Driver's Source or Sphere?

hi. i have met Mark and his partner up at Sphere, and i like them.
i have yet to meet anybody at driver's source, but i have heard good things about them.

given the locations i am slightly inclined to favor DS for the parking of some of my cars.

would anybody care to comment or relay their experiences with either of these places?

 

While I can't speak on storage, my uncle had 3M put on his Jetta at DS and said he was extremely satisfied.

 

Cant comment on storage either but I do business with Sphere, Mark replaced a clutch in Gallardo and two weeks ago I was down there getting a detail from Jason. Both top notch operations so I'm sure either one you choose will be fine.

 

I've been in the Vault at DS. There are some incredible cars stored there, many of which belong to the guy that owns the place so I'm sure they are well cared for. I remember there were power outlets everywhere and they have storage on two floors. Cars aren't separated by anything so it's basically open storage space.

 

Good people at both places. DS has the storage, though.

 

Get all my service at Sphere....tried DS since they are close to me, but their communication was horrible.....

 

I've responded to Ross previously, but wanted to say, I don't have any experience with Driver Source.

I am biased towards Alara Garage/Sphere, since I've been to Ara's place (Alara Garage) and he's been to mine. We occasionally have customers go back and forth between cities.

 

randy, i hear you. and tend to agree. but, sphere is really out of my way. will see.

 

Much the same at Alara Garage, the owner of Sphere's space.

 

I have used both shops and am satisfied with the outcome from each.

 

Sphere does too.

 

The opposite can also happen. There are a couple of occasions where Mark (Sphere) has not called me back. On the other hand, Steve (Driver Source) always returns my texts.

 

I'm obviously a little biased here, given that my dealership is in the same location as Alara Garage and Sphere, but let me at least explain the businesses.

At Alara Garage, there are multiple businesses:

1. Alara Garage: automobile storage
2. Sphere Motorsports: exotic car service
3. M. Brandon Motorcars: my dealership
4. Cavallo Auto Salon: high-end auto detailing
5. Modish Wraps: high-end vinyl wraps for cars

Ross, we'd love to see you store your cars at Alara Garage.

 

Sphere gets my business all day.

 

Guess I don't know Steve, I was "trying" to get set up for a service with Lindsay.....dentist visits were less painful.

 

Did you get my message, about the 348 Luggage set??

 

I did not. I have a 550 luggage set for sale, though.

 

Hmm, I ran across a 348 set, at a Resale Shop.

I did not buy it most likely still there..PM sent

 

If neither of you pick it up, I'd like to go see it. Please forward info to me. Thanks.

 

Danny Nguyen at The Annex also has a good set up...and he's inside the loop.
