This is owned by Marvin Weitz and opened in October. Marvin work at the Stevens Creek and Claridges dealership before opening his own shop. Since I know some of the dealership mechanics I checked out Marvin and he checked out. Marvin knows the Porsche people I know.
He had a special for a clutch replacement for $800 for my 1997. Dealer wanted $1,800 and an independent shop $1,400. While the transmission was out for the clutch replacement I also paid extra for the latest engine reseal, oil separator replacement, and fuel filter replacement. My clutch feels like it did 9 years ago when I bought the car.
I have been by his shop a few times to say hi, and Marivn was at the Parts Heaven Swap meet. Tell him Jeff Lopez sent you.
