Our Affordable & Reliable Automotive Shop in Clarkrange, TN
At Inspired Automotive & Performance, we are driven by a deep passion for cars and a commitment to offering exceptional service and quality craftsmanship. Our journey began when Clint and Kayla, after years of working in different fields, decided to take the leap and fulfill their dream of owning their own automotive shop. With over 20 years of combined experience, we’ve built a business rooted in trust, integrity, and a focus on customer satisfaction.
Our Story
Clint’s journey into the automotive world began in high school, where his love for performance cars started to take shape. After years of working in various roles within the automotive industry, including stints at Chevrolet and Ford, Clint and Kayla decided to make their dream of owning an automotive shop a reality. After a life-changing decision in 2021, they sold their home in Florida and traveled across the country in search of the perfect location for their business. It was in Clarkrange, Tennessee, that they found their home and started Inspired Automotive & Performance.
Their commitment to excellence extends beyond just repair and maintenance. Clint, Kayla, and their team are passionate about building lasting relationships with their customers by offering high-quality services and personalized care. They understand the importance of making every customer feel valued, whether it’s a routine oil change or a custom performance build.
