I don t know about the negative reviews, but my experience was wonderful. I first called to see if they had the mugen taillights available, not only the person I spoke to was very professional but to my luck, they had only 6 left in stock.I quickly purchased the taillights, literally the next day they shipped out the item..informed me through text and email. I was very surprised..I got my taillights less than a week..and of course they were authentic.I would definitely definitely do business with them again.Thank you King Motorsports, you guys are effin great !!!!!!!

Very simple and spacious waiting/show room. This is my first time here and the first impression is great. It was almost like a dream come true to see so many Mugen parts in one place and on their featured car.

I thought so highly of Mike before this. I was one the people who got to buy the limited Mugen watch few months back. Paid within the minute and received a receipt. After that, total silence. I'm kind of patient with these things so I let time pass as it was going to ship "later". Today I emailed Garrett asking for ETA. I received a short email saying they're sold out. I didn't understand what he was talking about so I called them (from Sweden mind you) to tell them I'm not asking to buy another one, I just want to know what's going on with my order. Mike answers the phone and pretty much immediately after me asking the question (honestly politely), he goes I'm sorry but UPS lost the shipment. I still didn't get it so I asked why nobody had notified the customers, thinking all watches were lost.Mike just said "you were notified today in your correspondence with Garrett". I still didn't get what he was on about so I told him I haven't received any emails after the receipt. Garrett had not told me anything about anything going missing. Confused I asked if all watches went missing before arriving to King, thinking this was a problem from Casio to King. Then he goes, no your watch is missing. Shocked, I asked how he knew who I even was. I hadn't given him any order number or name. He said he knows about my correspondence with Garrett. Remember Garrett hadn't even told me my watch is gone when I asked for ETA.Still shocked, I asked why I haven't been given any updates or even a shipping id he goes very apathetic "well sorry". Then he goes "well we don't have more watches so I will refund your money". I told him that at this point I don't care about the money or the watch, I'm just stunned that King would act so uninformative and apathetic about this. I asked when they found out it was lost. Mike wouldn't give me an answer. I said ok could you please send me the tracking id, I'd like to contact UPS myself. He then goes "that's not the issue we're discussing here". Wow, serious? So a limited edition watch that I paid for 4 months ago disappears with no customer notice and no tracking id and that's not what we're discussing here?And then he goes, this conversation needs to end. And he hangs up the phone. Oh mighty King Motorsports, really? I've been a fan forever and you broke my heart like this..

I purchased something that was shown as in-stock on Dec 2, 2022. Scott Zellner emails me on Dec 13, 2022 saying it was backordered til Feb. I said keep my order open. Months go by, life moves on and I remember I haven t heard a peep on my order status, no email, no calls. You wouldn t believe how hard it is for me to get an update on my order! Scott seemed short and smug in the one occasion where I was able to connect with him.Fast forward to today, Nov 8, 2023!!! Almost a year later I called to have them cancel my order once and for all.I m never going to buy something from these jokers again.By the way you d figure the official NA distributor would know how to pronounce Mugen the correct way.

If I could give negative stars I would. This place sucks. I have placed countless orders only to have them cancelled due to not being in stock. I placed a order for center caps and never got any correspondence about my order. I sent a email asking about the status and was told by Scott they have them in stock but are reserved for those purchasing wheels. He informed me that they would get more and I was added to a waiting list and more would arrive. So today I called and asked if they got more and was informed that they still have them in stock but will not sell them unless you purchase the wheels. So basically they are saying your money isn t good enough unless you spend thousands of dollars and then we will gladly sell you a extra $240 to add on. I must say this very poor business practices and m tec should find another sole authorized dealer. If you like a company that won t sell you a product based on the fact you haven t spent enough money king is for you. King has had a great reputation in the Honda community for decades but it needs to be tarnished at this point. From communication and unfair sales practices, to providing them a payday loan on products they have yet won t sell. Look elsewhere for needs.

I'll just try just ordering my Mugen parts straight from Japan! Nothing seems to be in stock!

What a banging price on the Mugen s2000 exhaust system. The staff at King was super responsive about my order inquiry and were super transparent about ship times. 10/10 would buy again.Service: ExhaustService: Exhaust

I strongly recommend not using this shop. I recently got a new exhaust fabbed and tune on my Honda Civic. My 2 star review is because the final results were high quality, but many other things during the process completely overshadow it. I primarily spoke with Scott and my my bad experience is largely on him. The short version is communication was terrible which led to a blown motor.If you want the long version, here are the reasons:- When I tried to book an appointment, Scott did not take the couple extra minutes on the phone to finish the conversation but instead told me to call back the next day. When I did, the appointment slot was booked and I had to wait another month.- I specifically asked for a 2.5 exhaust fabrication from the turbo back. Scott did not keep track of what I wanted done to the car or attempt to order materials ahead of time. He called me in the middle of fabrication to confirm what I wanted and then ordered a flex pipe. This made the build take 2.5 weeks instead of Scott s original estimate of 2 days.- 2 to 3 weeks ahead of my appointment, I called to make sure my current setup would be adequate for my power goals. Scott claimed not to know anything about the Garrett turbos I was trying to compare and didn t consult his tuner who could have easily answered my question (I found this out when I finally was allowed to talk to him when picking up the car).- I also requested a base run on the dyno. Scott told me my fueling was all over the place due to my downstream o2 sensor being installed improperly. When I picked up the car the downstream sensor was in my passenger seat. It is only used for emissions and was disabled through Hondata on the original and new tune. The tuner said there was no major issue with the fuel tables on the original tune.- Since Scott refused to allow communication, the tuner pushed my car too hard to try to reach my goal. Because the turbo was too small, he resorted to advancing ignition timing and damaged a piston or rings (haven t torn it apart yet). This wasn t immediately noticeable, but 1 week after the tune my car burned a quart of oil and was blowing blue smoke out of the exhaust. (I tuned the car myself originally. It lasted 2.5 years and 30,000 miles with my tune.)- The only reason this is not a 1 star review is the exhaust is very well done and the final tune (that does not have knock and is not damaging to the car) is very good.Service: Exhaust

Excellent place to get your Honda repaired, very professional and knowledgeable, spent the necessary time to find my issue that another repair shop had mid-diagnosed. All of my Honda business will be here now

I m a big Honda fan based in Chicago. When I took my trip from Chicago to Milwaukee for a weekend trip in 2022, I know that I had to make a stop at King Motorsports. They pretty much the only shop in the entire U.S. that sells (Mugen) merchandise. Although they didn t have any parts for my 9th generation civic, it was worth a stop to checkout their establishments.

Placed an Order in February, Had contact with Steve to clear some Things for my Order. After I didn't Receive any Updates for months, I wrote several Mails and got no Response. Checked my PayPal and they sent me a refund without noticing me that my Order got cancelled. Great Job Guys, thanks for your help.

Took 4 months of my car sitting outside for a head gasket and a couple of valves. They did not fix a bunch of problems even though i told them from the start that I was willing to pay for whatever services or parts were required. Then gave almost no input or feedback about advancing the build. Very short and almost rude over the phone. Gladly paid for the services they provided but very disappointed in the overall experience especially since they have such a good reputation. Definitely going to find somewhere else to give my money in the future.

This is the Mecca for Honda owners. The staff is super knowledgeable, and, most of all, friendly. I ve had three different Honda s serviced here and they do excellent work, often under budget and ahead of allotted time. I am impressed each time I go by the vehicles on display and the stories each employee can HUMBLY share. This is a place that won t look down on your budget and wants to give you the most for your performance dollar, I highly recommend!(On a side note: RIP Dyno Days!)

Scott and King Motorsports are a true definition of a world class business. I was passing through town and decided to visit their facility. Upon entering the showroom I was greeted by Scott. He was very friendly and he explained the history of their business. After speaking for a few minutes, I can tell Scott truly cares for his customers and their satisfaction. If I am shopping for any parts, King Motorsports will be my main contact.

Worked with King Motorsports Unlimited on replacing/upgrading the clutch, flywheel and clutch master cylinder on a 2007 Honda Civic Si. The communication, timeliness and quality of work were all top notch. I highly recommend them for their knowledge of Honda & Acura vehicles and will be going back for additional performance upgrades. Thank you.Services: Transmission, Steering & suspension repair, Wheel alignment

I had both my 2017 Honda Civics tuned here for additional horsepower! WOW to say the least. Let me tell you, if your even thinking about spending the money to get it done , don't! You will be amazed at the performance you will have. Thanks to Honda Pro Jason for referring me to this place. I definitely recommend this place to everyone.

Well brought my Acura legend in for it burning coolant they told me all it was, was just a bad thermostat and coolant had me replace all that. $500 later drove the car for maybe a hour if that was burning just as much coolant when I brought the car in I told them the head gasket was most likely shot and they told me I'm wrong not at all.. Yeah scammed me out of $500 can't say I'd trust their judgment when asking what's wrong with your vehicle ..... not happy.....

Fantastic place to take your Honda. They can get rare and hard to find parts from Japan. Fantastic customer service. Awesome staff. If you drive a lowered vehicle be very careful, the road to get to Kings are aweful.

There have been a few times that they havent had the item ived ordered but always have the manufacturer send it directly to me. There fast with responses and will always be straight up with you. Prices compared to many other places are amazing as well.

Had my 08 si in for a strange noise. They found crank pulley was bad. Had some other work done as well while it was there. Great price for the work. Best place for your Honda/Acura.

Great service, great people, and the greatest wealth of knowledge. Authentic and genuinely helpful no matter what. They go above and beyond and would recommend them to anyone looking for tuning or any other auto service/parts.

I got a reflash on my Civic and everything went great. Everyone I spoke to was friendly and knowledgeable. The car performs much better and fuel economy has actually improved!

I placed an order months and months ago. I received ONE email saying that the part was no longer available. (Completely understandable)I have replied many times and have never received another. I placed my order May 5th and received the first email on May 8th. Nothing since then. Covid or not, you can reply to an email.

Friendly, professional staff that can handle everything from routine oil changes to dyno tuning to assembling a bona fide race car. The facility is clean with a well-lit and comfortable waiting area. Considered somewhat of a Mecca for Honda/Acura fans, King Motorsports also hosts annual events for enthusiasts that is family friendly and fun. Recommended!

Tried to get work done on my car at this place since they seem knowledgeable and reputable but I gave up after a year of getting spun in circles on the phone and via email by the owner.

Better rates than Honda or Acura dealerships. Excellent service, experience, and heritage. Had them do a OEM spoiler install on an Acura, looks great.
