BTW, Sean, keep your driving record spotless. No moving violations, no DUI, nothing. Overpay parking meters. |

Sean, if you want to wrench at a dealer (BTW, me thinks Shelton was advertising two weeks ago) become the best technician you can with ASE training and learn all about Bosch engine management. Learn the theories behind system design. Learn to use an oscilloscope properly (this is rare indeed). Now send out resumes, make follow up calls. Be persistent, not pesky. Be professional. Look for opportunities with dealers who participate in Challenge, they're always looking for weekend crew who know what they're doing.
Like Tom states, you become authorized with dealer training once you get the job.
Good luck.

authorized only work for dealers and Ferrari spa, once you leave them you are then called an experienced ferrari mechanic, which any wrench could call themselves if they wanted too |

This is a serious question.
For all you making a living working on Ferrari's, and other high end auto's, how do you become a Ferrari mechanic. Is there a difference between people who call themselves "authorized" and those that just run high end service shops? Did you go to a trade school to get started in this business and start out working on normal cars?
Thanks
