People in Massachusetts! - Indie Shop Recommendation?

Hey All, just wondering, for those in the Mass area, if you have any indie shops you take your BMW's, Audi's, etc to when it's something you can't do yourself.

Looking for places that are cheaper than the dealer, but obviously reliable.


There may not be a lot of people here from this state, but I just wanted to give it a try anyway.


Thanks!

In Walpole, MA there is a very reputable and reasonably priced shop called Wile Motorsports

If you are in Western MA, I've been going there for many years, and always thought they were straight shooters and reasonable.

Thanks for the suggestion's everyone. I appreciate it!


I ended up finally figuring out the water pump, and it seems that it's been good. I've put 1500 miles on it, and other than after the first/second drive, the coolant hasn't moved, I see no leaks, the the car seems to be running good. *knock on wood*.
