It is nice to have someone who is honest and skilled to work on your car. No one gets excited about having to maintain their car, but when you do have to have it serviced you want it done right. Horst’s is spot! Give them a try!

Brought in a q7 that was running rough. Replaced 2 coils. Ran great ! I asked about all 6. They said don't replace them. Could have sold me more.

Had my car fixed for 2 grand, was told that the service was under warranty, then 3 weeks later I had to have the same exact thing repaired for 1300 and even then they still gave me a hard time about it saying how they wouldn't be able to honor the warranty for some odd reason. O/5 stars.

Horst called me back personally after I left a message about scheduling a Pre Purchase Inspection with him and I got such a good and honest "vibe" from our conversation about my possible purchase of a particular late model BMW, that I would recommend bringing ANY German made vehicle to him for inspection or service! He seems extremely knowledgeable, honest and completely candid and forthright.

I know I said I’d never do another review after that whole “Chinese fire-drill” situation. However the employees here deserve recognition for doing great work. I went to see the GERMAN SPECIALIST at Horst’s in Venice hoping they’d have time to help me. I met Alex at registration great guy, funny personality and automotive knowledgeable. Then, Neal the Audi tech, I’d like to apprentice with this guy. He’s very knowledgeable about Germans vehicles. And writes meticulous work notes, to advise of progress. I would gladly give this auto shop a 10/10 if you drive a German auto. If you ever need any maintenance or auto repairs call Horst’s FIRST!!!
1st SIT REP:
Blackbirds first air-air incursion was with a (Lexus) f sport (mica blue very sexy color) @ 80 roll I put all my faith in Horst’s. Downshifted into sport mode and as the f sport was level and slowly creeping, the BLACKBIRD with pedal mashed to the floor just walked away. ?????????
“ just for clearance I have no knowledge of mods on the f sport, the BLACKBIRD has all bolt ons and IE tunes.

Horst's Bavarian Auto Works are real professionals. I feel that in many ways, they are superior to Audi dealers. Very easy to work with, and they do not do work without you knowing what they are doing. A great experience.

Highly Recommend, vast knowledge in German automobiles. Small family owned business (personable). They get your vehicle done relatively fast.

Venice's charm includes local independent services with impeccable reputations and friendly, competent staffs. Such is this repair shop that the variety of cars ranges from
classic 6-figure beauties to my 122+K miles "bucket" SUV to restored BIG BLOCK BEASTS
to daily commuter buggies. It's popularity & satisfied, loyal customers is advertising by
word-of-mouth within our community. Trustworthy work with fair fees says it all.

This place could actually do good work... But there are horrible communication problems I think... Unfortunate because they seem like good people. Call backs are basically non existent, so you have to call and stay on top of it... I honestly can't recommend them, and in the end they did do what was requested. Unfortunately the communication and time frame was, well way to poor.. I gave 2 stars because Alex was great to deal with and overall the pinnacle of my experience.

Horst is the only place to take your authentic German-made, Bentley, or other Bavarian car. I would buy this company and make it the industry standard. P M Wells

I've been going to Horst to get my Porsche serviced for over 5 years. They have gotten better in recent years providing detailed service costs in advance in writing and completing the work sooner than expected. To top it off, the full maintenance work just completed was roughly 50% cheaper than taking the car to a Porsche dealer. It's also fun to see all the classic German cars being serviced.
So glad we have this option in Venice to service our German cars!!
