“I’m not much of a review guy. I think I’ve written maybe two reviews in my entire life. But European Performance deserves one.
Hands down, this is the best experience I have ever had with a mechanic.
Yes, they are masters at what they do. Yes, they are exceptionally knowledgeable. And yes, the level of talent and mechanical expertise across the entire team is honestly unlike anything I’ve experienced before.
I recently bought an older Porsche that turned out to have a number of issues the previous owner either did not know about or did not disclose. European Performance went through the vehicle carefully and took the time to explain every issue to me: what was wrong, why it mattered, how serious it was, and what my options were. They never talked down to me, never rushed me, and demonstrated an extraordinary command of these cars.
What truly blew me away happened when I was preparing to approve a substantial amount of work. They called me personally and, instead of trying to sell me every repair on the list, cautioned me about putting that much money into an older vehicle with known issues.
Think about that for a second. A mechanic had thousands of dollars of work sitting there ready to be approved and called the customer to say, essentially, “Before you spend this money, let’s make sure this actually makes sense for you.”
What mechanic does that?
That told me everything I needed to know about this shop. These people are not only experts at their craft. They are genuinely good human beings who care about the person on the other side of the repair.
There is something special about keeping an old performance car alive. It has its scars, its history, its toil, and, in its own strange way, its honor. Tennyson once wrote of being “made weak by time and fate, but strong in will” and when one is in the twilight years of one's life one must always remember “to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.” That feels about right for an old Porsche that still has some fight left in it. It endures.
And if I’m going to trust anyone to help keep that fight alive and endure, it’s European Performance.
I can genuinely say I feel more comfortable buying an older enthusiast car that this team had personally inspected and cared for than I would buying a much newer vehicle with an unknown history.
European Performance is, without question, the best shop I have encountered in Billings, and I would trust them with anything I own.
10,000,000/5 stars.”

“I did not have any service done here, but James took a quick look at my car even though he was very busy. He pointed me in the right direction to get the problem fixed and he wouldn't accept any payment. It meant a lot to me because I was in a pretty stressful situation.”
“I went in for timing belt estimate. I was able to get timing belt, water pump, new hoses, A/C, fluids for the same price as 6 other repair shops wanted to just replace my timing belt! They took fantastic care of my old car, cleaned the engine & vacuumed inside. Nina the business Mgr communicated well and was fantastic to work with. Going forward, I will have them work on all of my vehicles.”
“I had an oil leak sealed in a Subaru with 264,000 miles as well as other minor repairs. The Subaru dealership quoted me a price more than double what Big Sky did the work for. I drove the car hard last weekend for 6 hours on a marathon trip to Helena. Not a single problem and excellent gas mileage. It would be a stretch to say my car drives like brand new - but not a big stretch. I couldn’t be happier. Thank you Chris and the crew at Big Sky!”

“If you are looking for an honest shop, this is it. I can’t recommend them enough. We’ve had them look at two vehicles for which other shops recommended brake jobs. On one the other shop recommended new pads due to wear. The Brake Shop advised our brake pads were still adequate. On the other they let us know the current pads were composed of the wrong material, but still safe to drive on, just a little squeaky. We elected to have the second vehicle done. The Brake Shop was reasonable, efficient, and had great communication the entire time. They work on just about everything, not just brakes.”

“This location is absolutely phenomenal. Every time I pull in I am met with eager, helpful, kind individuals. This last visit was no exception. I was confused whether I needed a full oil change and they informed me I was still good for another 2,000 miles, topped off all my fluids and sent me on the way. I appreciated the honesty more than I can say. So many businesses would have taken my money without hesitation. Thank you for being an exceptional, honest business. It's also great that there are a couple of rockstar females on your crew. Great experience across the board. 10/10 will recommend.”
“We were staying in Billings at an RV park for a couple of days. We had lost communication between the RV and our tow vehicle and we needed an interim solution. When we entered the store Matt greeted us and listened carefully to what our situation was. He quickly put together the perfect wired solution to work with our situation. His idea was spot on, and we really appreciate his help and assistance! Top notch place!”

“We were in the road trip 20 miles from Billings when we picked up a good sized windshield rock chip. We called Auto Glass Direct of Billings and spoke with Jonathan who suggested that we stop by and he would take a look. We arrived in 10-min. and 45-min later with an amazing glass repair, a virtually invisible repair, at a very reasonable price. The service was outstanding and Jonathan could not have been more helpful. We highly recommend this LOCAL company.”
