Barnaba Autosport

"One of the best experiences I've ever had with car repairs. Mark was absolutely phenomenal. This was not an inexpensive job, but he made it feel painless. I will bring my car the 1-1/2 to 2 hours of time it takes to get to them any time it needs work. IT'S DEFINITELY WORTH IT!"

"Highly recommend! I had a fantastic experience with Mark in the service department at Barnaba Autosport. They completed a pre-purchase inspection on a 2007 Boxster S for me in a very timely manner, even during a week of lousy winter weather! Very communicative, and patient with all of my questions. He made sure to tell me that our relationship didn't end at the report, but that they would be there with support throughout my Porsche ownership, should I decide to purchase the car. Which I did. :> Thanks so much to Mark and his crew, they were a large part of what made me feel comfortable (as comfortable as one can be in buying a 17-year-old Porsche!) in this purchase."

"I have been meaning to write a review for the incredible experience I had working with Mark and the team at Barnaba for quite some time now but only just got around to doing so. Last year I had them perform a PPI of a 2006 Carrera S that I was looking to purchase. I reached out with a last minute request for them to perform a PPI before I was slated to arrive in Chicago for a work trip the following week (ideally I was hoping to have the results before leaving so I knew whether or not to come prepared to buy!). Needless to say, Barnaba came through and performed the PPI in record time and provided me a TON of fantastic information that gave me an in depth understanding of the true condition of the vehicle including a few items that they caught that would have potentially been a deal breaker for me if I wasn’t able to negotiate the purchase price with the seller related to those issues. I’d also like to note that Mark Greco took the time to jump on a call with me and run through the full PPI report in detail and answer any questions I had about the items that were noted. In the end, I made the leap and purchased the vehicle, and Barnaba was even able to address the identified issues after my purchase before helping to organize shipping to my house in NY. I can’t thank Mark, Jake and the rest of the team enough for helping me get one of my dream cars!"

"In 1979 I was 12 years old. I have no idea how an off the showroom floor 1979 Porsche 911 felt to drive. I do know how my 44 year old 911 drove prior to the engine and transmission rebuild by you guys. This is a totally different beast! All I can say is wow! My 915 gearbox is now unbelievably smooth and accurate, no missing a shift thanks to the Wevo gate shift kit out back. The motor (3.0 enlarged to a 3.2) pulls hard on acceleration and the sound of the SSI’s and GT3 style exhaust is intoxicating. Now when I put it away for the night, I can’t stop thinking about driving it again. I love this car more than ever. Thank you, thank you, thank you!"

"The only downside to having your Porsche serviced at Barnaba is that you want to drive home with several more. Sitting in their customer lounge is like sitting in a dream garage. You’re surrounded by classic 911’s, 924’s, 993’s and other 9-somethings from every decade in various stages of restoration to being ready to go to their new owner. It’s impossible not to take pictures (I’ll post a few here). But while you’re dreaming of your next Porsche, Mark and his team do a fantastic job of taking care of the one you have. I have a 2017 Macan S which I now bring in for all scheduled maintenance. But what really made me a fan is that they helped diagnose and resolve a drivetrain issue that the dealership couldn’t pinpoint and wanted to replace the entire transmission. What could’ve been a major costly repair turned out to be a faulty valve, and Barnaba saved me enough to start my own “Next Porsche Fund.” I am so glad I found these guys. And I can’t say enough about how friendly they are and how honest they are about the work that actually needs to be done. They will sit down with you, pull out an engine diagram, and really help you understand your car. You can even hang out and watch your car while it’s being serviced. It’s also reassuring to know that both Mark and his lead technician both came from the dealership where I purchased mine. Suffice it to say, they know Porsche’s better than anyone. But back to their showroom… I actually find myself looking forward to my next service visits just so I can check out the latest inventory. It’s an ever-evolving Porsche museum!"
