    I had the great pleasure of having Todd Cooperider and his trusted assistant Dan spend a week at my house to paint correct/detail 4 of my Ferrari's, and the final results were far better in person than the amazing picture attached.

    A heartfelt thanks again to Todd and Dan for not necessarily bringing my cars back to life, but rather bringing out the paint in ways I've never seen before, or for that matter, even thought possible.

    The only car not in the link is the Bianco Italia GTO which I will add later. The attached cars are my 2010 599 HGTE in TDF, 2011 GTO SA Aperta in Nero Stellato (gold metallic flakes) and the 2011 GTO Rosso Corsa.

    To say the least I would give Todd and his company Esoteric Auto Details a 10/10 and will ALWAYS have him work on any cars I obtain in the future as well!

    Cheers!

    Ha ha...sorry for the delay BUT I could only post the pics AFTER the cars were ready in a proper manner. I still need to get quality pics of the Bianco Italia GTO which in many ways is the best exterior paint in the stable! It was a cloudy day when Todd took the pics so I'll take care of it....soon....which could mean a month or so for me. lol!

    Nice! It really is amazing what a good detailer can do to a car. Now that they're all cleaned up how about bringing that Aperta out to Cars and Coffee or maybe Spring Thaw in Tysons tomorrow ;)

    ROMO,

    Your SA Aperta Spec is truly top shelf. As critical of an eye I have the only minor detail I would have done differently would have been to finish the front & rear cavallino in the same brushed look as the A & C pillars instead of chrome. Not easily impressed but wow.... just wow.

    I really wish I could but I'm traveling to watch the Wizards play in Toronto---perhaps I'll find another time in the not too distant future to visit C&C which I've never attended.

    Todd is based in Ohio and made an exception to work down here for a week since he had four cars to detail/paint correct.

    In my opinion, and often times based on the cost of the Ferrari, it's worth considering taking the car(s) to his 5,000 sq. ft facility and have the cars transported back. :)

    Spectacular cars. I am in awe of the blue color. Nicest 599 collection in the US (and maybe the World).

    Pretty amazing job on the detailing. You probably have almost as much in the detailing as I have in my 575M, but looks like it was worth it. After that, too, it will be very easy to keep them clean.

    Thanks for the kind words, the hospitality, and of course the business. You have a beautiful collection of cars there my friend, and we were very happy to have become part of their history.

    We look forward to seeing you again in the future, and as always, let us know if there's anything we can do to help!
