Don't forget AMS is local and have some pretty nice packages for the GTR too

We always try to give credit when due even if it is with another company like ours. I would like to personally recommend Midwest Performance Cars in chicago for anyone in the Chicago area who needs service on their bmw, porsche, mercedes, extoics, etc.
The owner is a friend of one of our techs and we recently had the privilege to stop by their shop and look around. All i can say is everything is top notch. They have factory bmw gt1 scan tools and a master certified bmw tech on site for all your service needs. They also have a master Porsche tech and Lamborghini Certified tech. They do any type of service work, from engines to general maintenance. While we were there they were in the middle of building a 996 911 race car for the up and coming season.
The owner and entire team was very nice and helpful, as they let us walk around the shop and check it out. Anyone in the area that needs service please give them a try.

Sounds like Chicago's version of Kelly Moss, just probably not housing as many Ferrari and Porsche Le Mans cars.

mithiral67 · 02-21-2012, 03:16 PM

ha, that ferrari will destroy everything if those numbers are true.
