Import Specialty Service
The best and most caring service I've received when getting my car maintenance. I typically took my Mercedes to the dealership to get maintenance just so I knew everything would be done correctly, but the care factor was never there. With Import the second you made an inquiry you knew they would do the job right and also cared about their customers.

Doug and Kevin were forthright and honest with us. They communicated promptly and clearly and sought to save my wife and I money by foregoing unnecessary repairs like most dealerships. We highly recommend them for your import vehicle needs! Your car is freedom, providing you with daily transportation for everything in your life.

One of the hottest neighborhoods in Nashville is 12South. This is a destination as much as it is a place to live and work, with eclectic shops and restaurants lining the streets. 12South is located on the south side of Nashville near Belmont University, nestled between Hillsboro and Melrose. If you're in 12South, there's a good chance you'll run into someone you recognize.
The community of Antioch, TN is located about ten minutes south of Nashville along I-24. Antioch experienced a population explosion in the 1970s, largely from farmland made available for new construction. Several low-rise apartment buildings and mobile home parks went up in Antioch. A short drive to the southeast from downtown Nashville, there are many things to do and see around Antioch.
Belle Meade is a small city in Tennessee's Davidson County, just a few miles southwest of Nashville. It's located on 3.1 square miles of land from the former Belle Meade Plantation, after the plantation closed and was sold off more than 100 years ago. Belle Meade is by far the most wealthy city in Tennessee, with a per capita income of nearly $105,000.

Very thorough, but a tad but expensive. Took in my 2006 Range Rover. Wire work and new trans, check engine light.$11k +. Returned check engine light still on, truck stops right in traffic. Cost 2k+ more. They do a good job. Pray no need to go back.

Great service, easy text message web based based work invoicing. Prices are pretty standard for mechanic shops; so not cheap. But that is what it is. Friendly people to work with!

Was having repeated electrical issues with 2013 Honda Civic. Doug and (Kevin I believe?) were professional, thorough and thoughtful. They helped diagnose the issue, and walked me through how they landed to their conclusions. Most importantly, they helped navigate the history of the car and seemed to care about our solo car just about as much as I did. Very grateful for the help, and would recommend as a place to take your import car if you are completely confused and unsure of what to do.

Their staff is very professional and willing to help. I needed a pre-purchase inspection and they were so thorough with the vehicle. Communication and pricing was also great, I highly recommend Import Specialty Service for luxury car work. Quality auto service.

I am impressed with this ships ability to communicate and keep me informed with the status of my schedule and repairs. Customer service is a rapidly diminishing as a quality that businesses value. I appreciate that ISS understands the value of customer service.

HONESTY! That's exactly what you get with Byron, Ryder, and their entire staff. Hard to find this level of professionalism, integrity, and service at any shop anywhere! I was kept informed at every level of my repair. The final price was BELOW what I had authorized and my Lexus is running like it came off the showroom floor. 100% recommend this business to anyone needing maintenance or service on their vehicle. Complete family environment and concierge feel without the price tag.

Byron and the staff at Import Specialty Service are the top of the notch. The knowledgeable staff and technicians are the best. I had the complete Air Suspension System replaced on my Range Rover. Rides as smooth as silk. Great job guys! If I could give them 10 ⭐'s I would.
