Ferrari Torrance Dealership??!!!

Ditto.

 

Time will tell...I'll stick to my thoughts.

I'm around the area very often...I may even know you fatbillybob...many freinds/brother still up there from PV to Manhattan. Many freinds live from the Strand, next to Terranea and "behind the gates". A couple of years ago my neice was Ms. Teen Palos Verdes. Wealthy Asians have been up there for many years, nothing new. Many people, I agree like you say, grew up there, love it and later buy there...never leave.

Let's see how many F-Cars show on the 6th for C&C in PV...

Again, I wish them well....

 

I remember when Ferrari North America moved in to Sylvan Ave in Englewood Cliffs, we said there goes the neighborhood....
Have to admit it was better then Renault

 

Ha Ha ... Early 80s Ferrari had there parts ditribution center located just off the 91 Frwy
and S.Central blvd. Compton - later moved to Cypress on Katella Ave.

 

Doomsday profits have been talking down hawthorne blvd for years blaming recession no jobs etc. But the reality is there are all kinds of new building projects on HB. The real problem is not that there are a lack of business, buyers, or builders. The problem is that the land owners are holding fast for top dollar+ for the land because these have been owned and paid for long ago and the deep pocket owners can afford to leave them vacant. The old surprise store for example has been vacant for about a decade yet the woman who owns it basically does not care to deal with anyone. Many have tried.

 

Although a wee bit off topic but not by much, I see the correlation. Bottom line, the South Bay area, regardless of people's opinion, is vastly increasing in popularity but more importantly, in wealth. The economy has redefine the scales of the norm and a Ferrari/Maserati dealership can only help the cause regardless the outcome. All that said, I drove by the said location which I still don't believe as there's nothing started there yet. Am I looking at the right place? I don't see anything resembling a dealership. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place? Isn't it suppose to be North of Lomita BL on Hawthorne BL?

 

Amazing shop & Great crew!!

Can't wait to get a lambo & work with these guys!

 

I have a rental home in Hermosa beach & going to buy a LAMBO.

There is a mindset in the southbay of "We have $, but were not gonna pay stupid Bev Hills prices"

 

I drove up and down Hawthorne Bl. between PCH and Sepulveda but couldn't find the location. I read somewhere it was suppose to be where the old Hawaiian restaurant was, the Loft? Still couldn't find it...

 

I thought it was going to be Martin Chevrolet. There's a lot of construction going on at that dealership but no signs that they are moving out or shutting down.

 

I believe Martin Chevrolet is doing renovation since is very out dated but there were other sites but no mention of Ferrari. Here's a link to the Daily Breeze back in Feb.

New Ferrari and Maserati car dealership slated to open in Torrance - The Daily Breeze

 

Yes, it will be built on where the old Loft Hawaiian Restaurant was on the West side of Hawthorne Bl. between Lomita Bl. & Skypark Dr., the old bldg has been demolished and fenced off w/green chain link fences now. You can't miss it, it's between FedEx Offices &
El Torito Restaurant. Martin Chevrolet is doing some renovations w/c is just South from it.

 

I see now, I know exactly where is at now...looks kinda small and I don't see them up and running by Dec. but who knows Thanks for the info tho

 

I heard it'll be a two-story bldg.

 

I bet they sell more Masers than F of BH. Same people but I think the SB wants more Masers if they can get factory service there. West LA is just too far away.

They picked a great spot for PV. And, you can drive like crazy on a test drive down Skypark past Torrance airport.

I think they will do well. Long overdue.

 

To TheMayor,
watch out for motorcycle Torrance PD behind the bushes/trees on Skypark Drive....

 

Any updates on this Torrance dealership? I own a Maserati, live in Torrance, and work within a stone's throw of the projected site on Hawthorne. Sure would be nice getting my ride serviced and ready for pickup on my way home.

 

The latest news I heard is around October of this year.

Btw, welcome to the F-chat!

 

I am excited. It's right by our office on Hawthorne! I wonder who will run the service department?

 

Exciting!
Right near hometown PV!
Charles you must be loving it.

I hope they have a cool grand opening and we all get to play.

 

Yes Eddie, I'm excited to have Ferrari of Southbay near my hometown.
