Ideal car shop

[HiImBrian]

Just thought I'd give this a try. What's everybodys ideal car shop? Like if a new shop opened accross the street from you, what kinda stuff would you want them to supply? Race gas? Nitrus? dyno? etc.

My ideal car should be have everything... spray booth, every tool I could ever need, a lift or two, a AWD dyno, and it would be in my garage.

Good service. There's a place 4-5 blocks from my house that has awesome turnaround and is owned by this awesome guy named Nghia. Every time I go there he fits me in right away, always has my car done in a few hours. They're open late, so if I need something done I don't need to bend over backwards.

Perfect example: Ordered new tires from tirerack.com, had them delivered to said shop. Dropped Anna's lancer off last night at 6pm. 7:45 Nghia calls, tires are done, and btw, you should do the front brakes sometime soon...you want me to do them right now?

Do you mean ideal car shop?

Sorry type-o

What is nitrus?

If a shop opened across the street from me I would want it to have a lot of sound-deadening material. Sandwhiches in the waiting room would be nice too.

Aw come on, this was a somewhat serious question.

I assume your asking cause of the possibility of opening one. You'd just have to go with what the market needs for the area you are getting into. And with an ever changing market, I hope you have a good foundation and bankroll. :D

If you are looking into opening a shop, you should probably choose somewhere in the east-metro for the location since the west is pretty well covered already. You also need to ask yourself what you can bring to the table that the other shops can't. How will you market? What will be your niche?
