Default Porshce mechanics in Toronto area

I am in Toronto and planning to do an oil change, annual inspection and brake fluid flush for my 02 Boxster when the season starts. I am wondering does anyone has any past experiences with respect to the following shops, goods and bads and certainly welcome for other recommendations. Thank you!

EU Autowerks in Woodbridge

MVS Motors in Markham

I have had great success with Hockley Valley Autosports. The drive is a little bit north (orangeville), but Ian's support is top notch.
He is an old school, customer service oriented, Porsche enthusiast with many years experience in his trade.

I also use Spiro's & Sons in the Beach. Paul and Tom own and service tons of P-cars. They are located on Kingston Rd just east of Victoria Park.

Henry Costa has been good to me: 416-248-9777. I think his shop is called Refined Motors or something like that...

From what I've read on the US sections we have some of the best indy P car people anywhere in North America so i think any of the people mentioned here would be great to visit. I guess it comes down to how close you are to each of these groups. I've been to EU and while Courtney is really good he is a little far for me so I go to Mantis in Oakville (Ernie) but have heard lots of great comments about Brent at Hunter. The great thing about a lot of the independents mentioned here is that for the most part they are supporters of UCR and in the case of EU, Mantis and Hunter - they are also supporters of regional Ontario racing as well so all things equal - I always choose people who give back to the sport or our marque over others.

I have used Bestline for a number of years, and have been very happy with them. Lots to choose from in Toronto.
