Default pre-purchase inspection shop recs

Hey all, I'm in the market for an S2k here in the bay area. I thought it'd be great if I could hear from you guys on which shops are recommended for having an S2k evaluated. Any shops from San Francisco down to Milpitas would be preferred. Thanks.

ASP in Daly City

had my s2000 checked out there,

and they found all kinds of things that a dealership wouldn't find!

Joey is the obvious choice if I were in your situation. He's located in South San Francisco.

You can find his info here:

and also in the s2ki Bay Area Automotive Shop Directory:

If i were to purchase another s2000, then I'd have Blacktrax and/or Joey. They specialize and are experts for this car! =) MOST likely you will also end up having them maintain your car as long as u have it. =))

Great. Thanks for the info. These shops sound like the premier places for sure, but does anyone have any experience with the Honda of Dublin dealership mechanics? The car I'm looking at is stored there and the private seller is making it easiest to just get it inspected there or close by. Thus, any nearby shop recommendations would be appreciated as well!
