In Phoenix, AZ, 1st Choice Auto Parts earns a strong overall vibe: frequent praise for Omar’s knowledge, fair-to-best pricing, and a deep European parts selection (BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Volvo). Shoppers note organized stock by brand, parts pulled for you, quick in‑and‑out visits, and creative solutions. Common knocks: occasional long waits, one report of rude treatment and a high quote, shipping delays on a phone order, and a broken‑part refund dispute. Overall, professional staff and value lead, but consistency can vary. Score: 92/100. Best for Euro parts hunters; double‑check lead times and returns.
Owning a 50-year-old car comes with challenges, but Omar and Ronnie made this part of the process easy. We were looking for a power steering gear box, and they worked hard to source the right part for us. They were knowledgeable, incredibly kind, fairly priced, and even took the time to clean the part up before we picked it up.
That level of service is hard to find. As I continue putting my car back together, I know exactly where I’ll be going for future parts. So grateful for businesses like this.
Omar not only confirmed he had the part I needed but went above and beyond to help me find it and get it out. Would recommend this shop to anyone looking for OEM parts. Thanks Omar!!
Omar went above and beyond on helping me out. Took his time to show me the options that fit my vehicle. Gave me a great price and beat the other quotes.
I've been doing business with Omar at 1st Choice for 15 years. He's a solid guy and solid source for most Euro makes & models. Plus he stands behind his parts.
Omar helped me find parts for my Z3 what no other place had them. Has many European car parts available, all organized by brands. Will definitely come back for other parts.
If I can give zero start I will. I was at the business today left my works to request for a part. The lady at the front desk was so professional and very helpful. She called Omar to come and assist me, Omar said he will be there in 5 to 10 minutes. I waited over an hour before he showed up. Finally, he pulled up the item which he said it’s $900. I made a small joke saying what about a discount for keeping me waiting. He told me to leave the office that other people will buy it. And I walked out gently saying ok. The item is over priced I bought the same item on eBay for $370 including shipping. Secondly he was very very rude and very unprofessional. I will not recommend him to attend to anyone going forward.
Called this guy set me up with the parts that I needed for my Volvo after I done looked all over Town and he had exactly what I need with a decent price. I respect he will be getting some more of my business go down to first choice, Auto Parts, and ask for Omar that’s your name on any foreign vehicle he got it.
This place was amazing. Omar was very hospitable and kind. He took the effort to find the part I needed, and was very generous with helping me out. He even let me charge my phone when it died! Thanks to him and his team(:
Omar gave me Great customer service, good price, and is very helpful. I would recommend anyone who needs anything to go by. He will take good care of you
As hot as it is today and not wanting to search for the BMW part anymore today I came upon 1st choice and my gut feeling was to go with the feeling and sure enough not only did they have what I needed , it was in the best shape possible next to NEW .the help I was given as mind blowing and my total overall experience will be remembered for years to come. This guy is going places with this business he has and the perfect attitude to go with it. I recommend to any fellow BMW/ Mercedes owners. This is your dude if ever your needing a part...
Hats off to you OMAR of 1st choice!! Thank you....Junior aquino...BMW X5 owner..

Omar is the man! I came in looking for parts for my Mercedes-Benz, and he made sure I had everything I needed. This place is incredible, with a huge selection of high-quality parts.
I'm truly impressed by Omar's knowledge of all kinds of cars – he really knows his stuff. From now on, I'll be coming here for all my Euro car needs, and I'll be sending all my friends as well. Highly recommend this place!
