Default New to Raleigh

Hi All, I just moved to Raleigh and would love to connect with other owners. Right now I am looking for a well regarded mechanic to do maintenance and additional work on my AP S2000. I would also love a suggestion of where I can get a few paint chips filled locally. Look forward to seeing you all around!

Welcome to the area. I can't help you on shop references as I live 60 east but there are many members in your neighborhood who can help.

Performance Chassis in Cary is the only place I'll let touch my S. Tell them Brett said hey.

Hi, I just bought my first S2K. A single owner, stock 2005. Love to connect with owners in this area, and would appreciate any mechanic suggestions.

Welcome! I’m in the Winston Salem/Greensboro area. You should join the Performance Car Syndicate group on Facebook as they’re mainly S2000 owners from all over but they have a Spring (Rock the Dragon) and also a Fall (Dragon Fall Run) meet at Tail of the Dragon. There’s also a lot of discussion on here in the Dragon Events forum under Meets and Events. I attend the Cars and Coffee here in this area a few times a year and figure they have a good one there in Raleigh where you can arrange to meet other S2000 owners.

From time to time you’ll spot a few of us Triangle S2000 owners at the Morrisville Cars and Coffee. Welcome to the area!

Any general maintenance, installation, stereo, Soft Tops, etc. I can handle most all of that.

Wrenching on my S for 20 years and others cars for past about 8 years.

If it's over my head I will be up front and honest.

Only looking to keep our babies looking good and running smoothly.

Hope to make the Dragon either in Spring or Fall this year.
