Santa Cruz Auto Repair

The guys at Nate Smith's Optimal Auto are the best! I first took my car to another shop that misdiagnosed several problems before I found Nate's. Nate's was fast, efficient, knowledgeable, and above all honest and trustworthy! It's nice to have a shop that you can trust to do quality work.

The service at Nate's Auto is always excellent. My family has been customers (BMW, Audis) for many years and we always find the pricing very competitive and the service experience extremely professional. They suggest repairs in a timely manner as well. I have brought to their attention recommended repairs from other places that they have deemed unnecessary and excessive, which has saved me money. Thank you Nate's Auto for your support through the years!

Surprisingly quick turnaround on a problem that needed to be fixed in less than 24 hours.

The best BMW shop in Santa Cruz!

I was extremely impressed with Blake. His professionalism and customer service was excellent. The issue with my car was just as he thought and the time to correct from my perspective was quick. I am so glad I was referred!!!

The two most important things you want from your automobile service provider are honesty and competence. Optimal Auto care is absolutely 100% in both areas. I trust Nate and his staff with my BMW even more than the BMW dealer.

Nate, your team & auto care is the best. I would never go any place else!! Jaoquin Menezes

You guys did a great job diagnosing my "check engine" light linking it to an O2 sensor and NOT the cat converters. Passed the smog check!

Excellent service and very friendly staff.
