Vette Shops in Maryland?
I just moved to Maryland from California. I had most of my work done at Corvette Specialties back in Cali but now that I'm on the east coast I'm looking for some good shops that I can trust to work on my car....
I like working on it myself but unfortunately I still don't have a lift! So I can’t do everything myself just yet….

Don't know why anyone would want to move to MD from CA but welcome anyway. For routine service, best place closest to Baltimore would be Koons Chevrolet in White Marsh off I-95 North. Corvette tech there is Herb. If you don't mind a little drive, Sport Chevrolet in Silver Spring in the Auto Park off RT29 south (halfway between Columbia and DC) is where I've been going for the past 9 years. Corvette tech there is Frank - excellent. Feel free to PM me for details or any other questions.

Welcome to Maryland. I’ve had ECS work on my car a few times. They’re definitely the guys to go to for performance work. For smaller routine maintenance type work I’ve heard that Sport Chevrolet is very good, though I’ve not been there.

Welcome. I live in Germantown, Md. I live 15 minutes from Tony's Corvette. Great shop, but I drive 3 1/2 hrs. to ECS (East Coast Supercharging). What does that tell you? Chris, Doug, Mike and the guys do great work and are always available for advice. Some of the best tuners in the US. Just ask anyone who has been there. Great service and will help you out, very patient with people without knowledge. Good luck

Vette Shops in Maryland
Can attest to great service at Sport Chevrolet. They have handled routine maintenance and other work (read mod friendly dealer) since I bought the car there in 2000. Think Frank is one of the best in the area. Can also speak to ECS (see sig). I too took the 2 1/2 drive north to get the performance work done. These guys live their work and probably the best Vette performance shop on the East Coast. And, they are user friendly!! All will take the time to talk you through any questions you have. Really a class act!
