    With Ferrari of Atlanta being my nearest factory authorized dealer at 350 miles away, I feel I'm somewhat of an outlier when it comes to distance. In fact, the seller I bought my Ferrari from has two factory authorized dealers within 30 minutes of him.

    I'm curious as to how far the typical Ferrari owner lives from an authorized dealer? Can anyone beat my distance of 350 miles?

    I was 1. Now they moved from the Wynn hotel so it's now 5. :)

    In fact if I had your distance I could find 5 dealers closer!

    There used to be a dealer in Mississippi, but that was a long time ago.

    Hey Chip...I would assume that many of those Ferrari I see w/ Montana plates may be >350 miles from the nearest dealer. ;)

    I thought I read that there are a goodly # of F-car owners in west Texas. They may be be able to compete with you. I don't envy you, I get nervous being ~ 20 miles away from Boardwalk Ferrari...T

    Haha, yeah, I'm not proud of how far away I am. Truthfully, it makes me nervous, too. Just curious what the average distance was?

    I can see why: "A simple, class-based system provides the structure for Alaska's vehicle registration fees. All passenger vehicles, trucks and vans that weigh less than 10,000 lbs are charged a flat fee of $100.00. A $15.00 title fee must also be paid, and a plate fee of between $30.00 and $50.00 may be assessed for any new registration. A $2.00 emissions fee might also be levied if the vehicle is being registered in either Anchorage or Fairbanks."

    I live about 200 miles from FOW which is a great disadvantage on getting certain cars on the other hand maybe it saves a bunch of money ...
    all in how I look at it..

    I think I might win for shortest distance....under 3 miles. Not a good thing when they have new inventory constantly.

    I thought I had you beat, but punching in Google Maps, it spit out 4.5 miles for me, just my subconscious' wishful thinking.

    About 70 miles.

    If I lived around the corner from the dealer, I would be looking at new cars all the time. :Do_O
