Agree....just look at what the coils cost from Ferrari, what 4-5 times as much as getting Bosch from the U.K. !
Know your seller. I buy all my NGK plugs from ebay seller "parts container", which is a legit parts wholesaler with warehouses all over the USA. I get Bosch, Mann, Mahle, Bremi coils (for my BMW) and NGK plugs, all are authentic and best prices I can find. I too used the online info from NGK to double check that what I receive is authentic, never had an issue, ever.

Amazon says these are not the right plugs for a 360. Maybe you could write and correct them? Sent from my iPad using FerrariChat.com mobile app
This is the latest thread on spark plugs for my car I could find. I am getting into a major and figured if I am removing plugs to find TDC and check timing I may as well replace them. Amazon is not shipping these to my state. So lame..then I go to NGK to check the source and.. Image Unavailable, Please Login WTF does that mean?
Still around, bought a new oes (original equipment supplier) gas cap for my BMW last winter https://www.ebay.com/usr/partscontainer?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2754 8 ea PMR8B https://www.ebay.com/itm/For-Ferrari-360-599-Maserati-Coupe-GranSport-Set-of-8-Spark-Plugs-NGK-6378/360819250126?hash=item540280d3ce:g:eCAAAOxyVLNStFlH
I have to deal with this kind of crap all the time... "Does Not Ship to Hawaii" So ridiculous..a small flat rate box is 9 bucks. Charge me ten extra dude! LOL Image Unavailable, Please Login
Just to confirm what others have said. The Partscontainer plugs on Ebay are most likely genuine. At least that's what the tech dept. at NKG tells me from the pics I sent them. I was concerned because they are not listed as an authorized seller, same thing for the plugs sold on Amazon, or any plugs from Rockauto, meaning they are not purchased directly from NGK. NGK has an authorized seller list on their website. If you want to be 100% certain then just spend the extra $3 per plug and buy from NGK's store directly.
Good point. They probably ship to Hawaii as well. If not, let me know Kevin and I can either relay the package or get them and drop them in a box for you.
Interesting to purchase the plugs directly from NGK. There is this place that has the ngk.com url but they say they are not NGK Spark Plugs USA. Kinda strange. Image Unavailable, Please Login If I look at NGK's website they reference these as legit.. Funny that the link below to allngkproducts.com is a re-direct to the one above! Which is part of sparkplugs.com. Image Unavailable, Please Login
The reason NGK cannot know for certain is that Partscontainer like many retailers, buys from a wholesale distributor. When I have ordered from Partscontainer, whether Bosch, NGK or whatever, sometimes it ships from a local warehouse in WA State where I reside, other times it may come from CA or NV. NGK probably does not get tracing reports from their distributors to know every stocking retailer.
Well NGK kinda punked me. I ordered and paid, but didnt receive and they say they are now out of stock, with no date for restock. So I ordered from some random place on ebay that has a good rating...Oh the fun!
