Eh. Everyone was nice, but they charged a lot and detailed my interior which the car really did not need.
Do NOT take your luxury vehicle to Gold Coast Auto Body.

My car was side-swiped last year, and Honda of Downtown Chicago, where I purchased it, suggested that I take it to Gold Coast Autobody. Best decision ever!

“9-1-23: Just left my car for body repair.”
9-1-23: Just left my car for body repair. Very satisfied this far. Crystal clear insurance processing. Friendly staff. 9-19-23: Just picked up my car after repairs. Gold Coast is truly a unique organization! Their communications and updates were precise and consistent throughout the repair process. They negotiated well with the insurance company on my behalf, and the neighbor Enterprise location gave me a free upgrade on a rental car based on their business with Gold Coast: very valuable and convenient (for pickup and return of the rental cars). My car was repaired with great excellence, it was computer-tested after repairs to make sure that all systems work per the manufacturer’s standards, at it was pristinely detailed before delivery. Not even at premium dealerships have I seen such quality, excellent customer service and just pleasant people to deal with. Keep up your excellent work!

“In all honesty the reviews scared me a bit.”
In all honesty the reviews scared me a bit. My car was side-swiped and broken into within a week of ownership. I had to go somewhere and the suburbs were too far to drive in winter with a busted out window. I spoke with Tesla and they suggested going to Gold Coast. I'm extremely happy I did. Carlos is a special person and if you get the chance to work with him you'll be very happy you did. During the whole process he was kind, friendly, and most importantly very communicative. I tend to bombard people with questions and he handled them and my neurotic behavior like a champ. He's a stand-up guy and takes ownership of issues as they arise. No one will be a bigger advocate for your car than Carlos. The repair work itself was very good as to be expected from a Tesla certified establishment. I went back for a few minor things but it really wasn't a problem at all; more me than the work. Once again Carlos took care of me and made sure I left happy. Do not be dissuaded by the reviews here on Google; I do not believe they are indicative of the shop, the people here, or the work they do. Gold Coast cares about your car and they make sure the job is done to your satisfaction. Carlos deserves a raise!

“Great service by very prompt and responsive employees.”
Great service by very prompt and responsive employees. If you own a Tesla they have certified team members who can attend to your car. Offer a variety of services including tinting, detailing, car wash, painting etc. Would highly recommend by making an appointment via the phone prior to visiting in person.

Really great service, walked me through everything, caught many mistakes my insurance had missed, had a dedicated contact that sent updates and answers to any questions. I had my car there for over three weeks after being rear-ended and it came back like new.

Gold Coast Auto Body did a superlative repair on my AudiQ5. There work was immaculate, leaving my car looking brand new. Throughout the process, Gold Coast’s staff was courteous, professional, responsive and great communicators. I could not have asked for more, especially given the end result. Should you find yourself in need of a top notch body shop, go here!
