Our Mission

Superior Auto Repair's mission is to create a one-stop car care center in Bradenton for our customers, simply with professional technicians and top-of-the-line technology. We can make your inconvenience or untimely break down "our problem" and in return provide you a positive experience which will leave you feeling good about doing business with us.

In The Beginning...

After 27 years of working his way up through the ranks of local GM dealerships with the last nine years as a Service Manager, Mike Thorp decided to make a leap of faith and take control of his future and the financial security of his family. In 2009, Mike and his family established Superior Auto Repair in a rented, single-bay warehouse-style shop with a small office/customer waiting area. The original goal was to open this small repair facility where he could work one-on-one with customers and provide large Dealership quality at an independent price. As time went on and the customer base grew, a move to a larger, rented space happened in early 2011, but the mission was the same, provide quality maintenance and repair services in a clean, comfortable, friendly environment where customers are treated like a member of the family.

...Where we are today

In 2016, another leap of faith was made by the Thorp family, and a decision was made to build from the ground up a well-planned, centrally located facility with room to grow. On December 19, 2016, we officially opened our new, 12 bay facility with a sunken alignment rack, and even though making a move was challenging, it has been all worth it! The SAR team has grown from 2 to 12. Business is continuing to grow, and long-term relationships are being made each and every day.
