Experienced Professional Independant Import Vehicle Mechanics

Apex Specialized Automotive Inc. was formed with the goal of providing its clients with the utmost in professional independent automotive service for their Subaru as well as Domestic and Asian import vehicles.

Through this vision we strive to accomplish some secondary objectives:

  • The elevation of the image of both the automotive technician and the automotive service industry
  • The education of the consumer through exceptional communication and transparency in our processes and procedures
  • Enhanced co-operation between service providers, both independents and dealers
  • Achieving the next level of service capabilities by embracing new technology and developing and teaching advanced level diagnostics

 

Apex Specialized Automotive Inc.’s main business focus is on providing Premium Auto Repair and Service for Subaru Vehicles as well as Japanese import vehicles from manufacturers like Toyota, Lexus, Honda, Acura, Nissan, Infinity, Mazda, and Mitsubishi including right hand drive JDM models. Our strength is in our knowledge of these vehicles in particular, but we are also willing to take clients with other import and domestic makes, as we do have experience in this area also.

Apex was incorporated on July 31, 2009 by myself, Chris Babichuk and Joshua Figley. Between us we have 18 years of Japanese import and another 10 years of general automotive experience. Both of us are ASE Master Technicians -  I am a Red Seal Alberta Automotive Service Technician, Josh is a Red Seal British Columbia Automotive Service Technician and we have many advanced level courses and multiple awards to our names. Before we started Apex I was looking for a new job, but I realized more could be accomplished if I had my own shop and not be tied down to a lot of the old ways of doing things. I partnered with Josh and we formed Apex.
