    Hello! I am new Ferrari owner (waiting on truck with my 612 now). I live in west South Carolina near the border with Augusta, Georgia. Just asking for recommendations on reliable service provider in the area, if any are known to my fellow Ferrari owners. Luckily, the 612 won't need anything major soon, as it just had the timing belt, etc major service completed. But I would feel better doing even the routine annual work with a known shop with Ferrari knowledge. Thanks for any help available!

    Ferrari Atlanta is one of the best in the dealer network. They will trailer your car to their shop and back.

    Thanks for the recommendation. I will keep it in mind. I am hoping for a good shop closer than 3 hours away, at least for routine work.

    If this is your first Ferrari, it's doubtful anyone in your area will be a specialist. I may be wrong, but whatever you do, keep in mind that the Carfax report will report where you service the car which can be important for future buyers. I trailer my car 6 hours to Atlanta because they are so good and very honest from my experience. I could literally drive it 5 miles to my local Ferrari dealer, but choose Atlanta instead.

    I do feel there may be no good service providers near me, but I hope to hear differently. Your recommendation for the Atlanta dealer is strong though, so it's good to know there is an excellent choice not THAT far away!

    Automotive International in Charlotte is excellent if you want to be sensible amd avoid the dealer network.

    dera Thanks! Just checked out their web site and they do look impressive. Have you used them yourself? Looks likely as you are in Charlotte! Three hour drive for me whether Atlanta or Charlotte. Not what I am hoping for, but guess that may be how it goes. Thanks again for your reply.

    I have used them a couple of times and have been very happy with the work they provided.
    Always some impressive cars in the workshop too to drool over!

    From that I might surmise that you are in Aiken or thereabouts.

    GTM ( Greenville) and AI (Charlotte) are both outstanding.

    You may find Karl Troy (ERR) in North Charleston a bit closer.

    I have used all three of these shops and they are all top notch.

    Both great options!

    What is GTM?
    I need to get an annual service on my Speciale and Greenville is much more convenient than Atlanta.
    Thanks @UroTrash and @Ricambi America

    Just got a Roma. I live near spartanburg. Haven't really decided where to have it serviced, but I've heard good things about GTM.

    I'm still within the 7 year free service window- but closest authorized dealer is Greensboro NC or Atlanta. Long way to go for just an oil change.

    Do yourself a favor and call GTM to speak with Gregory or Terrance! They will be able to help you out and are right in your backyard.

    Why not take it to Charlotte? They pick up and deliver to me in Columbia. Not sure if they provide the same service to Spartanburg.

    How much do Ferrari dealers charge for oil and filter changes?
    In particular on twelve cylinder cars.
