SOME OF THE SHOP PICS

The effort went into the product as to separate you from your money.

When I see spotless surgical like repair shops, I see overhead, which I am being asked to pay for. I just want a place that will get the work done properly.

 

At between 650,000 and 800,000 watches made a year, yes, it is just a watch.

 

That's a very poor attitude.

Experienced owners and professionals would never say that.

Then why buy a Ferrari? Orginization, expertise, cleanliness and ultimate professionalism are part of that Name, why would you settle servicing your car for any less?

 

here, you just lost your case... http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=79064&highlight=FXX+PARTS

 

No, I didn't lose my case. That is a pic of a storage room of some sort. That is not the final assembly area.

 

Yes I know it's a storage room, but as per your logic a company like ferrari shouldn't have a storage room that looks like a DUMP. where's the "cleanliness and organization" ? Also, I've seen cars come from the ferrari factory with hair under the clear coat. where's the hospital-like sterility there ?

 

Hey, nobody's perfect, its just that some shops never try to be. Ferrari does.


McLaren in Woking, England is by far the cleanest factory in the world, it would make any hospital look like a f*&kin dump. I have recent private photos of inside the assembly area, unfortunately I cannot and will not post them for security reasons.

 

LOL!

Which car company again??

STRONGLY AGREE. My mechanics janitorial skills are of little interest to me.

 

Unfortunate for sure, but thanks for sharing the pics. It's always nice to see parts that don't get polished.

 

I understand, as long as you get the job done right. Just don't be ignorant as to the skill and precision of your mechanics. Cleanliness and "janitorial skills" are an indication of your mechanics professional reputation.

 

Not always. If the car works when I get it back, I could care less what the shop looks like.

 

LOL.. How do you know he isn't an experienced owner and professional? He's a highly respected member here, unlike you. He's had a ton of experience with owning Ferraris.

 

Let's not get too carried away...

 

yellow i just realized i have sat in youre car gosh that car is amazing loved mr rapp having it i know youre enjoying it

 

Would I be making these comments if I weren't experienced myself? I have had Ferrari's as well, amongst other "exotic machines". I am simply stating my opinion on this subject as the rest of us. I have seen my share of "shops", and own my own beautiful facility which I work very hard for, to keep the highest standards. My reputation doesn't care for or need your approval.

Unfortunately you don't know me personally, and truly, your ignorant assumptions are unappreciated.

 

can we talk more about clutches and less about cleanliness or lack there of...

 

I'm sure you have some experience with Ferraris but hell, you didn't even know that the Italian stripe on the Challenge Stradales were an option. You thought they all have them.

 

Sorry Dr. Dumb Ass, I call 'em as I see 'em. Hell, someone decided to make you a consultant. That must count for something.

 

Maybe my busy career prevents me from knowing the intricate details of each and every car. Don't punish me for that.

I admit, I am new to this site, but am VERY knowledgeable with Ferrari's, F1 and the like. Moreso than others.

I am much happy to provide my opinion as you are, but there is no need to demean other members who fault on occasion. Your respect is not gained by doing so.

Lets enjoy this wonderful site together.....thanks.

Thank you very much for sharing the pics with us. It's very interesting to see an Enzo like that.

 

It just means I have too much time on my hands and learned way too much about concours and challenge cars.

The parts I made for P4/5 came after I was made a consultant...

 

Peace of mind is the most important asset we shouldn't take for granted. Thanks to all the wonderful mechanics that allow us to enjoy our vehicles as so.

Cheers to that!

 

Can we please continue with this great thread? HELLO, where else can one see an Enzo opened up like that?! And FWIW, some of the BEST shops in the world are "dirty-like"

Back on topic por favor!

 

Some of the best women in the world are "dirty-like" too
