Repair/Service: 100,000 mile maint, headgasket

Hourly Rate: $70

Total Cost: $900

Amazingly nice people, the head mechanic and owner ( same guy) worked for honda for a number of years before leaving to start his own (much cheaper, MUCH better) shop. He was able to tell what was wrong with my car in minutes, ( it took the honda dealer about 6 months of continuous breakdowns etc to figure out what was wrong) fixed a couple other things, charged me LESS than what I said I could afford, and undercut Honda's quote by a good 600.
