I think it's kinda dumb to say "I only want an import shop because I have a honda"

There are plenty of shops that do work on both import and domestic, and they do outstanding jobs on both.

I'd actually go out on a limb and say the ones that do both , and do them both correctly are a better shop than one who focus on only 1 thing like Honda's etc

aight thats ppl. got some help so far. And the reason i want an import shop compared to shop that works on domestic and imports because from what i've seen and use to (keep in mind im from md and they might do things differently up there) is that the work is different from imports to domestics and when you have a shop who works on both you can get someone thats either really good at workin on domestics or really good with imports and who know who will be workin on your car. i'd much rather go somewhere where the ppl have experience and knowledge about imports. 4 cylinders are def different thank 8 cylinders.
