Eastside Motoring

i was interested in doing some work to spice my car up and I went to some boston area shops, i ended up finding this place on the net, and glad i did. I had an idea what i wanted and they helped me out, and without pressure. at some other places, i felt pressured at times, but not here. the pricing was good, and I bought some wheels. They came in pretty quick, while the car was there i ended up getting an ipod integration and window tint, they ended up giving me a pkg deal which was cool too. check them out

Pros: professional,honest people, no sales pressure, easy going

I want to tell everyone how eastside helped me out. BMW wanted a few grand to put in new brakes. Eastside hooked me up with great pads and rotors that will keep dust down and that look great. This was a lot less then bmw and made my car and rims look great!
Thanks again guys!

Pros: great products

my first time coming to this place i was impressed by their pricing, we did a tint / wheel / tire / Xenon HID Conversion Package on my car and i am very happy. i usually dont go out of my way to write a review, but these guys earned it, 5 STARS.

Def recomended, great experience compared to other simillar shops, they made my experience very smooth and easy.

Pros: good priced stuff, good service, easy to work with

These guys definitely know their stuff. They had a better price on a lot of merchandise I was looking for, and are now my official parts source. I'm tired of going to other places and getting ripped off. The owner is also a very nice guy, and stands behind his and his contractors work 100%. I had a problem with something they subbed out, and he made sure it was taken care of.

Pros: Pricing, knowledgable.

Cons: Haven't found any yet...

Pending financial payment for part and service refunds, Eastside Motoring has lived up to its promised satisfaction. The owner is personally taking responsibility for the quality issues related with his contractors work.

i really think the negative reviews on this site about these guys are totally bogus- Im not trying to take sides, but as a honest person, and customer, i really cant say anything bad about them. I know every business has its unhappy customers, but it only seems that all the bad reviews are written by the same person, i dont understand it. Well I highly RECOMEND EASTSIDE MOTORING to anyone, and i guess youll have to just check this place out for yourself if u dont believe it.

Pros: GOOD PEOPLE, GOOD DEALS, NICE PLACE

Cons: ONE PERSON IS TRYING TO GIVE THEM A BAD NAME, DONT FALL FOR IT

OK to the moron who KNOWS he is cool by going changing my name by one number your a HOTSHIT Just because you probably work at QUALITY body shop and are bad talking this FUC KING SHITHOLE you should really START to INFORM PEOPLE THAT THIS HOLE IS RUN BY RETARDS WHO HAVE NO INTENT OF DOING GOOD WORK. Its called BUYERS BEWARE if you ever went to GRADE SCHOOL you would know this IS NOT PROPER SENTENCE STRUCTURE BUT apparently you didn't. Its funny because all those awards in there window must mean NOTHING??? I don't feel bad for people like MYSELF because IM are going to work at that PILE OF SHITASS shop or picking up trash for the rest of MY life.

I don't feel bad for people like this because you probably are going to work at that body shop or picking up trash for the rest of your life.

Its funny because i googled Eastside in Waltham ma, and came up with these city search reviews. I am a regualar customer there, and i can definetly tell you that ive been treated with nothing but respect in this store, and i dont believe the other reviews listed. I regualry bring my G35 down to them and i always find the best prices over there, and great service too. Dont take my word for it, go check them out, you wont be disapointed.

Pros: Good service, polite, great prices, they call me back when i need something

Cons: none, exept Some people try to write bad reviews, to give them a bad name, i dont believe it

I ordered some parts for my wheels and had this hole install them. What a mistake - I now got upwards of $100 of mechanic problems b/c they did not install right. Not recommended at all - save yourself a headache and go somewhere that knows what they're doing.

Pros: umm...they show you WHAT NOT TO DO TO YOUR WHEELS

Cons: Sadly a chimp could put parts in better

These people are con artist frauds. They refer you to a "great reputable auto body" who's service is beyond horrible. When you inform them of a problem, they lie to you about what happened and make themselves unavailable to answer or make amends to the problem. Avoid this so called "Performance Shop" - who isn't even listed in the business borough despite them supposedly being around for several years.

Pros: Absolutely Nothing

Cons: Everything

i found this Store when i was walking thru the world of wheels car show and one of the guys handed me a flyer. I came in to the shop and they made me whicked comfortable. I ended up buying a set of wheels on the spot, the price was just right. They put the wheels on and even added finishing touches like tire shine and an eastside sticker. I appreciate good service like this and even tipped them. I walked out happy. I recomended this place my friends and would recomend it to anyone who loves cars. A+

Pros: GOOD SERVICE, GOOD PRICE, GOOD PEOPLE

Cons: NONE!

Don't come to this dump, the owner, Lorenzo Alonge, who refuses to give out his last name by the way, will go out of his way to make a quick buck by both lies and deceit. After informing this him that there was a problem with the quality, he dictated my only option was to have another contractor "friend" of his perform work, this after the first contractor had ruined the finish on my car so badly that it would cost more to fix that damage than the original damage. They don't run a good business and if you have any respect for yourself DO NOT come here, there are much better places to go that will treat you and your car with respect. NOTE - I wouldn't even give this dump 1 star, but since the site won't let me post with 0 they got a undeserved freebie.

Pros: close to police department so when you have a problem you can go there

Cons: bad service, deceitful, non informative, do not return calls, do anything for a quick buck

I drive a new 2007 BMW 335i and the guys at Eastside Motoring / Performance were a great help. I wanted to increase power in my car, but had a budget. I am a full time student but do not have extra time or money. . They really took good care of me. When I came into the store, they greeted me- i was surprised! usually when i go into these types of shops, i seem to be constantly ignored.... not this here. I spoke to one of the salesmen and we discussed the options and different routes we could take in "hooking Up'' my car. We agreed on exhaust, a blow-off valve, and hi-flow intake. I was surprised on the pricing they gave me, i thought they might be a bit pricey due to their shiney hi- profile showroom, but i guess not-. When it came time to get the parts installed, i did not have a ride back to school, so they asked me if i wanted a ride, but i said that i'd stay and wait while i do some homework. I waited in their showroom/waiting area and they gave me the remote control to their plasma tv. I fixed myself a hotchocolate, then before i knew it, the car was done and we went on a test drive. They even washed it for me ! Right away i was impressed, and very satisfied. I tipped the mechanic, and iI'm sure to come back to Eastside Motoring - Definetly recomended

Pros: A++ Service - Fantastic Showroom - Excellent Pricing
