Default Reliable Mechanics in Pensacola...?

I need to find myself a good, reliable and reasonably price mechanic-- someone I can trust to take care of my car and not rip me off. Anyone have suggestions?

Nothing at the moment, but I'd rather have a number in my phone to call when the time comes than be running around pressed for time.

Well depending on what it is, I can do all the regular maintenance and I have friends I can recommend for big stuff (IE Clutches and other big crap). I owned an S2000 for 5 years (2 actually) and know them inside and out.

yea, the best bet is to find someone that know what they are doing, like silvs2knvb! I did almost all of my own work as well. You can save money and you will also know what is going on through out the whole process. No worrying about people charging you for something you don't need or screwing something up and not saying anything to you.

I totally agree with Nay Nay let silvs2knvb (Jeramiah) do the work for you, he definitely knows the S2000.

I bought the care used, and was told that the RD fluid was changed at 59k-- but it's coming up on 70 and am thinking it would be worth the cost to just get it changed for piece of mind. What do you think?
