for a service center/repair shop go over to Clearwater (not THAT far from you) you can take it to Van Steel. I had my car flatbedded all the way from Fort Myers to there. It was worth it. Those guys know what they are doing and won't try to sell you a bunch of stuff you don't need. :smash:

Vansteel doesn't really work on C5s. I'd say take it to Roger Whitley.

I have to take mine to Plant City and they are not much better, but that is where I bought the car.
