WOW, some pretty solid RMG inputs and I've never even knew about these guys and they are literally a bike ride away from my house (nice!!).

I'll definitely have to synch up with them. Again, love Jerry Woods, but if RMG is getting such rave reviews from fellow 993er's, then I definitely need to try them. Funny name for a shop though...

Maybe he offrers a "Rennlist 993" discount, hahaha!!

If I'm not mistaken, "RMG" stands for Robert M. Grigsby Enterprises - "real mean garage" is a humorous play on his initials; especially since Bob (and the two Dans) are such pleasant people.

The level of knowledge, service and work product that you get from RMG is consistently excellent.

I have been going there for over 4 years.

Go see Bobbie. I started with him in 1980 when he was all alone in the "small shop" and used him for 25 years. Very knowledgeable and great service. If I still lived in CA I'd still be using him.

Another vote for RMG. Bob, Dan and Dan are very knowledgeable, experienced and specialize in Porsche's. Very nice and helpful too.

another vote for RMG - Bob takes the same amount of pride in his work as we take in our cars.

I haven't been to RMG, but I go to Don's Autowerks and they know their stuff as well. Been pretty happy, and they give discounts to PCA members...
