I've used King Auto Service, on West St just south of Glenwood Ave, for
a pre-purchase inspection.  (Actually, I had it done when I was selling
my car so I wouldn't be surprised by any defects that a buyer might
find.)  They have several levels of inspection depending on how in-depth
you want to be.  Worked out very well -- I've felt they are quite honest
and extremely knowledgeable.  They probably aren't the cheapest in the
area however -- you have to pay for quality service.

There is also Tao Auto on Capital Blvd (for Hondas).  

These are both independent shops; most of the independent shops in the
area will do pre-purchase inspections.

You could also take the car to Carmax to have it appraised for free. 
That wouldn't be as detailed however.
