Who has an SD2+ in K.C.?

does KC still have a Maser dealer?

edit: yes they do! give their service center a call, I'd imagine they have an SD2+. shop manual or tech experienced w/ 355's, thats another story.

good luck finding someone over there Blamp

 

No shop in KC, including the Maserati dealer has an SD2 (they will not touch a Ferrari). I had the only SD2 in KC and sold it a while back.

Ship your car to Ferrari of Denver, you will never regret it!

 

I stand corrected. interesting

there are enough Fcars in KC that surely there's a decent independent shop, no?

 

No.

As Chris said in post #5, he had the only shop in KC but closed it.

But I still find it odd there isn't ONE guy, or even two, that can handle the 'minor' stuff working out of a private shop.

 

closing a shop means there weren't enough actual customers, not enough potential customers

 

Plenty of customers! Wide open for anyone willing to take on the challenge to serve the Ferrari community in KC. The problem? There is no shop willing to step up to the 21st Century.

Any "Ferrari" shop boasting they are best to service your late model Ferrari (1985 and newer) and also profess to being the best for the last 35 years.... please be aware!! These mechanics haven't a clue!! They scrimp day by day to keep the doors open. They don't invest into their trade. They live in the 80's and are not willing to change to STAY in business! They do not invest in certain mandatory diagnostic equipment to properly service your baby!! The updated diagnostic equipment is required to do more than a basic oil change and out of the 80's (and older) Ferrari repair task.... In todays service environment, there are NO short cuts to save the owner's in the long run. A Ferrari mechanic who does not invest his time in training AND expensive diagnostic equipment will be cheaper but will compromise service and reliability everytime.

For all the Ferrari owners on cars requiring service be sure you chose a mechanic has with many good testimonials and a shop with a great following. .

 

In the old days, pre-9/11, a one-way flight Denver-Omaha was $40, I'm scared to even look at what it is today. We used to fly up to Mall of America and back for $69, take the shuttle from the airport to the mall, wander around all day, fly home at night. Those days are gone.
