They are hands down THE most incredible shop for BMWs on earth. Listen, I cannot emphasize this enough. They are car guys and most importantly, BMW guys. It is like having Dinan in your back yard. They are supremely professional and more interested in your car being perfect than you are :-). Ron Trochelmann is the owner. He will do anything to ensure that your service experience is over the top and that you leave blown away. I could go on an on about these guys. It is just one of those rare places that you find and you never forget. NO ONE touches my car except these guys now. They have set the bar so high from the very first experience with them that I cannot imagine another shop or dealer beginning to match up.

Also, if/when you want performance mods, they are masterful. My car is completely modded with Dinan parts, all work performed by Performing Imports. Frankly, I would honestly trust them as much as I would having Dinan install the parts themselves. Incidentally, I believe they are one of the largest Dinan installers in the US. It is a very clean and professional moderately sized Indy shop. Work is always on time and always exceeding my expectations. You will never worry about unnecessary repairs or mods. They'll steer you in the direction that is in your best interest, not theirs (well, in essence it is in their best interest because you WILL come back). Their reputation here is unmatched really. I have been here 32 years. I have had (6) 5 series cars an I could kick myself for not having used them sooner. I just started doing business with them this year even though I knew of them for many years.

Man, I sound like I am in love with these guys huh?-lol! Seriously, I have no affiliation with them whatsoever. I just could not in good conscience pass up your post without giving you this recommendation. Highest endorsement.

In fact, if you want any more info about them then please feel free to PM me anytime.

Oh yeah. Some nice perks for doing business with them as well. They have trips to Road Atlanta where they do invitation only days on the track and last month they did an event at Atlanta Motorsports Park. Very cool guys.

I guess I could sum it up by saying that if I were ever to relocate from Atlanta, there is a VERY high chance that would make a drive from out of state to have them continue to be the guys who exclusively service my car.

Good luck with the move. When are you moving? Have you picked a location yet? If you just need questions answered feel free to PM me and I'll shoot you my cell#. Glad to help a fellow BMW enthusiast any way I can.
