I might be flying down to houston to buy a m3. Before I buy I would like to take it to a shop for a pre-buy inspection. Compression test, head gasket leaks, etc.

Its gonna be a 1400mile, 21hr trip back home, so I need to know the car is pristine condition for the long fun road trip back home.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Ed

I think it stands for Bavarian Hyper Sports, they have advertisements in Bimmer for info.
The owner Joel is a really nice guy and seems to really love building highperformance cars. I would call him in advance and set something up with the owner of the car.

The two shops I've recommended to people are Matthew's Auto www.matthews-auto.com and Bimmer Workshop www.bimmerworkshop.com .

They do pre-delivery inspections for people all the time and they both know their stuff!

If you're going to be around on the 10th, we have an autocross at the Houston Police Academy, you should stop by and say hey!!
