How much does your shop charge?

vetteeatr · 11-26-2002, 12:12 PM

Just kindan curious as to how much auto shops in the larger city's are charging compared to my little town.

For like the best performance shop around is $50 an hour and that really doesnt seam all that unreasonable.

Just curious as to what body shops and performance along with just normal auto repair places are charging around the country.

The minimum I've seen around here is $60/hr.

The shop i work in charges $85 an hour, other shops around the lower seattle area are between $75-$85 for dealerships and $60 to $80 for independant shops as a general rule (there must always be exceptions).
