They are primarily a BMW shop, but one of their mechanics (Artin) has lots of experience with S2000's (he also owns one.) He did a thorough, detailed inspection and his work is top-notch. The car runs like new!

You have a copy of my handwritten work sheet, with annotations by the Billman himself....which constituted my record of service; feel free to post it....as I still haven't bothered to figure out how to post jpgs or pdfs. The list of items is too long to post type in by hand.
We texted extensively before my visit on the Tuesday after Spring Fling, and then I did the work sheet in the hotel the nite before we dropped off the S at 9:30 am. Each item of his texted list had a unit cost, so I had a pretty good idea of the cost. All the extensive work was done by 4 pm when we picked it up. Billman is quite an asset to the S2000 community, He said that he works on one S2000 per day that he's available, and he's booked up more than a month in advance. As I mentioned to Gene, my '03 GPW drives like a new car. It's a love affair all over again
Oh, and Bill even managed to free up my rusted passenger seat track, which the local Honda dealer "could not fix"
It was immobile for at least 5 years.

It was recommended to me when I picked up the car at the shop that my shocks and springs could use replacement. I just decided to bite the bullet and have them install Ohlin coilovers before my West Coast trip. Looks like another rush-hour adventure on the DC Beltway coming up!
Jerry, I will post your Billman invoice, if I can find it in my trash.

It's worth a couple nights in a hotel, David, which is what we did. Rented a car from Enterprise for 24 hours and drove to Montauk Point at the east end of Long Island. For us, it fit in nicely between SP and my college reunion in the Finger Lakes the next weekend, plus a couple family visits en route.
