I used to use a place called United Import Motors as my primary mechanic in Buffalo. They had done great work for me, until they got bought out by a collision repair chain, and brought in a few new mechanics and manager. Since then, i've been getting screwed left and right.
Anyone have any recommendations on good/trustworthy BMW and VW mechanics in buffalo? I remember something like pinnacle, but i can't remember where they were, or what the name was for sure. There was a post on the old forums about it, but i don't think those forums are around anymore.
Any help would be much appreciated, since i don't want to bend over for dealer pricing, or United Auto at this point.

| Which United Import? If it's the one downtown, have you tried the one that is now located on Sheridan Drive, Williamsville (used to be on Main)? Near Amigone Funeral Home. If it's the one on Sheridan Drive, were you talking to Herb? I haven't used them, but I have purchased some cars from Herb, nice guy.

| It's the one on Sheridan. I don't know Herb. I know Howie, Mikey (no longer there), Jim (no longer there), Trey, and another mechanic.

Yes, Howie not Herb, it's been a while since I've talked to him. Too bad. Sorry I can't help with any other places.

| If you live where Sheridan is convenient you should consider Apex in Clarence Center. Nate does great work. Former chief mechanic at Audi, now running his own show. Very skilled guy.
