    Hi folks,
    I just moved to the Eastern Shore of VA, near Exmore. I'm looking for a shop to work on my 550, it needs tires, alignment, trim around the headlights, alarm/immobilizer work and wiring in the headliner sorted out.
    Thanks- Jim

    Wow, you’re far from anywhere. There must be places in Norfolk/Virginia Beach that can sort you out.

    I have done some research in the N/VB area and haven't found anything yet, still looking.
    Nobody can recommend anybody besides Competizione in the area?

    I highly highly recommend the combination of Rosso Service of Stitcht interiors in Baltimore. They share a building and have done amazing work for me. DM of you want to talk about it.

    There is a reason only Competizione always comes up first.

    I have no idea why that would be.. According to service records on my car, Competizone did the work for the previous owner for over three years before I bought it. It cost me almost $17K to sort out the issues with the motor. Based on what was found, my trust level in them is low. If they are the best in the area, I'll ship my car back to the mechanic I had before I moved to VA.

    All four shops listed here so far are about 4 hrs away from me. Time for a road trip, or two, next week. :)

    So, your engine had issues (shocker in a Ferrari) and your saying Competizione caused them?? Please.
    Could it have been the previous owner skimped and did not always do the necessary work on the car?!

    Agreed on Scuderia Performante. I live in DC and I send my cars there. Tony and Anthony are not only incredibly skilled but they are good, decent and honest gentlemen. They are exceptional.

    I go to SP from NYC. Anthony is a pleasure to deal with. Very knowledgeable and never bothered by my questions.

    They are spectacular. I can't say enough about their work or their integrity.
