Default Moving from Indy to Greenville - Honda/Acrua Shop?

I am in the process of moving my family from Indianapolis, IN to Greenville, SC. I have a few fun cars, among them an '03 S2000, a '95 NSX, and an '04 TL. So I will be looking for a good Honda/Acura shop.

Source1 is a great NSX specialist in Cincinnati, OH that services my NSX when needed. In the past, I've had good luck with Acura dealers that had an NSX Master Tech. I'll be looking to get some work done on my S2000 in the next month here in Greenville. And the TL has 175k miles on it, so it will need periodic servicing.

What are the good Acura/Honda specialists in the Greenville/Greer area? Today I drove by a shop called "First Class HALT". I spent some time researching them on line and they get good reviews. Anyone have experience with them?

Thanks in advance for any recommendations.

My next step is to find a house for sale where I can park the cars...

Here's a pic...



The S2000 has 75k miles; the NSX has 125k miles.

Nice looking rides. Sorry, I can't help you with a recommended shop. It's been 10+ years since I lived in Greenville area.

Must be tough moving to Clemson country being a Bama fan.

Fisher's garage is not a specialize Honda/Acura shop but Adam had a S2000 and he's very meticulous. If you make an appointment with them and ask for Adam to work in your car you will be fine

Not at all! Those were two of the best college football games I have seen in a while. I couldn't feel too high after the first or too low after the second.

That's true. Both were great games! Hopefully this year both teams can make a game 3.

I can speak for Adam's work over at Fishers as well. He did a good bit of work to my turbo S2K while I was overseas. Also, depending on the work you need done AV Tuning down in Charleston is great. Anthony did the swap from my King's Performance Turbo to Full-Race plus a bunch of custom fab work.

Thanks. I had decided to use First Class HALT for the fluid baseline. My wife showed yesterday after driving from Indy...in the NSX!! It was a more comfortable car over that distance. I'll bring the S2000 down in a couple of weeks.

Owning an NSX, there is a good chance you've heard of Chin Motorsports. In case you have not, they are a HPDE track day organizer that got their start organizing events for NSX owners. Chin is still close to its roots and is very tight with the community and the factory. The GM has a first-generation NSX and Dr Chin has a new one. If anyone knows the best shop for an NSX, they do. Chin Motorsports is based in central Florida and travels to tracks all over the country. Fortunately for you, the general manager, Mark Hicks, lives about an hour north of Atlanta, so he would know of shops between Greenville and Atlanta.

You can reach out to Mark through ChinTrackDays.com. He is very nice, but expect him to encourage you to bring your car out for a track event (not a bad thing, but not for everyone).
