About Star Motors Merriam, KS
After seven successful years as a five-star Goodyear store with a primary focus on domestic, Japanese, and Asian cars and trucks, as well as fleet vehicles located in Overland Park, Auto Worlds LLC had the opportunity to purchase Star Motors LTD, one of the largest European automotive repair facilities in the Midwest that has been in business and serving their valued customers for over 40 years.
In March of 2017, we were fortunate enough to have the ability to combine the two businesses under one roof. Our state-of-the-art facility includes a 30 bay air-conditioned shop, a luxurious waiting room with free WI-FI, and a spacious parking lot located just off of I-35. Auto Worlds/Star Motors has a long-standing reputation for excellence in the greater Kansas City Metropolitan area as noted in our five-star reviews.
Our comprehensive knowledge, state-of-the-art equipment, and well-trained and friendly staff allow us to stand out in our field of automotive repair and tire store. Need a used car? Check out our pre-owned inventory to see if we have something that would suit your needs.
We also specialize in European parts sales and have over a quarter-million dollars in inventory for your Mercedes Benz, BMW, Porsche, Audi, Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles.
Since 1977 Star Motors has been there for the people of Merriam. We love what we do, and that basic fact fuels our business. We are dedicated to our customers, and that’s why they stick with us—the best auto repair Merriam has to offer.
Are you ready to experience the best Merriam car service available? Please give us a call or make an appointment here.
