discussed prices and ultimately I was quoted $688 for replacing front pads, rotors and sensors. He stated he was giving me a "deal" on over all service costs because he wanted to do whatever he could to persuade me to leave the vehicle over the weekend and get our service. I decided to get a second opinion, because honestly, my breaks didn't feel or sound worn, nor did my BMW ever alert me that my pads in need of replacement. Took the vehicle to Break Masters, and was told the breaks have approximately 2 years of life left, "front breaks approx 82% remaining". Even if I did require front rotors, pads and sensors, two separate Break Master locations quoted my BMW at $430 out the door. I was extremely disappointed in Mike's quote, and his insistence that I replace my perfectly good breaks. I feel like I have been taken advantage of, and I'm so thankful I went for a second opinion. How many other poor folks have been pushed and passively agreed to pay for services they didn't need, and then followed up by giving the shop 5 star reviews?? I want to finish this review by being optimistic. Perfection Auto Works is not a break speciality shop, I get that. My inspection was free, and I paid nothing when I drove away. I'm ASSUMING they took the wheels off and inspected the breaks. If thats the case, then I was being quoted service that was simply just plain dishonest. If they DIDNT remove the wheels, then just be aware that this may not be the full-point inspection as advertised. (Don't get me wrong here, its free. I paid nothing, and thankfully, I still have $688+ in my pocket today). Perhaps Mike received misinformation from his inspectors? Perhaps he had me confused with someone else's vehicle? I'm sure there are excuses. The whole experience leaves me wondering what else on the inspection list that I was told needed done, truthfully needs being done? This was not a 1-star review, but by no means a 5-star experience. Bottom line, get a second opinion, and no, I would not recommend this shop, or would I ever have my vehicles serviced here. There are other shops in town that specialize in European made vehicles to chose from. read more

Mike and his Team are awesome!!! I was looking for a reputable shop to work on my Porsche 928 S4. Being that it's becoming a collectible and increasing in value, and mine is well kept, my work was cut out for me. I should preface by saying I try to work on all my own cars (BMW M3, AUDI Q7 S-LINE, NISSAN 350Z) as much as possible and I can sometimes get a bit pedantic (meaning I care much about minor details) on how I do things and how I want things done - precisely, cleanly, and with attention to detail. So..... I took my 1988 Porsche 928 S4 to Perfection Auto to get quite a few things addressed and inspected. Being almost a 35 year old car, things start to accumulate rapidly that need to be looked at and replaced. Mike was honest and patient with my list of concerns and repairs. I believe he is one of the very few if not the only one in Tucson that is knowledgeable when it comes to 928's. He came up with a detailed game plan on what needed fixed now, what could wait, and what was not an issue. Every time I had a question or suggestion, he would explain and educate me and keep me updated on what was going on with the S4. When all was done, the car not only ran like NEW, but looked great too because they detailed it as well!! I value his attention to detail and the time he took to "get it right the first time." Needless to say, I also took my son's VW Passat and he got that running like new as well. I highly recommend Perfection Auto Works not only for their expertise, integrity, and professionalism but also the price was just right too!! Thanks Mike :-) read more

Recently had the EGR cooler, MAF sensor, and various hoses replaced after "Engine Malfunction - Reduced Power" warning light popped up. Having recently moved to Tucson (and being only 2 miles away when CEL came on), I started at BMW of Tucson and spent 3 days trying to get a straight answer as to what was going on and how much would it cost. Read other reviews here; gave Perfection Auto a call; and had a solid plan/estimate within 12 hours that was $1000 below the dealership. Best of all - work was complete by end of next day. Also noteworthy - Mike E. stayed open an extra hour due to traffic/tow delays and even arranged for Enterprise to have a car ready for me - at a $29/day rate (special for his customers). Could not be more pleased with this team. Highly, highly recommend. read more

Mike is the best mechanic I have been to. I have had several issues with my car, most of which were caused by other shops. Mike and his team fixed all the problems and returned my car as good as new. They had to work very hard to figure out the issues as they were not normal problems. After another company fried my ignition, Mike replaced 3 computers and several other parts. He had to do tremendous amounts of research as well as get hold of very rare parts, yet managed it in a very timely manner! Brilliant work and amazing people. read more

Perfection Auto Works is hands down the best auto repair service I've used. Mike and his team are incredibly knowledgeable, fair and professional! They are true experts in their field. I began taking my Porsche to Perfection Auto Works 10 years ago after doing some research and comparing prices to repair a drive train issue. Perfection Auto Works was able to resolve and repair my issue immediately and timely. Mike doesn't just review your immediate service needs, but he gives you detail as to what services you may need in the future (ie: tires, oil change, brakes, scheduled services) so you are better prepared to keep your car running smoothly. I will only have Perfection Auto Works service my car! Thanks Mike and the Perfection Auto Works Team. read more

After diagnostics were run, Mike recommended a number of repairs. He was upfront and said which ones were necessary now and what could wait. I opted to have more repairs done as it was a little less expensive overall. My son and husband reviewed the estimates and agreed they were very reasonable (they both have a lot of experience with cars but weren't available to do the work) I had some issues with my check engine light coming back on after and Mike was very good at getting the car back into the shop and working to resolve the issue. Then my tire blew out and he sent someone over right away to deal with it. He was always pleasant and enjoyed talking with his customers. read more

Mike and his crew are solid. I've had both my Porsche and BMW worked on at perfection auto and have been very happy with the service, pricing, and outcomes. I recommend this company highly. read more

I am completely blown away by the excess of good reviews. Whoever I spoke with was not the display of stellar behavior matching the reviews. I started off the phone call by saying, "I have an extended warranty and I would like to see when I can come in for an appointment." He immediately replied, "well... we don't like dealing with extended warranties here. You know why? Because they don't pay." So I said," ok so I should check with another shop?" He says, "no Im just saying we don't like dealing with them!" I gave him the make and model of my car, and we setup an appointment and he proceeded to tell me, that diagnosis fee was $118 and that I would have to pay for my own rental. I told him that was all covered thru my warranty. He says "so it sounds like you 'only' want to go through your warranty. I said"yeah! I'm not made of money. Thats what the warranties for." He says, " well since thats the case then maybe you should go somewhere else!" And rushed off the phone. I believe in being straight forward. And I an not one to get easily offended by someone who is a little rough around the edges, but whoever talked too was just downright rude. I don't know if it's because I have a less expensive car I was treated that way, but when you are running a business, you will receive good customers and referrals when you are honest AND courteous with people in general. Soo disappointed I was treated this way. read more

Quality work and quality customer service. Because of that, they are usually very busy. Mike is very knowledgeable and a business man. He doesn't sugar coat anything and gets straight down to business. I've had them do a lot of work on my '88 BMW 735i and it's always done correctly. I had them change my A.C. compressor which broke a week later (not their fault) and Mike changed it out free of charge. Mike and his crew are the only people I'll have work on my BMW. read more

Can I give negative stars? Had major work "guaranteed" by Mike at imPerfection for my Audi A6 Wagon. Paid nearly what the vehicle was worth only to see the check engine light come on 4-5 days later. Crestfallen. Would NEVER even trust this shop to fix my bicycle let alone a complicated German vehicle. Be-Ware. read more

Mike and his staff are extremely friendly, KNOWLEDGEABLE and professional. They were able to detect a problem in one of my cars that no other mechanics could find. Car runs amazing now. I only use this shop for all of my auto repairs. read more

I had a horrible experience with Perfection Auto Works. Mike was rude, to say the least, so I decided not to use his service. His initial offer was to do an inspection of my car and report what needed to be done. Due to his attitude I decided not to have the repairs done at his shop. When I picked up my vehicle, I noted the driver's side power mirror and the horn were no longer operational. Whether this was intentional or just incompetence, it's created another problem for me to have to deal with. I will never go back nor can I in good conscious recommend Perfection Auto Works. read more

Be PREPARED to pay through the nose at this place. I will say that they are competent and they know what they are doing but every time I go there I feel like I'm being fleeced. Lord, why can't I find a good auto mechanic? read more

After having it detailed, my 2004 SLK 320 looks like new inside and out! Also, repairs were made and completed as promised. This was my first time using Perfection Auto Works as I recently moved to Tucson. As long as I live here I will continue using Perfection as they lived up to their name. Thanks Mike! read more

Perfection Auto Works is perfection! Super Mike as well as Crista with her little dog. These people make you want to come back just to talk. Wonderful experience and great work on my car. read more

I'm reclaiming a sad and neglected 2001 Boxster. Pretty much everything needed attention and I do my own work. Man this thing is an adventure! Mike, the owner, has been very enthusiastic and giving. He's spent well over an hour with me on the phone making suggestions, sharing knowledge, and encouraging me. Good guys here! Oh, and ladies, that Mike is one handsome devil! And a Porsche fanatic. read more

Hello, I thought I would let people know that I have taken my Mercedes, my Lexus and my husbands BMW to Perfection Auto Works for over 12 years now, and I want to let EVERY ONE ON THE PLANET know how HAPPY and how SATISFIED my relationship has been with this shop. They offer a FREE 26 point inspection that lets you know whats up with the car as it goes to the shop. Mike Emery always lets you know if their are thing you need to pay attention to. My husbands BMW needed rear brakes, and since the brake lite was not on, I trusted that the brake pads were as thin as he said......sure enough, when he asked me to look at the rear brakes.... I could see the pad, and they were almost to metal. What I loved about the inspection and the new inspection, was the fact that Perfection Auto Works had told me 5 months before that the brakes were getting thin.!!!! Wow, no surprise, as Perfection Auto Works had already told me the facts on their inspection. We have been to many shops in the Tucson area on just the "oil change " circuit ,but I don't recommend this if you want quality......the last one left the drain plug loose. I HIGHLY recommend Perfection Auto Works because they have the ability and the professionalism to do a wonderful job on your car, or my car... In fact, I m taking my neighbors Infinity to Perfection Auto Works next week......... She cant drive due to a broken leg, but has the same respect and judgment as I...... We trust our cars with Perfection Auto Works and You should too.......... Sincerely S. Jones read more
