If he's that good and has that kind of experience he can write his own
ticket at just about any Porsche/Audi/VW dealer.  I've yet to see one
dealer in my area that wasn't actively recruiting experience techs.  The
dealerships are cutting the dead wood and only want experienced techs who
can pump out the work.  About a year ago a friend of mine sold his
lucrative repair business to 3 of his techs, he is a great
Porsche/VW/Audi man, a large Porsche/Audi dealer kept making him offers
until they arrived at a package that he would have been nuts to refuse.
His son (Ford man) went to work at a Ford dealer as a service writer,
also bringing in alot more money than he did working with the old man.

Location is important, there was a Qlister a while back who had a repair
shop between Phoenix and Tucson.  99% of his business was Japanese cars,
his Audi was the only type 44 he know of within a 200 mile radius.  He
also did all the VW's in town...all 3 of them if I recall correctly.
