Ferrari logo

Ferrari, a brand launched in 1939, is a name associated with performance, and exclusivity. Enzo Ferrari founded the company in Modena, Italy, initially as Auto Avio Costruzioni, producing tools and aircraft parts during World War II. It wasn’t until 1947 that the first car, the 125 S, bearing the name was built.

The 1950s and 1960s were a golden era for Ferrari, both on the race track and on the road. Ferrari quickly established a dominant presence in motorsports, particularly in Formula One. It had the advantage of legendary drivers like Juan Manuel Fangio and later Niki Lauda driving for the team. In parallel with its racing success, they produced a series of stunning road cars, the 250 series, specifically the 250 GTO.

Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, models like the Daytona, Testarossa, and the F40 marked milestones for the industry. The F40 in particular, was bitter sweet, the last Ferrari approved by Enzo Ferrari himself before his death in 1988.

The 1990s and early 2000s saw the introduction of models like the 355, 360 Modena, and the Enzo. The Enzo, crafted by Ken Okuyama at Pininfarina, was unveiled in 2002 and named in tribute after the founder.

In recent years, Ferrari has continued to push the boundaries with hybrid technology, as seen in the LaFerrari. Cars like the 488 GTB, F8 Tributo, and SF90 Stradale are just a few of the recent successes.

Today, its prancing horse logo is recognized globally as a symbol of performance and luxury. The company’s continued success in Formula One racing also contributes to its legendary status, continuing a tradition that dates back to its earliest days.

Alex is a great guy. He took the time to respond by phone and walk me through my options for my Tesla Model Y 2024 and gave me his perspectives as a Tesla owner. Top recommendation in my books for the Toronto area.

I cannot say enough good things about Livio and the team at Radman Auto Repair in Rexdale. We brought in my son’s 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer because the A/C was malfunctioning. We had already been to two other shops, paid for diagnostics, and received different explanations, so we were frustrated and unsure what to do next. Livio was outstanding. He listened carefully, looked at the issue, and explained everything clearly and in detail in a way that actually made sense. He was able to narrow down what was going on within minutes, without guessing, pressure, or recommending unnecessary work. What really stood out was that he did not charge us another diagnostic fee after learning we had already paid for two separate diagnoses. Even better, the work was completed the same day, which was a huge relief. It is rare to find a mechanic who is knowledgeable, honest, patient, efficient, and genuinely focused on helping customers understand the real issue before they spend money on repairs. Livio truly gets it. We are so happy we found Radman Auto Repair and would highly recommend Livio and his team to anyone looking for trustworthy, skilled, and customer-focused service..

My 2015 Honda CR-V was blowing hot air and making noise when the A/C was on. The Compressor and Expansion valve needed replacement due to metal debris in the system. I rarely write reviews, but I felt it would be wrong not to appreciate Radman for their service, especially after what I went through before finding them. I’m writing this one month after the repair because I wanted to test my A/C on multiple long trips before recommending them. One thing I learned from this experience is that many mechanics know how to replace parts, but very *few follow the right procedures* and perform the proper checks. I initially went for a cheaper repair at a local mechanic. The problem came back, and afterward he didn’t seem to know what to do next. I found Radman through Google reviews without any personal recommendation, so I was taking a chance. They properly diagnosed the issue, explained everything clearly before starting the work, didn’t exaggerate the problem, and charged me a reasonable price. A/C issues can be complicated but they answered all my questions and I honestly haven’t had such a good and detailed conversation with a mechanic in the GTA about an A/C problem. Their knowledge and experience with A/C systems really stood out. I also had a catalytic converter issue. Another mechanic simply recommended replacing it, which would have cost at least $2,000. Radman explained that considering the age and condition of my 2015 CR-V, such an expensive replacement might not make sense. They gave me the replacement cost but also suggested trying Cataclean first. I tried it, and so far I haven’t had any issues. After a month and several long trips, my A/C is still working well. It’s rare to find this combination of knowledge, transparency, and honesty. Thank you, Radman, for the knowledgeable and honest service. I genuinely appreciate it.

I fix my cars myself but I always go to Radman for AC work. Been coming here for years and they do great work and are fairly priced. The guys are honest and reliable. Very clean waiting room too!

Finding a mechanic who actually understands EVs and is completely trustworthy is hard to come by, but ⁠Radman Repair is excellent. The service was top-notch, they explained everything to me with so much patience, and the overall experience was a 10/10. 100% recommended!
