I've been taking my cars to Coastal Foreign Auto for well over a decade. I live in Valley Center and I drive 45 minutes to get my cars to Coastal Foreign because I can trust Chris and Peter. They do outstanding work, at a fair price, and they don't pressure me to do additional work that isn't immediately needed. They will let me know if they find any other problems with the car and whether or not they need immediate attention or can safely wait until a future date. I don't feel pressured and I don't feel like they are trying to upsell me. On more than one occasion they have fixed quick minor issues and not charged me a dime, because it only took 10 minutes. Who does that anymore?
Chris and Peter are honest, and I trust them, and that to me, is worth its weight in gold.

These guys are the BEST! My #1 for all of my BMW services. They are better than BMW themselves. Honest, genuine, efficient and painless. Loyal customer of 5 years now :)

Chris and Peter run a great business. I've worked with them for over a decade. They are always reliable and get all the work completed in a timely manner and they are as cost effective as any auto mechanics out there.

I've been using these guys for years, three cars worth. They have great labor rates and they don't try to add any unnecessary work. They also do the work needed more quickly which lowers the cost of labor. They also markup the price of parts delivered to them at a lower percentage rate than other places resulting in lower costs. I have all my work done there except oil changes be I do those my. I've never had a problem with them and have never had to bring any of my vehicles back due to shoddy work. I highly, highly recommend Pete and Mark at Coastal Foreign Auto in Encinitas.

I have a 2008 ML 350 with 100K + miles on it. I bring it in every 5K miles or so for an oil change and check up. The team does great work and always gets ahead of any needed repairs before it becomes a bigger problem. I love working with them and highly reccommend them for any Mercedes owners.Service: General repairs & maintenance

These guys are amazing! Always reliable and give honest service and respond quickly to my requests. I took my car in because it was making a noise underneath and it turned out to be a part that was hanging from below. They responded quickly and took a look at the car and did not charge me for the service. I recommend them highly!! They have always been great to deal with! I will continue to bring my car to them for all my services. I have been seeing them and they have been taking care of all of my cars for the past seven years. Thank you again for your fabulous service and responsive care for my Audi A6 and all our family vehicles.

Called to make an appointment to install a catalytic converter shield on my Prius. Job was done quickly. The price was absolutely the most competitive price. The work performed was great.

I've had consistently great service with everyone at CFAS. They do great work, are timely, and I've been especially impressed by their willingness to provide their opinions on the true needs and timing of services. They have become our families go-to for all our service needs and companies like this are rare (perhaps my first review? that's the level of esteem) Highly recommend for reasonable humans who value getting longevity out of their vehicles.Services: General repairs & maintenance

I have not been more impressed with an auto shop. They continue to be my #1 shop I take make 2012 c250. No matter what needs to be done they find a way and get it done in a timely manner. I will never take my car anywhere else to get work done because no one can compete with their customer service nor auto service.
