    Hello Ferrari Community,

    I just bought my Ferrari and though I will work the most myself, I would like to have backup in case I got stuck on something while working on the car.

    Is there any reputable shops here in Riverside that can work on a Ferrari? Thank you guys!

    Try posting/looking in the So Cal region......lot's of 411 there, monthly meetings, mechanics.
    Do you have a lift at the house/shop ? For doing work...

    What F-car did you get ?

    Oops sorry, newb mistake. Can the admin move this to the Southern California section please? I didn't prefer to create duplicate threads.

    I purchased a 360 Modena. I don't have a lift but I've been working on cars and I learned to do it the typical way, jacks... ; ) Maybe next christmas gift will be a lift...

    Thank you top admin for moving this thread.

    Hello Fellow Ferrarist...: ) I checked Yelp and Google but can't find any reputable independent shops here that works on Ferrari. Any references would help. Thank you!

    Congratulations on 360!

    Riverside does not quiet have enough Ferraris to justify a shop.
    Try Raging Bull Performance in Costa Mesa. They will the closest to you freeway-wise.

    Thank you. Most folks here that sees me assumes that I'm dealing or doing something illegal to have this beauty. Plus, Im not even on my 30s so that adds to it. But It's mine and I worked hard for it. :)

    Let me check them out. Other recommendations closer? Thanks guys

    Congratulations on your acquisition !
    There are shops in and around Riverside with some experience on Ferraris, although not sure if any, especially mine would qualify "reputable" since for past 25 years I've been trying to keep it relatively "private" and "selective". Besides my main interest and business focus is on restoration and service of carbureted era vintage cars, incl. Ferraris with couple of them currently in the shop and do not wish expand to work requiring computerized diagnostic equipment.
    Some of my clientele and friends have "modern" Ferraris and other "exotics" to which I have occasionally provided some repairs and services, but mostly just minor mechanical or cosmetic things.
    Any work requiring modern diagnostic equipment I refer to elsewhere.
    If you have any interest visiting my (modest) shop and just talk cars, perhaps we can exchange contact info via PM ?
    And if still needed, I could also provide some recommendations "to elsewhere" but prefer to do so privately.

    FASTCARS in Redondo Beach is where I take my car from Hemet. You might also check out CNC in Ontario as well. Both are reputable and sponsors on FCHAT.
