We Take Performance to the Next Level

About European Motor Gruppe

Houston’s Trusted BMW Specialist & European Auto Service Team

At European Motor Gruppe (EMG), we believe that performance isn’t just about power—it’s about precision, longevity, and trust.

As Houston’s leading BMW specialist and full-service European auto service provider, we deliver dealership-level expertise without the dealership drama.

 

Whether you’re here for routine service or a full custom build, we give your vehicle the expert care it deserves—with honesty, clarity, and zero pressure.

From Dealership Bay to Driver-Focused Shop

Our Origin Story

European Motor Gruppe was founded in 2017 by Mike Quintanilla, a former dealership team leader with over 15 years of BMW factory training and real-world experience.

 

The goal from the beginning was to provide European auto enthusiasts with an exceptional degree of personalized service, in everything from maintenance to mods.

 

Today, EMG has grown into a highly regarded BMW performance shop and trusted European auto service center, known throughout Houston for both our technical expertise and our hands-on, customer-first approach.

Our Mission

At EMG, our mission is simple: do right by the car and the client. That means delivering factory-quality service with integrity—and without upsells. When you bring your vehicle to us, we tell you what it needs, explain why, and give you the knowledge to make the best decision for your goals and budget.

Driven By Our Values

European Motor Gruppe’s customer-focused approach is a product of the values we put into practice every day. We believe that:

Transparency Earns Trust.

No guesswork, no sales scripts—just clear, honest diagnostics.

Whether we’re doing an oil change or an engine build, every detail matters.

We don’t just fix problems—we prevent them.

We put you in the driver’s seat by explaining every recommendation, because informed customers are loyal customers.

Hands-On, Highly Trained, and Factory-Certified

Mike leads our team—BMW factory-trained, ZF transmission certified, and experienced in high-voltage and hybrid systems. But more than credentials, Mike brings passion. He’s not just the owner—he’s in the shop, under the hood, and talking to clients every day.


Everyone on our team shares that same commitment to excellence. 

We specialize in:

BMW M platforms (E46, E92, F80, etc.)

Mercedes, Audi, Volkswagen, Porsche, Bentley, and Rolls-Royce

Gasoline, diesel, and EV/hybrid platforms

Real-world tuning, performance upgrades, and long-term maintenance strategies

Suspension noise and vibration fixes

We use BMW ISTA diagnostic tools—the same ones used at the dealership—allowing us to code modules, run software-level repairs, and troubleshoot the toughest issues with total accuracy.
