Hey,

I'm going to need to do my 3800 miles service soon. Stevens Creek Honda is near my home. Are they any good. Also, what's the cost for the 3800 miles service?

I HIGHLY recommend you pass on Steven's Creek Honda, I know someone that works there and have heard bad things. They're Honda dealer rating is quite low. I would however Highly recommend going to Larry Hopkins for your service. They are good people, excelent service and they have a shuttle service to take you to work/home. I have no idea what the cost is. Is there a 3,800 mile service?

thx, actually it more like 3750 miles or something like that. I need to check the manual to make sure. Well, it's the first service.

I would avoid Stevens Creek Honda even if its the only dealership in 100 miles. (If you do a search on the board, I think there were MANY negative comments about SCH.
Try Los Gatos, they take care of S2000 owners very well!

i've had nothing but good things to say about larry hopkins honda's SERVICE dept. (NOT their sales). Go to Elena (the first office) and tell her Yogi w/the black s2000 sent you.

I've had good luck with Hopkins and Anderson. Anderson will give you a rental car if you leave it overnight. Ask them not to wash your car. They scratched my rear window. Otherwise, service was fine at either dealership.

How old do you have to be? 25?
25 if you come in off the street.
21 if you are sponsered by a company (your's or the Honda dealer). All I had to do is walk in with my corporate ID and I was off. That was when I was 24. I'm getting old now. 27 last Wed.

Now if you go through Enterprise, like Anderson does, it is 21 for anyone. Enterprise will let you upgrade for $15 per day to the lux. models. I got a Saab 95. They had a C70 and some midgrade MB also.

Just a note about Steven's Creek Honda. I bought my car from them (not a bad experience, but screwed me on the trade), but I received a letter from them today for my 7500 mile service (I changed my own oil at 7500 miles, thank you.. this was 6000 miles ago).. The thing that cofused me was it was for the 7500 mile service on my 2000 S-Type. I didnt realize I had a Jaguar, I thought it was a Honda.
