Recomendations for BMW performance/repair shops in the Philadelphia area

As the title states. Relatively new to the Philadelphia area and would love to hear your suggestions regarding the surrounding area's BMW enthusiast performance shops. What are your suggestions or personal experiences.

Im willing to travel as far as Delaware and new jersey to find out!

I haven't done any performance upgrades with these shops. Mostly repairs on my e90 DD.

Bimmerworks in West Chester, PA. Free track inspection if you're a BMWCCA member.

If you're prefer something closer to philadelphia, Helix motorsports. They're BMW/mini cooper only. I've always been happy with their work

Autobahn motorports in Horsham if you need saturday hours.

Highly recommend Thompson BMW. They have a dedicated M service department. They also are mod friendly and I had them install my Wagner intercooler and AA chargepipe.

Are you sure the tech is free? I just called and they said they don't offer any CCA discounts.

Otto's bmw in West Chester will do a free track inspection. Lookup the latest Delaware bmwcca newsletter for their ad.

Bavarian specialties in King of Prussia does great mod/repair/maintenance work.

Yeah, that's what the owner told me and there was no charge for the inspection on the invoice. I had my brake fluid changed to DOT 4 as well so perhaps it was a courtsey?

Thompson BMW. Don’t even bother going anywhere else. I drive there from Northern NJ for everything. Guys there know what they’re doing, especially with M cars. Service department is no nonsense. Very smooth experience.

Do you mind sharing which service advisor you usually work with? On their website they listed Alex M as Dinan contact but I’m not sure he’s the right one for service and inspection. TIA!

TSD Motorsports in Hammonton NJ is the official installer for Kies Motorsports. Any of the new products that you see on Kies videos, TSD can make it happen.

TSD has done a few projects on my car and I’m working with them to plan some more.

I worked with John M and Dan G - also the service dept manager AndI G was so sweet. I had a rear spring break on me a week after my 4 year warranty expired and she agreed to replace both rear springs on the house once I asked nicely.
