Georgetown & Round Rock Auto Repair

I recently purchased an '02 Miata that had a few more issues than I could handle myself, and after asking around on enthusiast forums, I chose Auto-Spec based on their reputation specifically for fixing Miatas. I was not disappointed. The service I received was totally worth the drive up to Round Rock from Central Austin. They even have a key drop, so I was able to drop it off in the evening! What really sold me was the amount of communication Ray provided. He was completely up front about what their diagnosis uncovered, and what other potential issues might come up (and how much they would cost) once they started working. I seem to have lucked out with a best-case scenario, but the level of communication and honesty would warrant a 5-star review either way.

Becarful of fake positive reviews, there seems to be many for this company, as they change names Took my Honda civic, they tried to overcharge for my oil pan, and when I quoted a price $100 less at Oreilly, the shop called them for me, and said it would take 3 weeks for the part, and when I found the same part at autozone, which would come next day, they said, they won't put autozone parts in my car, and told me to take my keys back.. Now, if they don't support anything besides OEM parts for their warranty, why entertain the idea of oreilly auto parts, and then change their mind when I found it in autozone for the same part. .... Apparently, when you get caught lying 2x, there is no going back. I would stay away! Please, if your an Triple AAA member, you can find better places then these people. They gave me an estimate of damages, without even taking the car into the garage, keep in mind, my car had damage underneath it. that's how bad these people are. I had Tripple AAA to come back and take my care to another shop.

John Long, Jeremiah and the Auto Spec team are my go-to folks for working on my Spec Miata race car. You can see pictures of the car on my profile. Their knowledge goes waaaaayyyy beyond just fixing cars. They do full race setups for me, brakes, motor work, all of it. Solid people and really knowledgeable and honest team.

As an owner of a Mazda Miata, I entrust all of the work done on it to John Long and his team at Automotive Specialist in Round Rock. The fact that John owns a Miata of his own reassures me that he truly understands the vehicle and the nuances of repairing one. His team, led by Ray and Mike, are great about getting the work scheduled and done. I have rarely had to wait more than a day to have work completed. Automotive Specialist is also one of the few repair shops in the area that warranty their work for 2 years (not the standard 6 months to a year) so they really stand behind the work that they do. To date, I have had my brakes, AC, clutch and convertible top done at Automotive specialist and have absolutely no complaints. Some things in life are an absolute must and a great mechanic is one of those. I have found mine in Automotive Specialist.

Everyone at Autospec is awesome! They are honest and don't overcharge, I won't take my Miata anywhere else.

Most of the time, my cars go to these guys for maintenance, repairs, and modifications. They are honest, easy to deal with, they communicate really well, and they know how to be fair on price. I have thousands of dollars worth of repairs and maintenance done with them to date and I'm happy with every dime I spent. You will be, too. Particularly raving props go out to Ray, he's pretty great.

Great friendly staff

I brought my rx8 to Automotive specialist for an oil change. Got my car back with two long scratches on the steering wheel. Mike said that he was sorry about it. I suggest you check you car every time you get it back from these guys even if you leave it there for only half an hour. Other than that service was ok.

Love this place! My dad lives in Mississippi so it's nice to know that someone will be there to let me know what's going on with my car and let me have it straight. Everyone is very professional and the place is clean. They also have a driver if you want to go hang out somewhere else while your car is repaired or your oil is changed. They are the only AAA approved car repair in georgetown!

I drive about 30 minutes, past dozens of other mechanic shops, to this one. The first time I walked into the waiting area, I thought I was in the wrong place. It's so nice and clean! Very comfortable if you have to wait, with a complimentary Keurig coffee bar and nice seating. The mechanics are top notch, honest and hardworking. They will educate you and give you options so that you feel comfortable with the repairs or maintenance. I always leave feeling like my business is appreciated. Trust me, you will be in good hands here!
