    I'm not familiar with the dealer but there are two places nearby that can do aproper PPI. One is Continental Motorsports in Hinsdale they are official Ferrari Dealership and a sponsor/advertiser here. their number for service is 866-987-4646 they are just east of Naperville. The other place just north west is Euroquipe in St Charles, not a dealer but have certified service guys, ask for Brad or Kurt the Ferrari guy at 630-377-3774. Best of luck wiht your search

    All I know is that I looked at buying this yellow 355 in July 2008. The guy on the phone didn't sound helpful or trustworthy, in my opinion. Couldn't even answer a few of the questions I did have. If he has been sitting on this car for over a year, you may not get that great of a deal due to the drastic drop in wholesale and retail prices for these cars. He may be in to it too much. Plus, IIRC, there are no service records with this car. If it is NOT the same one, well who knows. It looks like the same one he had last year, though.

    Thank you so much for everyone's assistance. Decided to by a more local car that I can see before I buy,,,,355B. Any thoughts on berlinettas vs. spiders. I love the lines of the b, but the spiders seem to be more popular. Do the purest go for the B and the new guys go for the spiders,,,opinions please and thank you

    Also need recomends on indoor car cover!

    If you buy a properly maintained and cared-for car, it will come with its factory car cover.

    Take your time to research the market to find the "right" car, not just something to satisfy a compulsive "urge".

    You will be happier and have a better car down the road.
