    I vacation in Naples a few times a year as my Aunt owns a hotel down there and lives in the Moorings, the beach is great so its a wonderful place to relax for a week or two. Anyways, last two times down there I stopped by Naples Motorsports on Airport just to drool and look at all the goodies. I would have to suggest that they are a super nice group of people!! The guy at the time that was running the place was really cool, typically being 20, most high end retail places would run me out, granted I work high end retail and wear a Rolex, thats not something super noticeable and I was impressed with how nice he was. They also had a very impressive collection of Ferraris, 355's, 360's, and at the time what I believe was a TR. Although I am currently in noway able to purchase one of these vehicles I thought I would give them a leg up as they were very nice people to talk to! Not to mention I am a European car fan through and through and it was like a kid in a candy store for me walking through that place, $100,000 cars packed in like sardines, it's probably one of my favorite things to do when I visit down there, he even offered to start the 360 up for me but I felt a bit embarrased, although now I really wish I had as I would love to hear one inside.

    RS,

    A member of this Board - Mike Oldani just purchased a 94 348 Spider from them. From what he mentioned they were very good to deal with, good negotiation on price. Good Customer Service, etc.

    I have been to their showroom as well - very nice indeed.

    I've been there a time or two, my family has a place on Sanibel. Anyway, the place is pretty nice and doesn't have that "fly-by-night" feeling other places in the area do.

    Glad to hear they are a nice place, just being such a car enthusiast I love to spend time just taking in these cars and was very impressed with how kind they were. I can only imagine them being even better with a real customer.

    I've heard good and bad about the Boston shop. I guess, as with any place, you do your due diligence, check out the car thoroughly, and get it inspected prior to purchase.

    Every time I see something on ebay from Naples, it seems they have the BEST pictures and very detailed I might add. Frame Worthy pictures! If I'm ever in the area, I deffinately want to check them out and hopefully not make a mess drueling on their floor. Maybe I should take a druel bucket along?

    Both Baystate and Naples are great places to deal with. My brother has bought five cars from them and has known the owner (Todd) for years. Rob at Baystate is very knowlegable (as are all the other guys as well) and great to deal with. When the time comes for me to get a Ferrari I will definitely be looking to buy from these guys.
