5 /5 David Johnson: Especially if you drive a BMW or high-end European car, Itrics is the only place to go. The scene at Itrics most days is a few BMWs, a Porsche or two, a Ferrari, and/or a Lamborghini. Since people with cars that cost more than many peoples homes trust the Itrics with their cars, maybe they really are that good so you dont have to just take my word for it.
Its important to know that "Master Mechanic" isnt some meaningless, self-appointed claim, but an actual certification most mechanics dont have. I learned that from my best friend of 30 years who is also a master mechanic, but closed his shop in Tampa years ago when he moved to Canada. Thats how I first met Boris and the rest of the Itric family, who happen to be among the most genuinely nice and honest people Ive ever met (you can trust their advice to help you prioritize repairs).
I also learned from my friend that the only way to keep any car running perfectly without constantly overspending is to have one mechanic who is the only one to ever touch the car for any reason. That was proven to me many years ago when a $10 oil change for my wifes car ended up costing hundreds of dollars because a careless employee at a discount shop didnt put the oil plug back in right. Things like that just dont happen when, not only is the business owner doing the work, but he is also someone who takes great pride in his work. With Boris, you always get top-notch work and, equally important, you never have to worry about whether youre paying for repairs that arent really necessary.
In any case, when my friend closed his shop, he had been the only one who touched the cars of anyone in my family for decades, so I asked him where we should take our cars going forward. The one place that a lifelong master mechanic felt comfortable letting someone else touch his own cars was Itrics, so my family has been going to there ever since.
