Anything north of Columbus Circle is upstate.

i find it hilarious that people consider anywhere north of NYC as "upstate" when NY state goes north for 300+ miles from NYC.

Gotta love the NY sarcasm, lol. I'm in Beacon, NY, about 1.5 hours from Midtown. Looking for a good shop in my area, or just in Dutchess County, further up north is okay - I guess.

I'm in Putnam and drove to Autocouture in NJ. Worth the trip. Checking out the cars in the shop is alone worth the trip.

I only had the required 60k maintenance done there - basically oil and plugs. I'd say they are slightly more expensive but I trusted them more as they work on these cars day in and day out. Younger guys which surprised me (I'm old lol) but very knowledgeable and big M fans/owners.

Give them a ring. Easy to talk to.

Labor cost is higher but the quality of the work is very good.
