Jordan, Vern and Louise are great people and they run a great shop. We've taken our cars here for years and have always gotten great service and jobs well done. My family had an auto shop in the Bay Area for 40 years, it's great to see another family car repair shop alive and well. These folks are great car repairmen and, maybe most importantly, are honest. This shop is the real deal. ??

The world of auto-care to a person who is not auto-savvy is daunting at best. To have a place that you can trust, does not gouge price-wise and is always looking out for you best interest as a person is priceless. Craig and Jordan are EXACTLY what customer service is about and are a gem in a dying world of service.Services: Transmission

Over a year ago the shop I regularly took my '87 Westy to for maintenance and repairs lost their VW mechanic. I started searching for a new one and found Specialty Foreign Auto right around the corner from my house. I've been with them for over a year now and have been absolutely pleased with the service they provide. Just to name a few I've had oil changes, tune up, suspension upgrades, transmission maintenance and replacement amongst many other things done with them so far. The whole crew is fantastic. They're fair, honest, reliable and trustworthy. These old machines can be finicky so it's been really great to have a shop that knows their way around them. It has been a pleasure working with the whole team and I look forward to continuing the relationship! Cheers to Craig, Jordan, Vern and team!

I had a great experience today having aftermarket adjustable camber arms installed on my Tesla Model S. I tried calling a few shops before Specialty, and they brusquely said "we don't work on Teslas" even though the suspension is just like other cars. Specialty kept an open mind and said they could do it no problem after I supplied detailed information on the procedure. They turned the car around in a couple hours and simply charged me their labor time, saving me a lot of money over Tesla or other aftermarket products I would have needed to do the job myself. Many thanks to Jordan for his open mind and efficient work. I will be coming to them again for other needs on my Tesla that shares a lot of parts and design in common with Mercedes.Service: Steering & suspension repair

I'm not sure why they charge nearly double other places. $130 for a full synthetic change in a 2.5 liter 4 cylinder makes zero sense. Definitely never coming here again.Service: Oil change

Sept 12-22: Smoke was coming from our '87 Vanagon, and the engine was splashed with transmission fluid. After several phone calls, we were referred to Craig and Louise at Specialty Foreign Auto. They squeezed us into their schedule and checked fluid levels-- all was OK. The conclusion is that the transmission may have been overfilled and/or the dipstick not properly installed; in any case nothing serious or to worry about. Keep the speed down and prevent overheating the transmission. We continued on our camping vacation. There was every opportunity for an expensive emergency repair bill. Instead, we got a quick and honest assessment. Craig's knowledge of the Vanagon systems is top-notch-- few shops can handle the Vanagon's quirky design. (As an example, a few years ago at another road side shop; I had to point out that the engine was in the rear!) I highly recommend Specialty Foreign Auto
