    I just purchased a 2000 360 Modena ( awesome car.....) in Florida. I live in central Pa and am looking for a reputable dealer/service tech to maintain my car. There is a dealership in the Philidelphia area and 1 in NJ. This is my first Ferrari and not sure where to take it for service.
    Thank you for any help.

    Algar is closest to you and has a good rep, but i have all work done on all my cars by Classic coach in Elizabeth NJ even though they are 2 hours from my house. They will pick up and drop off. Excellent work and really nice people.

    In front of the comp
    There actually is no authorized NJ dealer, YET!!!
    Yes, Classic Coach is a repair center, but not a dealer, that's why they have Central Florida. I was told that they only have one or two techs working there anyway(NJ).
    Algar would be close to you, depending on your location.

    But if you can make a call, I would recommend Wide World of Cars.
    They have about 6 techs, maybe more, and at one time said that they were the largest Ferrari Dealer in the NorthEast.
    I have been there recently and they are having some sort of winter special too(10% off).

    I guess I am luck in a way, I have 3 F dealers very close to me.
    WWoC, Ferrari of LI, and Miller motorcars...

    Good Luck to you.

    Tom: I recently bought a 360 from Algar in Philadelphia. Mark, the Service Manager and Tony, a mechanic will treat you well. I wouldn't Like to go as far as Jersey. Algar will pick the car up for a major service.

    Just curious to know if most of the guys that offer to pick up/drop-off the car do it for gratis, or whether they add on another $500 to the service bill.

    Thanks.

    Thanks everyone for your responses. I actuallly purchased the car from Ferrari of Central Fl.(who is afiliated with Classic Coach). Algar and Classic Coach are about the same distance from my home but i think I'd prefer a Pa Service area so I can have my inspections completed there.
    Since I am not familiar with either place I really appreciated your input.
    Thanks,
    Tom
