Very pleased with the service, the prices and the speed! I am very pleased with how they do business and will be a repeat customer. I came in to change the breaks and change my winter tires, and was told that the tires didn’t properly fit my car, and they sourced the correct parts to make sure that my vehicle is safe. Thank you Desmond and the team.

I have been going here the last year to service my bmw. I’ve done oil changes, vehicle diagnostics, replaced a lamp, and done a safety with them. Desmond and the team are honest and have very fair prices (especially given they’re in the downtown location). I drop off my vehicle at the start of the day and pick it up at the end of the day. They are very communicative through the whole process and give you updates as necessary. They even follow up later on to make sure things are still good. For those of you who work in the core, there is the street car stop right across from them.

Great service. Thank you.

Happy with my experience here. They were on time and under what they quoted me initially. I wish they explained things a little more about what was actually done on the car.

Very professional and work well done as usual.

Central Import was recommended by a friend when I relocated to Toronto. Desmond and the team are professional, friendly and provide quality services and products that always exceed my expectations. I do like being informed when a particular item will need attention in the future. The cost for service is fair and transparent. I highly recommend Central Import for your automotive needs.

Just had a Fall tune up by Desmond and the crew at Central Import on my 2011 Cayenne.

My experience with Central Automotive over the last 20 years has been excellent. Their work is carried out quickly and efficiently. Their charges are fair. I would not trust my Mercedes to any other garage. Value for money and excellent attention from Desmond and Hector.

Car seems to work - only driven it 5 km in the day since I picked it up but it works. Part was ridiculously expensive, but I assume that’s not your fault.

Great service. Desmond and the CI team provide efficient, quality service at reasonable costs.

Each experience with Central Imports has been a great one. They communicate what they have found and are efficient and in-depth in their work. They do great work and it is a pleasure to bring my car to them. Their customer service is top notch.

Professional, trustworthy and timely service. Brought my X5 in for a repair that another mechanic didn’t know how to fix. They found the issue quickly, had the parts ordered and in by noon and car was repaired same day. I highly recommend this place.

I’m always comfortable taking my car into Central. This time, I had a dead battery under warranty. I couldn’t jump it, so asked if I could bring it in and have them put it on a trickle charge overnight. That confirmed there was an issue with the battery. They promptly replaced it, I dropped it in, and my GTI started no problem. :)

Tom Sep 9, 2024
In the last year I've taken my car to Central Import for 2 issues, expecting a big repair bill. Both times the total came to $200. This tells you two things: that they don't pad your bill with unnecessary work, and that if they tell you that major work is required, you can believe them. Very knowledgeable, courteous and honest - I trust them with my baby! Highly recommended.

Great service, reasonable rates.
Brandon Kejick Sep 9, 2024
I took my Mercedes into Central Import last Oct on the recommendation of a co-worker. Had them do a complete inspection along with a winterization and tire swap. I was pleased with the result.

Long-time customer here. These guys are about as dependable as any business I’ve ever used. They do solid work and they finish it when they say they will.

I recently took my Audi to to Central Import and the staff was knowledgeable, professional and clearly experienced with Audis. Pricing was fair and they took the time to explain everything before proceeding with the repairs. The shop is clean and well-organized and I highly recommend them for anyone looking for reliable and efficient service for their vehicle.
Scott Hosmer Aug 8, 2024
I was in need of a mechanic for my Mercedes and referred to Desmond by a friend. He was just the person I had been looking for since the mechanic I used died. All the work that has been done on my car has been in a breakdown situation and Desmond and his team were reassuring and got my car back on the road quickly. The other services have been excellent as well.
Rosamund Witchel Aug 8, 2024
Very pleased with the professional service.
Patrick McKeever Aug 8, 2024
I have Central Import listed as ‘Mechanic’ on my contact list, and it’s been that way for the better part of a decade. Finally remembered to leave a review and give them the 5 stars they earned so long ago. Keep it up, guys!

Received good advice on a new set of tires from Desmond. Really enjoying the improved ride quality, noise reduction and wet weather handling.
