Way Motor Works

We purchased a rebuilt supercharger for a mini-​cooper in December 2011 from Way Motor Works. The charge for this rebuilt part included an additonal $ 500 that was to be refunded upon return of the damaged part (they call it a CORE). The core was returned to this business in February 2012. We never received a check or a credit to the original credit card for the $ 400 refund. During January 2013, after reviewing all of our credit card statements for 2012, Way Motor Works was contacted multiple times — by phone and email. We spoke with an employee who answers the phone and politely explained the problem. He said he would check their records. He later said the owner (Waylen Hunsucker) did remember the part being returned, missing a clip, and that he had refunded us $ 400. We have asked for a copy of the receipt or cancelled check since we don’t think the refund was ever made. After three months of calling, emailing and even posting a BBB complaint, the only response we get is we refunded the money, we don’t send any confirmation of credit and we don’t have access to any of our credit card records to provide you with proof of the credit.

I know you probably think I’m crazy — giving a car shop 5 stars? Really? But Way deserves it.
Too bad my car came with 3 years/36,000 miles service at the dealer or I could have been going here all along!
From a basic «take care of your Mini» perspective — they are great — absolute experts and fairly priced. Do they have a fancy waiting area? No – but they have free wireless and a chair :) and are done so fast you don’t care. I once sat at the dealer for 20 extra minutes while my «service consultant» dealt with a phone call — my car was ready sitting at the door. I could see it. But only she could have me sign and leave. And if you don’t feel like waiting, you can just walk down the street to the rock climbing gym and have a little fun :)
From a performance perspective — also experts. My husband got me a little tune for the turbo for an anniversary present — couldn’t be more excited! Price was incredibly fair. There is a reason Way does so much work on this front.
I won’t take my Mini anywhere else — they focus on the things that matter — not an image.
Best moment that occurred while I was there — certain large Atlanta dealer that is off 285 called (guess they didn’t realize that everyone these days has caller ID) to inquire as to his prices for various maintenance activities. They know who they need to compete with :) But no way way they can beat Way Motor Works!

I’ve been bringing my ’05 Cooper S to Way for almost two years now. I can honestly say he’s the reason I’m holding onto the car (nearing 80K miles!), I know if something goes wrong I can trust him to fix it at a fair price. He’s also been more than willing to work with my extended warranty company, who can be pretty difficult at times. Way has been helpful with several repairs on my car, including everything from a compressor replacement to oil changes to helping me pick the best/​most economical new tires. I would highly recommend Way Motor Works for all your MINI needs in Atlanta!

I love having the opportunity to give a business FIVE stars, and Way Motor Works deserves all five.
My 2004 MINI Cooper S was ready for its 50K tune-​up. While I was dropping it off, Way casually mentioned that now would be a good opportunity to swap out a pulley if I was interested in an additional 20 horses. The price was reasonable since work was already being done. Way said the mod is one of the least expensive options for obtaining additional horses.
The bump up in power is fantastic! I’m so pleased with the install. My car purrs like a kitten, but moves like a cheetah!
I’m delighted with the service and value I received at WMW. Way and Jason are my new heros! I will certainly return the next time my MINI needs any kind of service.

During a spread of rainy days, my MINI sprung a leak in the roof all along the driver’s side. I was able to get my car in ASAP. Jason and Way not only fixed the problem, they also checked the rest of the car and roof to ensure no other leaks would occur. Price was very reasonable. The guys are extremely professional and friendly. This business is above and beyond in the auto industry.

If you are clueless about BMW’s/Mini’s PLEASE go there!
They LOVE chump$! They claim my radiator has a «terrible leak» and wanted $ 1,600 to replace it. Funny thing is the water level doesn’t drop & the engine coolant gauge does not move above dead center – even on 6 hour drives @ 70+ MPH to Virginia.
Just for shits and giggles I decided to price this job elsewhere: Pep Boys [and they’re HIGH!]: $ 450. Way Motor quotes $ 1,000 for the radiator itself. Pep Boys: $ 250. eBay: less than $ 100 Brand New.
Draw your own conclusions…

Way Motor Works is honest, fair, and they KNOW Minis. I had ongoing problems with my MINI that even the dealer couldn’t figure out. Way drove my car around the block, and immediately knew what was wrong. Their service is fast, top-​notch, and fairly priced.
The guys at WMW will go out of their way to take care of you. They truly love MINIs and share our passion for these cars. Way knows how to eke out the best performance from every MINI. Whether it’s repair work or performance mods, follow Way’s advice and you won’t go wrong!

Way at Way Motor Works is the best source for MINI parts, service, and advice as well. Way really knows his MINIs and does excellent work on them.
I have had multiple MINI Coopers worked on by him and his staff and every time they’ve installed a part (exhaust, springs, pulleys, sway bars, etc.) it’s always been the right choice for that car.
WMW’s on-​site installs at MINI-​related events like AMVIV in Las Vegas is great! You can have your car in and out in a very reasonable amount of time.
If you’re not in the Atlanta area (I live in CA), but need parts,
is really easy to navigate and order from, and parts arrive pretty quickly.
Don’t hesitate to bring your MINI to WMW. You can’t go wrong!
