We have recently moved into the area and are looking for different services. One of them is to find an honest and experienced auto repair shop owner. Going to the dealers usually costs twice as much....any recommendations? Thanks!!!

The Autobahn off Anderson Rd (just south of Waters) is the only place I trust with mine. I no longer drive a Jeep but they take care of my Beemer, but they repair all sorts of cars there not just BMW's, they are reasonable and very honest - they will not tally up things that "are soooo urgent to be taken care of NOW" like some places do.

PS. It's not in Odessa. It's 15 minutes from you, however. Straight down Hillsborough, past the Veterans/589 and a left on Anderson Rd, up 2 miles'ish. Worth it if you want a GREAT one. They have a website if you google them.

I have never used the Autobahn but I have heard good things about them. They have been recommended more than once here.

I know this is an old thread but I figured I'd add a shop to the list just in case people are searching and come across this.

Automotivation is in Odessa, just off 54, about 2 miles west of Gunn Hwy. They are located in the West Pasco Industrial Park. The company I work for is also located in the park and all our employees use this shop. VERY honest people (family owned) and good rates for repairs. It is a smaller shop so depending on the size of the job, it can sometimes take a little longer to get your car back compared to a dealer or mega-shop, but a quality job is worth the wait. They are not rushing your car through, they want to make sure the problem is fixed.

I have had alot of work done there over the past few years on all my family's cars, from oil changes or brakes to major engine work and every time it was top notch. I was dealt with professionally and pleasantly which is more than I can say for some of the other shops I have used in the past between Odessa and Citrus Park.

I believe giving credit where credit is due and you really can't go wrong with these guys.
