Walnut Creek Auto Repair

Torsten did a phenomenal job on my 86 QV S3. All the issues that I have addressed has been fixed from top to bottom without any hiccups. He also did a full inspection/diagnostics which is a plus in order to reveal the hidden issues that we regular people cannot see as a highly skilled technician. Honest man with quality work always comes to a price, he will show/pinpoint you in person the real issues of the car that will need repair so that you wont have to come to the shop more often to get your car being fixed. Bundle the work one time to save labor cost since he has a lot of exotic/vintage cars lined up everyday that needs his services.

I'm someone who generally avoids shops at all costs and I try to do everything myself since I've had too many bad experiences. I had Prestige replace the clutch in my 1990 Ferrari 348 and could not have asked for a better experience. Torsten is fantastic to work with, and he excels where most shops fail: communication. I received email updates as parts arrived, repairs were started, etc, so I never felt like I was out of the loop. The quality of work was excellent as well. I'm definitely taking the car here from now on.

Torsten is an honest and excellent mechanic. He restored a 19 year old BMW that would not pass CA smog to a safe and reliable car for my daughter. I could not be more thankful.

Torsten is the new owner of this shop and he's a skilled, honest mechanic who knows the ins and outs of Italian cars like my Alfa and the many Ferraris and Lamborghini that are entrusted to him. As a bona fide German, he's also well versed in German cars, and even the oddballs like a Peugeot 205, Ford Escort Mk1, or other cool cars you'll probably never see outside of a show. I just told my wife the other day "if something ever happens to me, this is where you bring your cars." How's that for an endorsement?

Prestige Autohaus services my 2014 Maserati Quattroporte and I could not ask for a friendlier team of folks. I know that their prices are always fair and they love what they do. They are not here to rip their customers off like many of the other local mechanics (and the dealerships). I could not ask for more fair prices or better people.

Torsten did an amazing job on my Porsche 2007 Cayman S. Maintenance, oil change and solved my run flat tire sensor issue. I would always recommend him.

This location has been taken over by Torsten Brune also of CT Autowerks. I have been bringing my car to him for 2 years to do a mechanical restoration of My 92' Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce. He did his apprenticeship at the largest Alfa dealership in Germany many years ago. I have two other Alfa buddies that use him and we find him knowledgeable and more importantly honest and dependable. You will see Lambos, Ferraris, Fiats, and English cars there. I highly recommend him.

My favorite mechanics, Torsten and Colin, have purchased Prestige Autohaus, just a few steps from their first business, CT Motorwerks. These guys are the best car mechanics I have ever had! Not only do they fix everything on my persnickety Mini Cooper perfectly and on the first try, but they are the most honest businessmen I have the pleasure of knowing. Recently, my Mini's "check engine" light went on and I brought in the car to the new shop. Torsten investigated and identified the problems, which came with a huge price tag for repair. THEN, he told me that this problem had been addressed under a class action settlement, but that my car was technically too old to qualify for reimbursement. He recommended I take it in to the dealer and negotiate to see whether I could do better than I could have under the settlement. I did so and was successful at getting the dealership to pick up almost 50% of the cost of repair. Who does that!? I would have trusted him to fix it and been none the wiser, but he sacrificed his own self-interest and was honest and helpful because he and Colin really care about their customers. I wish I could give more than 5 stars!

PRESTIGE AUTOHAUS IS ALIVE AND WELL AND HAS MOVED ALMOST ACROSS THE STREET TO 1400 CENTRAL RD, BEHIND DORITO VW.

This place is not cheap but it is the highest quality mechanic shop I have ever stepped into. The owner Omer and his wife Micki are nice and always want to attack a problem at its root. Omer was a Mercedes Benz engineer in Germany, then in California like 30 years ago and since has been working on a bunch of european cars. He did a great job on my Maserati and on my Alfa Spider. He actually made the Alfa become a totally different car. Before, I couldn't drive at more than 50 mph, after I do 80! He transformed the engine! I have a lot of respect for the rare few people who take this much pride in quality!
