    Hi, I am moving to St Louis.

    Open to advice from any locals and would love to meet you guys/gals!

    Questions:
    Where do you get your Ferrari's serviced?
    Best indy?
    Is there a safe place to live near/close to Barnes Jewish Hospital that would allow for 3-4 car parking cheaply (and safely)? Thanks for any advice.

    GLB Motorworks is a good spot for a 328. there are other good shops in STL but that's probably the closest to where you want to be.

    GLB Motorworks, Inc.

    Do you know what neighborhood you'll be living in? house or condo? either way it's tough to find more than a 2 car garage/2 parking spaces. I know STL Motorcars (the local Bentley/Lambo dealer) has been working on a storage location, but not sure where they are on it. you could also try these guys: St. Louis Car Museum & Sales - Storage Services

    Not yet, I haven't moved out there yet. I am leaning toward a rental apartment for the first year near the hospital while I find my footing, then getting something with more space.

    Check out the central west end, older architecture, walking distance to Barns. Also check out Clayton. As for Ferrari service, another well respected shop is Reid Van. Welcome to St. Louis, it's truly a great town, even without the lousy Rams and Stan Kronke

    What happened to Bentley & Maserati of STL? They used to be an authorized F service center in the area. (They serviced my ex-328 and sponsored the track event).

    Joint the Ferrari club in St Louis. You'll meet a bunch of great friendly people.

    they haven't had the Ferrari service franchise for several years and just sold their Maserati dealership.
