    Do you know how much they might charge? - what you think is the right price?

    Also what is a good rate for a 360 oil change?

    I take all of my cars to randy as well. You'll have zero issues with him and he's fair.

    Although being in South OC I have found it well worth it to go to FastCars in Redondo Beach. Ask for Craig - they maintain all my F-cars. Make sure you know and understand what it is included in the service - that will obviously affect the cost...

    I second the recommendation for Massimo in Laguna Hills. Great work, attention to detail, good communication throughout the process, timely service, and on top of all that he will give you a thumb drive loaded with pics of the work done. This not only demonstrates his thorough work but (should you ever sell the car) documents exactly what was done and will serve as reassurance when referencing the work done in the future.

    My car is a 355, so I cannot give you a cost estimate, but Massimo is fair (price-wise) and a super-nice guy too!

    Eugenio's is the best. He does not work personally and everything is done correctly the first time.

    I mean does the work personally! No helper, apprentice, secretary etc. Only he touches your car and everything is documented and anything replaced is returned to you. The shop looks like an OR unlike some of the places mentioned.

    Larry at Ferraritech in Orange is great. He's done 3 major services (every 5 years) on my 308GT4.
