    Don't waste your time with them. They seem to pride themsves in having this reputation. Down to turning a customer away twice!!
    If you want friendliness and passion from a dealer go to the Garage Zénith in Lausanne and Sion. Probably the best dealer in the world

    Q, the Penske-Wynn Ferrari dealership is unique in its refusal to let patrons/visitors photograph the showroom inventory. When pressed, their boilerplate response is that they don't want any scammers photographing their inventory, and then posting the pictures online in an attempt to scam people. It's really a piss poor excuse, since scammers could simply pull photos from their Website - but if that's what gets them off, c'est la vie. It does add insult to injury that they charge a $10 fee just to enter the showroom (unless you can prove you're a Ferrari owner). But I've met some nice employees there, so I guess it's only the policy that's ******y and not the individual employees.

    Hi, Raj... The sign is just there as a scare tactic - along with the rehearsed chants from the employees, "Excuse me! There are no photos allowed!" But they can't very well keep an eye on everyone all at once, can they?


    ...of course not :)

    I also hold Kessel in the highest regard. Both the dealership and Racing personnel are universally friendly!

    No, NO, they do not seriously charge a fee to enter their showroom?! I don't know whether to laugh or cry. :eek:

    What a bunch of imbeciles. That is embarrassing. Does the GM also happen charge a cover charge for his friends to enter his house for dinner?

    Ferrari says the famous Swiss collector Mr Obrist recently came to pick up his own LaFerrari. The color he chose for his LaFerrari was Grigio Ferro Met.

    I have been there several times. Because of their location, and due to an overwhelmingly high amount of traffic, they charge any and all visitors $10 to simply walk into the showroom. They will, however, waive the fee if you can provide proof of Ferrari ownership.

    Yes, Paul Bailey also received the first P1 in the UK.

    So it's basically them showcasing their 'respected' Ferrari dealership as a cheap tourist attraction. Yeah... Great strategy. :rolleyes:

    I can't speak as to the efficacy of their strategy - but after it was explained to me, it did make sense. The dealership/showroom is not a separate structure from the hotel and casino - it's literally attached to the hotel/casino, and thousands of people walk just a few feet past the entrance every single day. I don't agree with their photography prohibition, especially since they're charging everyone $10 just to walk through the door - but I appreciate the reasoning for the entrance fee. The money isn't my issue - it's paying the money and then being told that I can't take picture (because of some ridiculous, bull**** excuse, even though every other Ferrari dealership in the country allows photography).

    Yep, I think that would be my LaFerrari colour. It even makes the black roof look good. I'd actually have a dilemma going solid or not.

    Mine too-always been exactly the spec I would choose, probably with the black roof. I just seem incapable of not going grey on most F cars.
