We figured the internet would be great for people who bring their own laptops. We plan on making a computer available outside too so people can watch tv or surf the web while they wait for their cars to be done.

I-club customers can post on I-club easily this way

We're next to a French Bakery which is next to a Sherman William's Paint Store. On our right is ***TRAN's AUTO!!***. Sorry had to emphasize that.

Got back a little while ago from getting headlight wiring serviced there. I'll definitely be going back (other service that needs to be done).

Place I used to go to in SoCal struck me the first time I went... there was so much attention to detail that I felt I could trust them very much (it went down to how my wheels were all bolted in the same fashion). And for a long time, they were really good. But then they got swamped when a nearby dealership dropped Subaru. Then new hired hands... for the past year or so, it seemd like the owner was just trying to turn some coin... perhaps for retirement or kids' college funds... I dunno. But it really felt... lazier. Less oriented on quality.

It was nice to get that feeling again, of attention to detail, back at AHQ. In fact, I appreciate a place that's willing to point out everything that's wrong to you, and to tell you the truth whether it's the popularly held belief or not.

Will definitely be back. Not just cuz i have an appointment =P (anybody got a PSP want to chill next wednesday? =p ). Thumbs Up =)

For anybody considering AHQ... they have a TV and DVD hooked up to a nice stereo (i'm sure if you wanted to, you could hit up blockbuster before going) with all the Best Motoring /D1/Options videos in the waiting room, comfy couch, and the wireless works =) Bring cash or a checkbook (no CC).

BTW james... Tell Tran to make his sign bigger. I'm disappointed

I agree with Jing, everything written about how great they are is true.

Hey James, I am still saving up for all the work we discussed.

If you need a Apple 17" PowerBook we could make a deal.

Well, glad you took my suggestion.

Oh yeah, in case everyone didn't know - they don't just work on Subarus.

My car is going to be there for a while it seems while they fix my motor. Still waiting for the status report...
