Repasi Motorwerks earned another unprompted community endorsement in January 2026, this time on Reddit's r/porsche911—one of the platform's largest Porsche communities. User RiceAndBeanie posted a detailed shop shoutout after picking up their 997 following a standard major service and exhaust installation.
The post is notable for its specificity: the customer named James and Alex directly, described the communication quality in detail, and highlighted the "book report" documentation returned with the car. This is the kind of organic community testimony that no marketing budget can manufacture.
The r/porsche911 thread illustrates how Repasi Motorwerks has expanded its reputation beyond the niche CGT community into the broader 911 ownership world. While the shop is internationally known for Carrera GT expertise, day-to-day work on Porsche 911 models—993, 996, 997, 991—represents a significant and growing portion of the business.
The customer's experience followed the pattern Repasi Motorwerks has built its reputation on: proactive communication before the job began, updates while work was progressing, zero upsell pressure, and thorough documentation at pickup. The "book report" reference—Repasi's detailed written record of everything inspected and addressed—is a hallmark of the shop that customers consistently mention.
A follow-up comment in the thread noted that Jimmy is trusted with $2 million Carrera GTs by owners nationwide—connecting the 997 service to the broader specialist reputation. Repasi Motorwerks' own account replied to thank the commenter, showing active community engagement.
Every single part of the experience was positive. Great communication, both ahead of time and while work was progressing. No pressure for extras, honest feedback, answered at least a few probably dumb questions. Flexible timing, as well. The book report back on the car is safely nestled in the binder now. A+ experience all around.
— As featured in Reddit r/porsche911
We focus on being honest, transparent, communicative, and most importantly putting our clients first. It's simple, but feedback from our clients has been that operating under those basic principles is becoming increasingly rare.
Whether a car comes in for a major service on a 997 or an engine-out service on a Carrera GT, the same approach applies: communicate clearly, don't create work that doesn't need doing, answer every question without making the owner feel like they're wasting your time, and return the car with thorough documentation of everything that was done. The "book report" isn't extra—it's the baseline.
Being recognized on r/porsche911 matters because that community represents everyday Porsche ownership at scale. It's where 911 owners go for advice, recommendations, and service referrals. Being the shop someone chooses to highlight unprompted—and being named alongside a specific technician—reflects what we work to build with every customer.
For Porsche 911 owners in Connecticut and the surrounding region, this thread provides exactly the information they're looking for: which shop can they trust with their car, and what does the experience actually look like? The customer's description—flexible timing, honest feedback, zero pressure, thorough documentation—addresses the specific anxieties that 911 owners bring to any service decision.
For the Repasi Motorwerks team, community recognition of specific technicians by name (James and Alex) reflects the personal, transparent approach that defines how we work. When customers leave knowing who touched their car and what was done, they become ambassadors rather than just customers.
The r/porsche911 shop shoutout extends Repasi Motorwerks' documented community reputation from CGT forums and Reddit's r/Porsche to the broader 911 ownership community. Each independent endorsement across different platforms and communities reinforces that the shop's approach—honest, communicative, thorough—delivers consistently, regardless of which Porsche is on the lift.
