Goin to skool! - SlimKlim - 08-21-2009
I know Jake is already up there, and some of you guys might be, but I'm going up tomorrow morning and I'm pumped. If you're anywhere outdoors tomorrow you might here my damn fighter jet muffler winding down as I get off the highway.
Fun fact, I was riding down Franklin Rd, in Roanoke yesterday morning and saw a bright blue bangalangin WRX STI with a yellow MM sticker on it.

I was just down in the burg on tuesday/wednesday moving my brother & sister in. Man, I miss that place.
also E-Hall is awesome, it doesn't have the same memories as D-Hall but It's nice to see JMU expanding the food choices more and going more international

I heard they put laxatives in the food to keep the students regular? :dunno:
Cant have 14,000 constipated students clogging up the toilets at the same time, think the brown note episode of south park. Complete world destruction.

Wild, I worked down the street at Martin's German Service this past summer on Brambleton ave. I dont remember the trailers, they were probably there, Im just used to seeing them.

Is that a shop you'd recommend? Any honest and/or knowledgeable people there? By the looks of what they usually have for sale.... I assume their labor charges are pretty high? I just wonder where I'd take Jess' car if it ever needed something I couldn't do and wanted to avoid the dealer$$$. And heck, I could just about push her car there from our house if I had to :thumbup: We're just past the county library and post office off of 419.

Haha yep that was me. I was working there at our family shop all week filling in for somebody on vacation. I'm pretty sure I've seen your m3 before because I've only seen a yellow one once or twice here. And I live in the CS area too right off of Brambleton, less than a mile from CS high school.

Wow really cool. I knew a guy that worked there a few years ago too actually. I've never heard anything bad about them either and yea they always have some really nice cars for sale.

Well I wouldn't recommend any shop at all until after you've researched the problem yourself, so you know what they are going to do and why, so if anything suspicious is said you get an instant :evileye: cue.
Out of the shops in roanoke for German cars I would recommend either the Sports car clinic on peter creek, or martins. Their labor rate is $85/hr IIRC. They did a lot of work on the M3 this summer and all of it was great. The employee discount was nice too.
Re: Goin to skool! - ScottyB - 08-22-2009
my dad takes the audis to Martins for some of the maintenance if Duncan Audi isn't cutting him a deal. he thought the techs there were polite and knowledgable, although i imagine the rate is decently high.
