Sponsor Curiosity

Curious to know which sponsor you most enjoy having on the board and why?

Will provide my own views in a bit so this thread doesn't sound self-serving.

Thanks.

 

Firstly, I appreciate all our sponsors, and it's difficult for me to say who I enjoy the most. Secondly, I haven't needed to buy mechanical/performance items beyond 'nuts and bolt's and have had little interactions with these sponsors thus far. Lastly, as far as other types of sponsors, I have enjoyed interacting with LuxuryBazaar. I like fine watches, and will one day do more than look through the glass cases.

Btw, can Rob get Victoria's Secret to be a sponsor?

 

Hard to beat the (in my estimation) well-deserved reputation of Ricambi America, mostly due to the owner. Had he not been a sponsor, who knows how long I might have kept all that extra money!!

 

I would think the sponsors should have a more visable reach on fchat. As soon as you scroll down, there "lost". So I think some people forget they are here.

 

I thought Victoria's Secret was already a sponsor - my mistake.

Daniel at Ricambi is pretty active here and owns/drives a real Ferrari, so it's not just a matter of having a banner ad. He actually adds to the site instead of just selling.

Although I'd rather have Victoria's Secret be a sponsor, come to think of it.

 

Don't quite know how to interpret "enjoy"?

For me, it's about getting needed F parts at more reasonable prices -- RicambiAmerica and Hill Engineering.

 

Combination of unsolicited board input; product knowledge; product range, availability and pricing; and general levels of customer satisfaction.

 

Just think of it: getting previews, inputs, discounts......samples!

Will definitely add 'immensely' to the Bikini Thread!

 

I have bought stuff from several sponsors, but Fchat was the catalyst for purchases from Ricambi (very happy indeed) and AC lift (also superb in speccing, delivering and installing my lifts.

I also very successfully used Ferrariads.com to sell my 355 in a day.

Thanks Rob!

 

Ricambi America. Also when I had my 308 before Ricambi was around I had very good service from Nick's Forza Ferrari. Both are owned by great guys.

 

Dan at Ricambi America. As much as I irritate him with the same questions all the time, he answers them. lol. As soon as I know what I want, Dan corrects me. lol.

 

+1

 

Daniel is awesome.

Ricambi is the best

 

Daniel at Ricambi is the best! I also bug him with stupid questions but I usually wind up buying from him too if he has what I'm looking for. (I'll get back to you one of these days about the battery cables too Daniel!)

Roy from Cats Exotics is also a hoot. He's a member of our local club and is quite the character (in a good way). I also understand he is very helpful in the Lambo forums.

 

+1 and add Girodsic, great brake experts!

 

Premier Motorcars, because I know the guys there personally and they are really nice guys and I would not hesitate to buy a car from them

 

A word about Ultimate Pedals.

When I finally drove my car w/the newly installed footrest/clutch/brake/gas pedals I bought from UP, I noticed that the anti-slip edges on the footrest I ordered was chewing up the leather on the left side of my shoe as it rubbed against the extended flange on the footrest as I pressed down on the clutch pedal.

One call to UP and I was told there was no problem in changing out the ant-slip footrest piece for a smooth one that should be easier on my expensive italian footwear!

Rob, thanks, your a class act.
