Can anyone recommend an non-dealer repair shop for Porsche in the Miami area? Very tired of the bs at The Collection. Thanks.

Hello Fasttimes:

I feel your thoughts about the BS at the collection. Although I must say, due to the economic downturn, they have stopped playing hardball with most* of their customers and have been giving deals better then Champion in pompano!

Anyhow, I had to replace my front bumper and I took it to Countach. They are very near the collection. 111 San Lorenzo Ave, Coral Gables, FL‎ - (305) 443-1468‎

Call and speak to Ali. He helped me out. VERY honest and QUICK !... only quality jobs are done at countach.

PM me should you need any more info.

I don’t think the Collection has changed one bit. Two weeks ago, they wanted over $900 to replace a mass air flow sensor that is $280 from Suncoast and takes less than a half an hour to change out. They were giving $10,000 off on any 08 though.

I have heard good things about European Auto Center off of Galloway and 129th Street. I just stopped by there to check them out and there were a bunch of Porsches and Mercedes in the shop. The owner is Luis and the number is 305-256-4031.
