All,

I just arrived in Tampa from RI.

Any recommendations for shops or dealers in as far as parts/service is concerned?

Also a trustworthy tire shop?

Thanks,
Steve

Steve:

Very close friend has wonderful things to say about http://www.carsandconcepts.com/ He has taken his '97 E36 M3 there for many, many years, and I trust his judgment for a good shop.

Good luck enjoying life in Tampa - it is a beautiful part of the country!

Thanks a bunch! Always a chore to start over in a new town. Find a shop I can trust, looking a houses today, check in to work tomorrow, ugh.

Yessir! He drives up from south St. Petersburg because he likes their work so much! Good luck on all fronts with the new locale.

From the M3 Owner:

Hey buddy here is the link to Cars & Concepts. Once I found them, I didn't really go anywhere else. They are a little on the expensive side, but you definitely get what you pay for. Tell your friend to tell them that Mike with the Yellow M3 sent him.

This is a pic of the owner, Thomas. Matt Hayes (not pictured) is the service manager. They are both awesome/trustworthy people!

Everyone here make it through Debby OK? We are expecting to get some bad weather again around Noon-1pm today. Skyway bridge remains closed. I know some areas got over a foot of rain in the 24 hour period starting yesterday at like 3am or something.

Luckily in FL, 12 in of rain means an inconvenience usually for a day and only in some areas.

Bayshore Blvd got nailed with flooding, and comedy

This picture started with just a photo of the flooded Bayshore Blvd and only the silhouette of what appeared to be a shark. It spread on the Internet pretty damn fast and turned into the attached version.
