These guys are the real deal. Good honest work for a good honest price. Many thanks to Ritchie and Nick for taking care of me

They do great work at a decent price, and truly treat you like you matter

Richie is a great mechanic! He is honest, fair and extremely competent, he takes care of our vehicles and I am always happy and confident referring him to my family, friends and clients.

I brought my 1989 Ford diesel van to them. It needed quite a few repairs and it was hard to find a shop in town that would work on it. These guys were great! They were professional and I didnt feel like I got ripped off or that they were adding on any unnecessary work. The prices were on point for sure. I would definitely come back to these guys.

Ritchie was very professional, extremely kind and had my best interest in mind. Normally I find myself very stressed and frustrated with mechanic shops, but not here! I am happy to have been taken care of here and will refer anyone to Specialty Automotive. Thank you!

They srewed me out of $2400 took the car in because the motor was shaking they said it was the motor mount 1200 got that done then they said it was the cooling system got that done water still leaking after that mind you the car was at this shop3 times so after that I call another mechanic it was the coil the whole time do not take your car to this place . Then they said I might have a crack head gasket after.I paid $400 to have the car look at when I first brought it in. bad business.

Richie is not only a great mechanic, but also a wonderful person. He truly cares more for his clients that mechanics are known for. While nobody wants to hear their car needs maintenance or repair, everyone wants to feel safe. Richie not only fixes my car, but he also gives me peace of mind while my family is on the road. Whether raising money for local charities or donating a portion of his business income, Specialty Automotive is a gem in this community!

Really experienced and competent mechanics. Work was done on time. Vehicle was clean. Owner and associates are very friendly.

Richie and his team are always courteous and professional. They are spot on with their diagnosis and offer options on fixes to fit your budget. They kindly give you all the facts and work within your time and budget limits. They never try to upsell anything unnecessary.

Richie is the best mechanic in Northern Nevada! Hes honest. reliable, and pays attention to detail. He can fix anything. Excellent service. I highly recommend!!

A safe place for a female to bring her car and not get taken advantage of or looked down on when trying to mimic the sounds its making. Richie and his team go out of theit way to provide excellent customer service and the sure fix! From a quick oil change to a major issue repair, they do it all for a very fair price.

Richies a great guy! Straight forward a honest to a tie. Really did a great job on my 01 f250. Id recommend him anyday.

Really nice shop, great work, and awesome customer service!

I run a medium size landscaping company and specialty automotive has done a wonderful job keeping our fleet safely on the road. We are very happy with there professionalism and workmanship

Most honest mechanic Ive ever met. Thank you so much for taking care of my car.

I brought my Jeep TJ in for a head gasket and a few other things and Richie and Dustin took great care of me. They fixed several little things that can turn into big problems, washed it and test drove it to make sure everything was good. They go above and beyond for sure!

What a terrific experience. I will definitely be back with other vehicles. These guys were honest, timely, and willing to be helpful.

Honesty, experience, and hard work are a rare combination! Richie and his crew combine these qualities with attention to detail and fast turnaround. I highly recommend Specialty Automotive for professional work and excellent knowledge for all makes and models!!

Thank you Richie and Bruce!

My venerable TJ threw a rod bearing out on 395 while on a road trip. Limped it in to Richie, who evaluated and discussed at length the alternatives. We agreed a new (re-manufactured) engine was the best solution. Two weeks later, as promised, the TJ was ready to go. Most of that time was for waiting on the crate engine to show up, and after that Richie broke records installing it. Top notch service.

Great deal fixing my car 👍 the guys were super nice😋 great prices too!!

Affordable, honest and knowledgable. Virgil was always straightforward with me, would get to the bottom of whatever issue I was having and make sure it get done right. If ever a mistake was made he would make it right. I since moved out of Reno and will truly miss having him as my main mechanic.

The owner Richie is very knowledgeable and honest. Great service at great prices!

This is an honest and talented shop that will take care of your automotive needs!

Dustin and Rich are knowledgeable, courteous, and honest. Hard to find honest mechanics at very affordable and reasonable rates. Highly recommended!

Fair and honest. Good work, with accurate diagnosis

Richie is the best!! Very knowledgeable, hard working and very fair on the pricing.

The techs here are very helpful and really do care. I appreciate Barry, Mike and Virgils assistance on both of our vehicles. They keep us up and running.

One of the best family owned and operated Mechanic Shops in the Sparks/Reno area. Highly recommend him for all you vehicle needs.

Good service, there the one stop mechanic shop.

Quick, quality service from a guy who knows his stuff.

Virgil has been in business for a very long time and knows what he is doing. Its an affordable shop and I dont feel like they are trying to rip me off like most automotive shops.
