    Where did you buy your Ferrari? Do you prefer any over the others? The dealership(s) doesn't have to be in the midwest.

    LFSC.
    Could not find a better crew,better service or nicer showroom that looks more like a Country Club.
    Being located barely 4 miles away does not hurt either.....

    This is an age old debate for the Chicagoland area. You will find that many people have had positive, and negative experiences at both LFSC and CAS. I purchased my Maserati from CAS, I had a great experience, I went with them since they are closer to my home. Ive also met some of the LFSC crew, and they have been very cool as well.

    CAS - exceptional sales and service staff and I personally like the vintage expertise / emphasis. (Wishful thinking...maybe the next one.) I've also heard great things about LFSC and was very impressed by the SCCA member event held there a while ago. Seems like LFSC has a little more of a new car & racer emphasis whereas CAS has a little more of the collector and vintage emphasis. I've seen Enzo's at LFSC that stood out among what they have in the service department and I've seen vintage cars worth several Enzo's at CAS just about every time I drop by. Then again I've seen almost priceless race cars at LFSC...and I've worked races the Mancuso boys have run in and man are they fast! Both seem to be great dealerships - but for an entry level guy that has aspirations of owning a vintage sports / racer someday CAS is the place for me. (Plus I could probably push my car there if I had to!)

    Bottom line - you live in a great city when you have two exceptional Ferrari and Maserati dealerships like these nearby!

    Continental. They're like family at this point.

    Also have purchased from LFSC. Happy with them, also.

    +1 and I think it is a Win-Win situation for the dealerships and residents of Chicagoland.

    Walk in to both and see which you yourself prefer. I couldn't be more happy than with the service from Continental. Car coming back from new battery/ oil change/ recall service. Gary and Scott have been phenomenal and Pete is bringing my baby back tomorrow. I haven't seen her for over a week.

    Lake Forest Sports Cars. Tyler Dean is very knowledgeable. He is low key, never pushy and allows you to make the decision yourself after he provides complete and accurate information.
