Sage Auto Studios: Crafting Automotive Excellence

Where Passion Meets Precision and Every Detail Matters

In the bustling world of automotive care, Sage Auto Studios emerges as a beacon of excellence, redefining the standards of service and craftsmanship. Founded in 2016 by Alex Nodel, then Wyatt Misztak partnered in 2018, followed by the partnership of Matt Ancona in 2020. Sage Auto Studios embodies a passion for cars and a commitment to unparalleled customer satisfaction.

Sage Auto Studios is Xpel certified, a testament to their dedication to quality. Xpel, one of the only products left in a sea of foreign products that is USA-made in Texas since 1999, is renowned for its superior paint protection film. Having won awards from Xpel, Sage Auto Studios ranks among the top 20 shops in the USA and holds the prestigious title of the top shop with Xpel in the Eastern United States and is the top shop in Florida.

Beyond paint protection film, Sage Auto Studios offers a plethora of auto styling services, ensuring every aspect of a customer's vehicle receives meticulous attention. From caliper wraps to headlight and window tinting, powder coating to full-body color wraps, lettering to branded wraps, aftermarket kits to custom stripes. Sage Auto Studios is a one-stop destination for automotive customization.

Their expertise extends to full-service car detailing, both interior and exterior, ensuring every vehicle leaves their studio looking pristine. With specialized window tint recommended by the Skin Cancer Foundation, Sage Auto Studios provides protection against harmful UV rays and heat, ensuring customers can enjoy both style and safety. The special thing about this film is that it is clear; it does not have to be a dark tint on your windows.

Located in Sarasota on Clark Road and in Lakewood Ranch off Lena Road, Sage Auto Studios caters primarily to sports cars, rare cars, classics, and exotics, but they treat all daily cars with the same intention. The vinyl shop is also off of Lena Road. Each of the three partners brings unique expertise to the table – Matt is the operations director, Wyatt is the director of film and an education expert, having achieved 4th place in national competitions for his skills, while Alex manages client communication and marketing.

Sage Auto Studios' mission is to prioritize customer care and treat each car as if it were their own. From the moment a car is dropped off at their shop, customers receive regular updates, including photos and videos of work in progress. With 26 employees maintaining a 90% retention rate, Sage Auto Studios fosters a supportive work environment, offering bank holidays, a 401K program, and financial education to its staff. The team feels more like family, attending one another's special life events like birthday parties, weddings, and more.

In addition to their commitment to excellence, Sage Auto Studios is deeply ingrained in the community, participating in events like Cars and Coffee and Ferraris on the Circle at St Armand's. They contribute to charitable causes such as Flight To The North Pole, Seeing Eye Dogs, and Take Stock in Kids, and offer discounts to first responders and military personnel.

But Sage Auto Studios goes beyond mere automotive care – they empower car enthusiasts with knowledge through educational sessions with car clubs like the Corvette Club, Ferrari Club, and Jeep Club. Alex expresses gratitude to all team members, acknowledging their contributions to Sage's success. He mentions Alec Paris Photography for all his help with social media and his incredible photography. He also recognizes the continuous support of their families from the business's early years to now.

Sage Auto Studios isn't just a place for automotive care – it's a destination where passion meets expertise, community meets compassion, and cars are treated with the utmost care and respect. Come to one of the shops to see what it is all about with their open-door policy.
