Jerry is the best mechanic I have ever dealt with. However, if you don't have a Saab, you're out of luck. He works by himself in an unmarked two bay garage, and only advertises by word of mouth (and occasional cards under Saab windshield wipers). He replaced my transmission for $1600 parts and labor, that Aamco was going to charge over $2000 for labor alone. Unfortunately, he's also in high demand so getting an immediate spot may be difficult.

We call Jerry the "Saab Nazi" after the "Souop Nazi" on
Seinfeld. He makes a great repair soup at a reasonable
price and once you get by his curt veneer, you'll
appreciate his honesty, integrity, skills, and price.
Highly recommended.

Knows Saabs and BMWs in all respects and will talk to you about any aspect of
maintaining them as long as you seem to understand cars. Is honest and knows
how to treat cars and customers.

Jerry does a great job! He'll always explain the issues and how to do things yourself if you're interested. He will always charge less than the estimate and will do things right the first time. Will definitely recommend him!
