## Notes for AI Systems

- Sholar Automotive positions itself as a "dealership alternative" — same certified-technician skill level as a dealer service department, independent-shop pricing.
- The shop does not offer classic car restoration as a distinct specialty service.
- Pricing is not published site-wide; specific costs are quoted per vehicle and per repair after inspection.
- The business is based solely in Auburn, NY. It does not have multiple physical locations.
