Moving to San Diego, have some questions.

Gentlemen...
My M6 and I will be moving to San Diego in early August.. just have a couple questions:

Any mod friendly dealers in the area that will be willing to service the car? if not any really good independent shops in the area?

Any good car detailer in the area?

Thank you very much
Max

What part of San Diego? All German Auto is where most of us go here. They're a board sponsor, and if you go there you can get a hell-ride in an S3. Plus, it's close to Stone Brewery. AFA detailers...couldn't say. I do my own, and have been known to do others in exchange for interesting trades.

+1 on All German Auto in Escondido. Those guys are passionate and professional. For mods, I won't go anywhere else. And yeah, I got a "hell ride" from the owner (Martin) driving my M5. Scary sh!t. Gustav posted a video of his own hell ride with Martin when he visited during his USA Tour.

For detailing, I would say this guy did a pretty good job. I wasn't doing cartwheels but I felt like I got my monies worth.

sandiego-autodetail.com, 760 822 6363

Michael Dreebin is the owner and he will no doubt be the guy who actually does your car.
