    Who are you using in Arizona to maintain your car? I have been going to Scottsdale Ferrrari, but I was wondering if there is anyone else who is considered to great for maintenance and repair, but less costly.

    Any input would be appreciated.

    Thanks for the feedback. Alex seems nice, and he is literally 1/2 mile from my office, nice!

    Alex does the maintenance on my dad's 348 spider. I have read good things about him also.

    Alex is doing my 30k major on my F355 right now. Stop by his shop this week and you can see inside my engine!

    Went there and saw your engine on the stand, very cool. I could not see inside the car as it was on the lift, looked very nice from what I could see. Maybe I will see you at a Ferrari meet.

    I saw your 355 at Alex's shop. The inside of your engine looks really cool. I noticed how the lobes of the cams are ground at an angle to account for the "splaying" of the valves. I am looking for a 1995 F355 just like yours. Alex was very knowlegable and gave me lots of 355 info I can use to help me find the right car. When I find one, I plan to take it to him to check it out for me.

    Alex completed the 15K service including belts on my 88 328 GTS.Alex did a great job and the engine looked like new when I picked up the car.He's the "man" when it comes to exotics.
