    Hey guys,
    I maybe purchasing my first Ferrari this week and the car is located in Saddle Brook NJ... Who would you guys recommend for a PPI in the surrounding area?

    Are anyone of you local guys familiar with this car?

    Can't comment on the car as I can't access the weblink for this car from my office site. Steve's shop, Arena Motors is close to Saddle Brook and he is a straight shooter, very experienced Independent Ferrari / Lamborgini mechanic that services many of the member of this board's cars, including my 1986 Mondial Cab. His number is 201-288-2003.

    Hi Wayne,

    Yes, Steve Arena is your man. I have been checking out the car you are talking about at Troby (just from pics) ... just looking for fun - but that is at leas from pics - one damn sweet looking 360 - my fav, an early 360 modena. Good luck!! If you are in NJ picking it up - send a note.

    thanks for the headsup.. I was coming across old internet links for the car selling for 79k and not 69k... After a little bit of digging i found out that the car has been in a front end collision and currently needs new lower ball joints with one outstanding campaign :(...

    I would not purchase any car -- let alone a car as "delicate" as an F-car -- from Troby Motors. This is a small, independant used car lot on Route 46 in Saddle Brook. For those familar with the area it is just another used car lot on the "strip" that sells cars that are typically high mileage auction cars that are cleaned up enough to look great on the lot.

    I used to work on "the strip" and know almost all these dealers on a personal basis. While I was friendly enough with most of them to do business (mostly repairs of electrical problems) and they are nice enough guys I would NEVER spend my own money with any of them.

    Just my $0.02.

    I second Anthony's post - I have looked around that area before. None of the dealers on the "strip" are exotic dealers. Again, might not mean all that much to you personally, but just FYI.
