    Hi - am bringing down a Cali and Portofino in a couple weeks. Any local F club in the area? Also, I know I asked before, but can not find the reply - any good independent mechanics in the area for annual service. I still have 5 years to go on the factory annuals for the Porto - but am thinking the nearest shop would be Greenville or Atlanta.

    Any advice appreciated.

    Thanks

    I recommend you give Gregory a call at GTM and son in Greer, SC. 864.877.8111. He's been servicing my F430 for the past 7 years. Nice guy and does great work.

    I did not renew my FCA membership due to lack of events here along the SC/GA coast.
    Virtually no Aston Martin nor Lamborghini Club events here either.
    We do have 4 Monthly Cars & Coffee events nearby so always people to connect with.
    I also second the Karl Troy recommendation.

    I agree with the the mechanic recommendations. All mentioned are great options and great people.

    Would love to have you join us with the Ferrari Club of America. www.ferrariclubofamerica.org

    We had a great event in Charleston last Summer at the Middleton Plantation and we are having a dinner in Hilton Head for the Concours in Hilton Head on November 5 among other events this year. Hope you can join us and welcome to South Carolina.

    Likewise he services my F430 as well. Can’t say enough good things about him and his shop.

    I've heard nothing but good things about Karl Troy.
    We've spoken several times and he's always been willing to spend a few minutes with me. I'm a new Ferrari owner and he's only had the car once for a relatively minor issue, but we did get a chance to talk quite a while on a Saturday.
    I have no hesitation or question he will be doing my service. Multiple people have told me he's the one to take it to and he's local.

    There is a Cars and Coffee every Saturday morning at Town Center in Mt P.
    There is Ale and Octane once a month on Daniel Island. This is a much larger event, and broad spread of cars.
    Both have facebook pages.

    Look for the yellow 328, and hope to see you there.

    Where exactly is the Town Center in Mt Pleasant?
    I'd like to attend some day.

    Cars and Coffee is behind the South State Bank 1899 N Hwy 17, Mt Pleasant (Town Center is a long outdoor mall)

    Ale and Octane is behind New Realm Brewing 880 Island Park Drive, Charleston. (Daniel Island)

    They are both good groups. A&O is much larger.

    I stepped away for a few minutes into a store. My son sent a text that another Ferrari showed up but by the time I saw it and came back out, you had left. I'm sure we will connect at one show or the other. We will be at Ale and Octane next week.

    Thanks for all the great advice. Now on the ground here - Am trying to find who does garage storage build outs - cabinets, slat walls, etc. I had redline in KS, which was awesome, but no agents here.

    I contacted Costal garage solutions, but don't think they have what I want. Will see next week. Any suggestions appreciated.

    thanks, Jim

    They are both good groups. A&O is much larger, just occurred this past Sunday so you have to wait for November.
