Help with name for my new business

We getting close to finalizing a name for my general auto repair with Euro speciality. Here are a few variations of what we are thinking.

"Autobahn Auto Repair"
"Autobahn Auto"
"Autobahn Automotive"

I want people to know we are a repair not a performance so I like the first one. Please feel free to chime in your vote or add your own.

Central Florida Auto Autobahn Automotive Repair Garage
Autobahn Performance Automotive Repair
Performance Autobahn Auto Repair
Autobahn Automotive Speed Performance Auto




Seriously though, including the word Autobahn makes me think of performance.

How about: European Automotive Repair

Im starting to agree about the performance relation of "autobahn"

although "Central Florida Auto Autobahn Automotive Repair Garage" seems like a short to the point name. it would fit nice on a business card.

"Auto Krankenhaus" is German for "Car Hospital". That implies repair without performance tuning, and since everyone in central Florida speaks fluent German, that should get the point across nicely.

Before you get set on a name you need to look up what names are available in your state

Ich bin ein Auto repairer

A factually accurate and fully descriptive pun on John F Kennedy's Ich bin ein Berliner

I believe that "werkstatt" is repairer in German, but given that your garage is in FL, I don't think that this would translate too well ... I think repairer would be better.

As the article states, this phrase template has appeared in a variety of rhetorical contexts in popular culture.

Just a thought ...
