I need to take my M5 into the shop. Does anyone have a good suggestion on a good trust worthy shop? Im up at Fort Drum and there isnt a BMW dealer up here. I dont want to take to a dealer anyways as they charge way too much. I know of a couple Indy shops in Syracuse but dont know which one I should take it too.

Thanks

I’d recommend Jason @Blackforest if you can make the drive. Great guy, great shop.

Upstate Imports:[http://www.upstateimports.com/](http://www.upstateimports.com/)

Jeff is the owner of that shop, I’ve only been there a couple times in my sporadic VW ownership but I’ve heard good things about him. He used to have a shop right in Syracuse and then expanded into a really nice facility a little west of there in Baldwinsville. So I’d assume by the way he has grown, he must be doing something right. He specializes in European makes.
