About Boca Autohaus
A specialist shop, not a service counter.
Boca Autohaus Motors has been the European-auto specialist in Boca Raton since 1993 — family-run, unrushed, and built on the reputation we've earned one car at a time.
We opened the doors in 1993 with one idea: that the owners of Mercedes, BMW, Audi, and Porsche cars in South Florida deserved a place that treated their cars the way a dealership should — without charging them like one. Thirty-three years later, that's still the job.
Everything at Boca Autohaus happens by appointment. Every quote is itemized before a wrench moves. Every repair is backed by a 48-month / 48,000-mile parts-and-labor warranty, honored nationwide through our PAC Community membership. None of that is an upsell — it's the baseline.
The shop has grown as the cars have — we've added factory diagnostic platforms (Mercedes XENTRY, BMW ISTA, Audi ODIS, Porsche PIWIS, Land Rover SDD, Jaguar IDS) and expanded the marque list, but the ethos hasn't changed. Bring us the year, make, model, and what it's doing. We'll figure it out.
Boca Autohaus is owned and operated by Rod Canton. Rod's name is on the legal entity (Boca Autohaus Motors LLC), the PAC Community nationwide warranty network card, and every quote that leaves the shop. One owner, one location, one phone number — the same one our long-running customers have been calling for years.
That structure isn't an accident. It's the answer to a complaint we hear constantly from owners coming off dealership service: "I never know who I'm talking to, and the person who quoted me isn't the person who worked on my car." Here, accountability sits in one place. If something needs to be made right, it gets made right — by Rod.

How we work
The details dealerships don't.
A small set of operating rules we've held to since 1993. They're why the same customers keep coming back — and why their kids start coming in when they buy their first European car.
Itemized quotes, every job
Part numbers, labor hours, total. You approve line-by-line. We don't start work before you do.
Free inspections + scans
Multi-point inspections and full computer diagnostics are always free. We don't charge to find out what's wrong.
OEM parts by default
OEM or OE-equivalent on every repair. Part numbers listed on the invoice. No generic no-name parts.

Parts and labor, backed by PAC Community coverage. Longest warranty in the area, standard on every job.

Quick wash after service
Every car leaves clean. Full detail available on request as a separate service — ask when you book.
Honest second opinions
Got a dealership quote you're unsure about? Bring it. We'll inspect it free and tell you what's real vs. what's padding.
