I have personally bought a car from him back in 99. It was a great looking 88S. that I got for less than 4k. The guy was very stand up and said if anything went wrong with the car he would fix it free of charge. I even got that in writing. I don't know about his shop but he is a very knowledgeable 944 guy with several race cars on his lot and several races under his belt. Actually the only cars I had seen at his shop were 44's. This is my only experience with him but it was a good one.

Taylor,
I don't have any experience with Rylands, but I suggest you give Kerry Singley at NAPA service center a call. Kerry is a local 944 expert and my Dad and I have trusted him with all our P-Cars from small maintenance to race fab. Kerry used to run International Performance center in Roswell and has years of experience with our cars, he does really good work and he's fair on labor. If you head north on Hwy 9 up past the old Milton High school you can't miss it on the left. There will be 944's and other Porsches out front. Could save you some time having to drive over to Marietta...

heres the number

I've had very good luck with German Car Repair in Roswell.

Thats actually who i'm with now. He has done great work on my car, and I have had no problems, but I have been told a few times that I am being overcharged there. I am getting motor mounts replaced soon and NAPA quoted me around $800-$850. Ryland's son, who I go to school with, told me that it could be done for around $500 at his dad's Marietta shop. When he told me that, I was a little sceptical. If I have time this weekend I will get a quote and see for myself.

Ryland and Kerry both know 944's and stand behind their work. I have dealt with both and have no complaints.
