Our Story
Performance Automotive, nestled in the heart of La Grange, KY, is more than just an auto repair shop; it’s a vision brought to life by Eric Jones. Back in November 2018, Eric kickstarted this venture as a part-time gig. Fast forward to April 2022, we took the plunge into full-time operations and haven’t looked back since. We’re all about growth, excellence, and a touch of personal flair in everything we do.

Steadfast and True: Our Ownership Journey

Meet Eric Jones: From Auto Enthusiast to Auto Expert
Eric’s journey into the auto repair world is a story of turning adversity into opportunity. It all began at 18, in a tire shop, where he was hit with a hefty and confusing repair list. That experience, marked by vulnerability and a pushy sales approach, sparked a determination in him. He vowed never to feel that helpless again, leading him to tinker with his own car. What started as a hobby of modifying cars eventually steered him into a fulfilling career in auto repair.
The Team That Makes It Happen
At Performance Automotive, we’re proud of our crew. Steven, our service writer, shares a similar backstory to Eric’s. He’s a family man with a passion for cars, balancing his professional expertise with the joys of a lively household of four kids. Then we’ve got Brock and John, our skilled technicians. These guys live the free and easy life, dedicating their time and energy to keeping your cars in tip-top shape.
