Why Buy New?

There is nothing quite like a new car be it foreign or domestic.  Getting behind the wheel of your brand-new vehicle is a special feeling.  However, that euphoria can quickly turn to financial frustration month-after-month for the next 5 years as you make that car payment.  Have you paid off your current car?

If you are free and clear of vehicle payments in 2018 why not consider keeping it that way and pocket that car-payment money each month or use it for some other household expense.  The first thing to do is assess how much needs to be put into your current ride to keep it road-worthy.  If you believe that cost is far less than a new car payment, then opt. for maintenance instead.

Now, as it pertains to German and domestic vehicle maintenance in the Topeka area, the answer is always A.J.’s Import Garage.  A.J.’s enters the New Year just as they closed the old one, as Topeka’s top spot for import auto repair and maintenance.  Call for an appointment at their 501 S.W. Harrison location at (785) 233-1000.

The Clash of the (German) Titans.

This titanic battle will probably go on forever.  So many people have narrowed down their choice between these two incredible German cars.  One thing is for sure, no matter which one you choose you are making a great decision by looking at these two top German-manufactured vehicles.  After you make the move, maintenance will become an important issue!

Let’s look at two of the high-end models.  The Mercedes C63 is the most expensive car in its class.  It has a great body and a beautiful interior.  Standard features include 19-inch wheels, LED lights, Nappa leather trim, and a panoramic sunroof.  The BMW M3 is $16,000 dollars less, but it is loaded with high-end equipment.  Either one is an impressive choice!

Whatever you decide on, between a BMW or a Mercedes, most people around the Topeka area know whom to trust…A.J.’s Import Garage.  They are Topeka’s main stop for German auto repair and maintenance and have been for decades.  Make an appointment at their 501 S.W. Harrison location by calling (785) 233-1000.

The Beloved Volkswagen Beetle.

Ah yes, it is as much a part of Americana as baseball and basketball.  It may have originated in Germany, but Americans quickly adopted it decades ago.  Although production ceased on the classic Beetle in 2011, many people still drive it and it continues to be extremely popular.

Many special editions have been released, such as the Malibu Barbie New Beetle, that have been a huge hit in this country. United States models include: The Turbo S model which has a 1.8 L turbo with 180 HP, sport suspension, six-speed manual transmission, aluminum interior trim, and bigger wheels and tires.

The Volkswagen, in all of its incarnations, is here to stay and there are plenty of them on the roadways of Topeka.  Whom should we trust for repair and routine maintenance?  That answer is easy!  It is Topeka professional Volkswagen repair shop A.J.’s Import Garage.  For all your Volkswagen maintenance needs call A.J.s at (785) 233-1000.

Keep Trusting in People that You Trust.

It sounds redundant perhaps, but sometimes loyalty can go a long way.  I mean, if a restaurant has a steak dinner special why not give it a try?  There are many things that you can experiment with in daily life, but auto repair from top to bottom is NOT one of them.  Why not go to one place to have your German car repaired?

If a repair shop knows your car under the hood and beyond, shouldn’t you trust them for all of your service work?  Let’s say for example, you drive a BMW, Volkswagen, or Mercedes.  If you have put that much faith and money into where you go for maintenance, then put that same faith into all aspects of your “four-wheeled baby”.

A.J.’s Import Garage has been and continues to be Topeka’s one-stop shop for all of your German car repair needs.  Topeka is not so big that you can’t travel to 501 S.W. Harrison Street to keep your German import in tip top condition under the hood.  Call them for an appointment today at (785) 233-1000.
