You may be driving a new Ferrari or one that’s been in your collection for years, but no matter how fun it might seem to turn heads as you cruise down the interstate, you should think twice before driving long distances. Whether you’re moving or you’ve just bought a Ferrari from another state and need to bring it home, having your car transported is the smart decision — and it’s easy.
The hunt for a particular collector car is both exciting and exhausting, and it can often take you to the distant reaches of the country. Once you find that personal white (or Ferrari red) whale, a part of you would likely love to kickstart a road trip to drive it home. But those are needless miles on the odometer and an excess of wear on the vehicle.
You’ll be faced with the same extensive wear and tear if you’re moving and plan to drive your performance car to your new home when you’ve wisely left moving the rest of your possessions to the professionals.
Whether you own a Ferrari, Bentley, Aston Martin, or another sports car, it is likely one of your most valuable possessions. You would pay a professional to move your television and your furniture; you should find a professional to move your auto.
We just compared moving your Ferrari to moving your television, but you shouldn’t plan to simply load your LaFerrari into the back of a moving truck. You’ll need to choose the right shipper, and like choosing your moving company, you’ll need to keep some important factors in mind:

It can be easy to miss dings or scratches when you’re just eager to have your car where it belongs, but you should go over all the details and ensure that the representative from your shipping company is in agreement if there appears to be any damage.

Each new Ferrari takes three months to assemble, from the casting of the engine to the final touches before it arrives at Ferrari Lake Forest for Chicago drivers.

The Ferrari 488 specs prove it was a new entry in the Ferrari legacy, and whether you choose the Ferrari 488 GTB (above), Spider, Pista, or Pista Spider, you’ll have the keys to one of the world’s finest automobiles. Discover the specs of each Ferrari 488 model below, then reach out to us if there’s…
From the very first Ferrari to the modern lineup to future vehicles, drivers are entranced by the power and capability — and their first question is usually “how fast is a Ferrari?” We know there’s more to a car than its speed, but we also know that few cars can compare to a Ferrari’s hand-assembled…
