    I have been dealing with Rocco (Rocks Auto) since 2001. My 355 is there now for a major service.

    I have not had my car serviced yet, but when sourcing a shop Daytona was strongly recommended by a few people.

    My Personal suggestion.....there are a few on here that are mentioned, and everyone (myself included) tend to be a tad baised. I would strongly recommend you visit the 2-4 that were mentioned. Dont get caught up in the bright lights, and shinny cars, or the nice talk by any of them, they will be talking nice to you because they will want your business.....

    I would ask the questions that appeal to you the most....if just fixing these cars to a bare minimum, then you can easily find places to work on them to take your money, if you have a certain standard and prefer to fix things at a higher level then ask the questions to reflect.

    I go to Rocks auto, reason why i go there is 3 fold.

    1) I have and prefer older ferrari's and he has this experience into making them period correct without issue

    2) He is just as anal as i am when it comes to having everything work "NEW"....nothing worse for me than driving a 25-35 yr old ferrari and it actually runs like one...i want them to drive like 2009 cars, and trust me....with the money i spent...they do, but this is my choice, and its the level and standard i demand.

    3) He has the passion of all that is ferrari, you will find no Mercedes, Audis, or JAGS IN HIS SHOP, unless he is doing one of his ferrari clients a small quick favor. He is everything ferarri, new and old, and does it for the passion, no the money...if you see his shop, you'll know what i mean, you will not be walking on any granite floors over their....but one i think i can assure you....Your ferrari will always "RUN" like a reliable honda....welcome to fchat !! Stick around, alot of great guys on here

    They have always had tons of work there, and now with Massimo Conti there, they have even more. Every type of Ferrari is in and out of there for service. The only thing that hasnt been there is an F1 car. ;)

    i may be wrong but i heard that they are starting to advertise F1 historic's and SP 333 service . they have Massimo who has worked on and restored these cars in Italy . i was told that they have all the tools and factory software.
