Highly recommend Dobson Stuttgart for anybody that owns a Porsche. I pulled my car from the dealership after no work being done after 3 days and I figured I would show up here to see if they could get it in.(thankfully somebody had just cancelled their appt when I pulled up) I was quoted around 6k from Porsche for an exhaust repair and they had me in and out in one hour with the problem resolved for free while I was getting an oil change. Thanks Dominic and staff!

The lead tech is excellent, very thorough and knowledgeable. My only concern is there is only one, so if he is not available you probably are not going to get serviced.

Recently purchased my first 911 (997.2) in Feb'21 and wanted to find a reputable specialist shop, in the Seattle area, that I could trust and use for many years to come. My first experience was to install an aftermarket exhaust, and the team ensured that all my needs were met in a very prompt timeframe. I will be trusting Gerber Motorsport to fulfill all my future Porsche servicing needs!
