Default Any trusted shops/dealers in Vaughan area?

Just picked up a 08 from the US and need to have the car certified. I'm having bad thoughts about CT doing the RIV inspection and would rather take it to another shop to have the cert done. Anybody suggest a place in the Vaughan area?

There is nothing wrong with CT doing a RIV as many others have used them for that. Actually,the RIV is a simple procedure so no special tech skills needed for that. I wouldn't worry about CT doing it.

It's not the RIV inspection I'm worried about. It's the certification that worries me, cracked rocker panels, incorrect torque on the aluminum rimes etc. Also, CT is the only place you can get the RIV portion completed.

You call my buddy Rob at R&G on Hwy 7 and Islington. He also knows vettes very well, hes owned a couple, in fact, I bought his Z06. He'll definitely be straight forward and honest and might charge you double if you tell him you know me! lol j/k

I believe our friends at Champion can also do a cert for you.
