    I know I have mentioned and recommended Eugenio here and there when people inquire about opinions on where to service their Ferrari.
    After a brief phone call asking him to do a quick fluids change and a quick once over on my car on such short notice I needed to publically thank him for taking such good care of me.
    I need to thank him for keeping my car purrfect and making sure I am never left with a ride home in a tow truck.
    My pregno wife wont dig that.
    Thanks for the recent check-up on my car and giving me the 2 thumbs up, that it's ready to roll with no issues or worries.
    It is a nice feeling not to have to worry about these things leaving you stranded or this light comes or that light comes on.
    After reading so many threads in the other sections of people getting stuck for different reasons
    I am fortunate to have a perfectly running car thanks to Eugenio and www.EugeniosFerrariService.com.

    Rant over, thanks for watching :D :D

    Always good to hear he continues his great work.

    Out of curiosity, what does he have under the tires?

    Shop cloths. His place is so clean that you don't even need a dust cover. Floors don't have oil or anything on them...place is free of clutter always.

    Needless to say, my car is kept in awesome condition.

    If you don't mind me asking, did you pay close to his web site's pricing... or are there extras tacked on? I might take my Spider here, then up the selling price...

    No "Bait & Switch" at Eugenio's. When I am ever in the market for another Ferrari in the future, I will certainly pay more for a Ferrari that was maintained by Eugenio. To me, that's far better than any Ferrari warranty. In fact, I would be more comfortable buying a used Ferrari that was maintained by Eugenio than a new Ferrari with factory warranty. I know people who have not had their cars serviced by Eugenio will think that I have gone over the deep end, but once you have been to the "Ferrari whisperer" you will know what I mean.

    This eugnios ferrari website is very informative.

    I am in need of a major and a clutch coming up here shortly.

    Going to try to get an appointment.
    Been researching the net....he comes highly recommended by so many.

    Looks as though my cars will be going to Eugenios from now on.

    Unfortunately, there are extras.

    Here are some of the extra's forced on me.
    - repaint valve covers
    - touch up work on engine frame
    - repaint rear window trim (looks amazing, like new)
    - refresh battery bullet connectors
    - deal with all error codes
    - repaint sticky steering column
    - leak down test
    - replace all nuts on valve covers
    - complete super detail (minor paint scratches removed and touch up)

    The cost of all these extras = zero, nada, gratis, free

    Also, another extra that was forced on me was to drive the 512TR shop car home today because my car wasn't done yet.

    I love E's bait and switch. :)

    :)
