Reputable Service Centers in Chicago

Hi All! Was reading an earlier post re oil changes and other routine service issues and the general consensus was to not get raped $700 or $800 by Porsche dealers for routine oil changes! Sounds pretty good to me! Does anyone have any experience with service centers with reasonable prices in and around Chicago, specifically in the city or the Western Suburbs (ie Hinsdale, Westmont, Downers Grove, Lombard, Western Springs, etc). My car is getting delivered tommorow and I can't wait!!

Motor Werks by far does the cheapest work out of all of the Porsche dealers in the area. Haven't had any problems so far.

The BEST Porsche mechanic in the area is Jim Becker, Becker Automotive, in Naperville. Honest, hard working guy that knows these cars inside and out.

BUMP - just moved to the North Shore area of Chicago. Any recommendations on good mod friendly dealerships in the area? I see two in my area (Highland Park and Lincolnwood). Barrington and Westmont may be a bit too far for me but will travel for good service.

Also, any recommendations on local Chicago tuners outside of AMS?

Thanks

I have taken my cars to Goelz Motors in Deerfield (Lake Cook and Waukegan) with great success and have referred many people to them as well. Always a good experience and much cheaper than the dealer with better qualified service.

Another popular North Shore spot is Perfect Power. http://www.perfectpowerinc.com/
