Cars are vain and sensitive; they care about how they look and want their owners to feel proud driving them, even if it's through an inconveniently placed fruit stand. Boost your speedster's self-esteem with today's Groupon: for $32, you get an oil change, a tire rotation, wiper blades, and a safety check from Car-X Auto Service (a $99 value). This Groupon can be redeemed at 18 Car-X locations in the greater St. Louis area.

Car-X Auto Service stirs wagons out of winter's hibernation with an array of alleviating automotive services. Pour your car a refreshing 5-quart glass of oil change (a $29 value, with synthetic or semi-synthetic oils available at an additional charge), revolve your ride's rubbers with a tire rotation (a $20 value), and switch blades with windshield-wiper replacements (a $30 value). Pampered vehicles finish their spa day with a full safety check (a $20 value), a belts-to-battery inspection that ensures roadsters are well in line and not secretly using your credit card to order a diamond-studded grille like all the rapping cars have.

With more than 175 locations nationwide and more than 35 years in the business, Car-X Auto Service has afforded itself a spot on the top level of the parking garage of quality car care and customer service. Unlike other auto-service shops, Car-X won't make your car feel uncomfortable by asking it to cough while a mechanic cradles its undercarriage. Get your Groupon and give your car a spirited spring check-up at Car-X.
