CLS 6MT Navi
Hello, anyone know a reputable repair shop, prefer central Austin. I need new struts and a motor mount and do not have the space, tools, skill, etc to work on my car. I had a skilled Acura/Honda mech who worked on the side, but last time did not work out well.
Flamingo Auto is reliable but they wanted more $ than the dealer for some work I had last year. I hope to sell my CLS soon so don't want to spend a lot. thanks.

You might try McDavid Collision Center in NW Austin (address might be Cedar Park) and ask for Chad Beckley (512-258-8114) and he can help you out at rates less than the main Acura dealer. I was able to talk him down on price and I'm sure you can too.
Another shop in Austin is Rebreu, located at Kramer/Lamar intersection, but they are more body/frame but they do have guys who do engine work and priced fair. Ask for Jim and see what he says, overly honest manager and fair, Phone: 512-836-4498
Lastly, here's a site that has a variety of local performance shops you might consider, although mostly geared towards classics, so read the fine print before you call and they laugh at you

South 1st Performance Automotive is a good one I've heard feedback on, but can't speak on many others listed.
good luck

hello
My name is Marlon, and I am moving to Austin from Houston next month due to a new job. im excited, so far I liked what I have seen of Austin. but I dont know anyone. I dont have any friends or family living there so it would be great to meet new friends with a common interest.
if there is anyone there with some free time and want to hang out it would be great. like I said I dont know the city well, and want to meet people. (so far I just know I will be living in the north part of austin.)

anyone up for getting a group together for the Leander Car Show this Sunday 09/01? The meet runs from 11-2, however most people start showing up at 9:00. This event (formerly Cars&Coffee before a dispute split them) is a casual monthly meet held the first Sunday of each month in the Leander Old Town Square. This is extremely well attended by a wide range of cars, old/new, domestic/import and all are welcome.
I'd recommend showing up by 9:00 - 9:30 to get a space as it fills up fast. Good for families, as they usually have live music, food, coffee shops nearby, etc.

There's an HEB close by at the intersection of 2243 and 183 where we have met up in the past to get our group together, then we proceed to the meet so we can park together. If we have some people interested, we can discuss meeting up early.

Nah, it was my dream car in high-school.. so when I got a lil' money from some VMware stock I bought it and put some sleeper mods in for performance and audio sound quality. I've had it about, oh I guess 6-7 years now?

Unfortunately I'll be heading back to College Station for school and whatnot or else I'd attend. It sounds like a lot of fun though! Maybe next time I'll be in town for it!

Im in fort hood area and I would love to meet people with experience working on acuras because I want to do some mods but I really dont trust the shops around here. I wanna drop my car and get different wheels, install inspire fogs and other mods so if anyone is willing to help me or recommend a great place it would be really appreciated just pm me. I would also like to go to car meets that way I can meet up with fellow TL owners and learn from them since ive been a lone wolf I would love to join a pack. 9787616076 text for any suggestions
