Reasonable $ for mechanic inspection

Considering trying to have a mechanic go with me for inspection...what should I offer? $50 and a 6pack?

I'd think that's the friend price.
Say it takes 3 hours of the guy's day. He's a mechanic. He probably charges 50-100 an hour.

Shops around here charge $125/hr from the moment they leave the shop until the minute they return to the shop.
