That's the place off of 70 and Hillsborough. Ask for Roshawn he will take care of you
the guys at EC are nice.......on 70 right glock?
I have not used them for service, but they always have some super fly cars out there....
also try CW Performance in Apex, they deal strictly with our cars and that's it.....I go there with both of mine and feel fine about it...no loaners though....
welcome to the area and good luck
also forgot to mention the dealer in Cary is still a 'dealer' and will want to be well paid......but I have gotten
3 cars from them and like my saleman at least.....

Thanks guys, for the quick responses. Both Digital Chassis and Euroclassics are up on Hillsborough Road and fairly close to work (RTP), so I will give them a shot.
Understood on the "dealer" service. I'm sure they'd be happy to give me a "free" or "courtesy" loaner, in conjunction with my planned service. But given the distance to work and a recent dealer experience on this coast (I lived in So. Cal. until 2011 before making the move back east), I think I will give an independent shop a try. I'll let you know how it goes.

Raleigh Area Services
A brief update to this thread for our local guys.
My little C55 had a slight left drift. It's my DD and it was driving me nuts. Took it to Digital Chassis for alignment check. Leith Raleigh had done alignment in May when they replaced some front end bushings under warranty.....turns out their alignment was sloppy. Brad took the time to get everything spot on perfect, took him all of 45 minutes, what a difference!
I also took my new Vette to DC for alignment, same result.
DC is mostly a BMW/Porsche shop, but they service and know our cars plenty well. I was able to talk V12 Benz mods in depth with them, they have modded and built several W211 E55s and W220 V12s.
One final comment, Leith Raleigh on Capital Blvd. has gotten very competitive with their A/B service charges, and they do basic stuff like flush brakes for $99. From my experience their basic services are good, they offer loaners, and work well with aftermarket warranty companies.
That being said, IMO Digital Chassis is the go to place for alignment. I'm going to have them check my E63 alignment next week.

I know there is a Cars & Coffee thread but wanted to get the word out that we're going to try to park together for the October C&C. The idea is park on the northern part of the lower lot: if we can get that row agaisnt the street...across from where the supercar red SL car was last time
