    I'm 2 hours south of Winnipeg, and 4 hours west of MSP...so, if anyone here could recommend a solid ferrari mechanic in Winnipeg, it would be appreciated.

    Last thread I saw on this was from 2008....

    Spring 2016, who can recommend a Ferrari maintenance shop in Winnipeg? Continental is closed, where are you taking your exotics now? Thanks, Dennis

    BUMP: still considering Winnipeg for a mechanic if there is one there that is recommended by my fellow drivers. Otherwise, MSP and 2NA will be my first choice.
    Anyone?

    Nott autocorp sells a few used ferraris each year. No idea if they service them as well or if they have a local shop. Might be worth while calling them. Otherwise Calgary maybe the closest that I know of.

    Just curious: would you be required to pay duty on parts and labor for repairs done in Canada?

    There is no one in Winnipeg that has the knowledge of Tim Keseluk (2na) I wouldn't wast my time bringing your car to Winnipeg. I've resorted to servicing my testarossa with the help of a friend who is a professional mechanic. I'm considering taking my car down to Minni this spring to have Tim set up the fuel injection system for me as this is proving to be a very tricky task. I would not take my exotic to Nott, selling them is one thing but servicing them is a totally different ball game. Good luck.

    I would not own a Ferrari in Winnipeg, get a Porsche, at least there's a dealer in town.

    You think anyone at a Ferrari dealer is capable to servicing a 30 year old ferrari? I won't even take my lexus to the dealer.

    Big difference in finding a mechanic experienced enough to service a tr and one capable of working on a 430.

    Even with Porsche, yes there is a Porsche dealer in Winnipeg but they don’t have much experience with the older water cooled front engine models.
