A truly outstanding repair shop to do business with. Without question they stood behind their work and took care of a small problem that arose a few weeks after the initial repair. It’s truly great to be able to trust them to perform the correct repair and are willing to make it right If you are looking for a trustworthy mechanic this is the place to go.

Simply the best. Have never had anyone work on a vehicle and be so straight forward and helpful .

Anyone who has ever had a European car knows the hassle of finding good servicemen. First Class Auto was recommended by King's Auto (another trusted repair place in Raleigh) and boy am I ever glad we called. Without going into too much detail I'll say Megan already saved us a ton of time and money while demonstrating extreme competence and knowledge of our 2012 Volvo xc 90 awd which is more than I can say for most INCLUDING THE REPS AT VOLVO. They have definitely earned a customer for life. If you're tired of being told "We don't work on European cars" call these guys. They are honest, reasonably priced, and knowledgeable. And ask for Megan!

1st Class did a great job - again. My car feels brand new again, they fixed what was wrong at a cost that was reasonable and everyone is so friendly. I will not bring my car anywhere else

A wonderful experience!!

These guys were very professional & kind. Came in for an alignment and oil change and they even cleaned up my car for me aswell, gave me a ride to my job close by and picked me up once the service was complete. First time here and won’t be my last 10/10 I recommend for anyone looking for a new shop to go to.

This shop is top notch. Got me in and out quickly and at a fair price.

Always 1st Class! I’ve trusted these folks with several cars and took my newest “pre-owned” to them yesterday. Thorough, professional and honest. They tell me the good and help me find anything that may need attention. Trust is easy to say and hard to earn. I trust the team at 1st Class and appreciate their service!

Another first class experience! The team at First Class is the best. Mercedes S, Porsche GTS, Porsche 911 Carrera, BMW, Ford F-150 all serviced and maintained at FCA. Jim Hicks Cary, NC

First Class Auto is the best business I have ever worked with. The service and the people are awesome! They never fail me.


Jan 07, 2025

My experience at First Class Automotive was excellent. They were kind, communicative, efficient, and thorough in taking care of my vehicle. The loaner they provided was clean as well. I really appreciated the transparency in cost up from with being provided an estimate prior to my appointment. They also called prior to servicing my vehicle to inform me about the overall health of my car and what upcoming maintenance I would need. As a woman, it felt wonderful not be the “haggled” and taken advantage of. I would definitely make them a preferred car service provider.

Always professional, helpful advice and repairs.

First Class Auto has been servicing and repairing my German automobiles for well over twenty years. They are the only shop I trust to efficiently service and repair what is now my fifth BMW. Their knowledge and honesty have always been refreshing.


Dec 07, 2024

Great job. Glad I took my vehicle to First Class.

Harry and Chris were great to work with. My car had not been serviced in while and Chris went through what was needed and due but did not try to force sell. We made a plan to do some now and some later. The work they did was professionally done, on time, and on budget. I would highly recommend 1st Class Automotive to anyone with a European car (Porsche, BMW, Mercedes, Audi) or any make for all your service needs.

I had my vehicle serviced at First Class Automotive for the first time yesterday. I was so pleased with the short wait time, the attentiveness of the service technician, and the cleanliness of the waiting area. Plus the reasonable price. I will continue to use their service rather than Lexus dealership. I highly recommend them to others.


Dec 07, 2024

Still the only place I trust with my car. Friendliest staff around, most efficient shop I've ever gotten work done at. Take your vehicle here. Do yourself that luxury.


Nov 07, 2024

Exceptional service! Very professional and always keeps you up to date and in the loop about the progress of your car.


Nov 07, 2024

First Class Automotive is the best auto shop anywhere around; they provide honest assessments of what needs to be done and are 100% trustworthy. Their work is topnotch!


Nov 07, 2024

I had a fantastic experience at this auto shop. Their service was prompt and honest. I felt confident in their recommendations and appreciated their transparency. I highly recommend them for anyone looking for reliable automotive service!


Nov 07, 2024

The name says it all. Look no further as you won't be disappointed. They were attentive to my inquiries and needs with warm and friendly service along with the quote. Service area was clean and well maintained. I am glad I found this place.


Nov 07, 2024

Very friendly and thorough. I waited and was happy with the time taken to get me completed.


Oct 07, 2024

Highly Recommend Chris and his team for being Honest, Professional, Knowledgeable, and Thorough in servicing my vehicle.


Oct 07, 2024

Kind, informative, helpful and fast. Highly recommend.


Oct 07, 2024

The team did a great job once again. Customer service was great, they kept me updated on what was going on with my car and how long it would take. And did a full diagnostic to let me know of any other checkpoints we may need to do in the future. I went in for an oil change and filter change and the car drives great. Thanks again, Team!


Oct 07, 2024

This was my first time going anywhere other than the dealership for service. Chelsea was so helpful and friendly. I felt like I was getting honest recommendations about the services my car did and didn't need. They even gave me a heads up on what I might expect the next time my vehicle is due for service. I'll definitely be going back.


Sep 07, 2024

Always fix it right the first time


Sep 07, 2024

I can’t say enough good things about First Class Automotive. I’ve taken both cars here and have been met with great customer service. Fully trust Chris and the rest of the crew to always do an amazing job. Have recommended First Class to anyone who asks.


Sep 07, 2024

These folks treat customers as would a great luxury auto dealership. Everyone is on point: they are always courteous, prompt and friendly; they communicate clearly and conveniently; the service department is trustworthy, reliable and provides quick, stellar service. My last visit required a couple of days to complete, so they even lent me a loaner. And...my car was returned - a day earlier than estimated, even - cleaner than when I dropped it off, including tire shine! For total customer satisfaction and peace of mind, I highly recommend this shop.


Sep 07, 2024

Took my truck in for new tires, they did a nice job and even cleaned the inside and outside of my truck. Pleasant experience compared to a lot of garages who try to constantly upsale you.


Aug 07, 2024

I’m very satisfied with the assistance I’ve received on my vehicle, they waisted no time fixing it and they cleaned it, I recommend anyone this is your best choice.. Thanks for everything.


Aug 07, 2024

Great customer care.


Aug 07, 2024

Knowledgeable, friendly and courteous! And they washed & vacuumed my car when the service work was complete! Great!!
