"When we started Performance Automotive back in 1998, we agreed that in order to be successful and happy, we had to not only exceed our customers' expectations with quality work but also with our prices. Happy customers mean happy owners (and happy husbands when we go home each night to our families). That formula has served us well.


"We have regulars from all around the Golden Triangle - but we feel a special responsibility for the MSU family since we are located in their back yard. 


"We treat all of our customers as we would treat our own family - with courtesy and respect.  We listen to their needs and try to communicate in "layman's" terms to be sure they fully understand their options.


"For our student customers, we take an extra measure of time to explain their options and also encourage them to have their parents call us before any work commitment is made.


"We strive to insure that each of our customers has a positive experience with our services"

A Few Of Our Happy Customers ... 
"My daughter, a student at MSU, tried to start her car one morning and nothing happened. She was petrified and didn't know what to do. Fortunately one of her friends recommended Performance Automotive - said that they were good guys and fair.  She called them and they had the vehicle towed to their garage and gave her an estimate for the repairs. She called me - I was skeptical and concerned. I called Performance myself and had a great conversation with Billy and gave him the "go ahead".  They got her car back on the road the same day and were very professional to boot. " JG, Jackson.

"I've been using Performance Automotive for over 10 years to service my family's vehicles. Living in West Point, there are closer alternatives, but I trust Performance. Their prices are fair and they stand behind their work." MC, West Point.

"My son recently blew an engine in his Jeep Cherokee. Fortunately he wasn't traveling home but rather was in Starkville. His older brother used Performance for oil changes, etc. while he was in school; so my son called them to take a look. Not good news. It needed a new engine and radiator. I called Chis myself and discussed the remedies with him. He did a lot of research  and gave me several options. I checked with my local mechanic and Performance's prices were in line. It was less expensive to have the work done in Starkville than to ship the car home, so we went with Performance. I was amazed that they got the work done in less than a week. We are very pleased and feel comfortable that while my son is in school at State, we have a good mechanic available." RK, Hattiesburg
