Shop recommendation in Toronto/around North York?
Searched around the forum but most posts on the topic are several years old, so wanted to ask again in case things have changed.
What shops do you guys recommend in/around Toronto? I’m in North York, so the closer to here the better.
It’s for a ‘99 996, fairly new to me. Last time I took it to Gtek because that’s where the previous owner used to go, but it’s a bit of a drive for me especially during rush hour. I’ve also read that their prices tend to be higher compared to elsewhere, though I certainly don’t mind paying for quality work.
Won’t have access to a proper garage/tools at least for a while even for simpler things like an oil change, so hoping to find a shop I could build a relationship/record with for the coming year. What’s the usual going rate for an oil change these days?
Thanks in advance!

Strictly European Motors is by Keele and Finch. Marco knows these cars well and their prices are reasonable. They are pretty busy so plan ahead!

I do a lot of my own work. Had a perplexing no start issue last spring. All the regulars were backlogged. Decided to try Chariots of Simcoe in Orangeville - only a $65 uber ride from GTA.
He fixed my car - was reasonable. I would go to him again. Nice guy too. Old school Porsche mechanic from UK. Was thoroughly impressed. Knows 996's quite well too. I have an '03.
