Motorcar Manor, at 16 Arrow Road in Ramsey, was established in 2013 by New Jersey-native Matthew Maisano and his father Phillip. Both father and son have a deep respect and passion for collector vehicles and the people who can’t get enough of them.

As a teenager growing up in Montvale, Matthew worked in his father’s auto body shop. After attending Seton Hall University for undergraduate and postgraduate study, Matthew found himself firmly planted in the automobile business, focusing on repair/restoration, driving, photography, collecting, sponsor recruitment, and motorsport management. He even garnered the opportunity to oversee all levels of racing, such as Sprint Cars, NASCAR, and Indy Cars. That, however, would not have been easy.

There are several factors that anyone involved in the automobile industry must consider, such as what insurance may be required to run the business smoothly. For example, any type of motor business typically necessitates motor trade insurance, and the owner may need to compare different quotes before settling on the best-suited one. The case of motor insurance becomes all the more vital in a business such as this where the commodity in question is collector-grade cars.

Moreover, while purchasing a car, be it a new, reused, or vintage, there could be a procedure to follow to get the vehicle in your name and make payments in your chosen method. For instance, you might have to explore car invoice prices, holdback percentages, or dealer incentive amounts, which can increase or decrease the total value of the vehicle. If you are interested to dig deeper into the value of a car, you can consider searching for what is invoice pricing and how it can affect your budget for the car purchase.

Anyway, after a six-year stint in Charlotte, North Carolina, Matthew was called back to the Garden State. Now residing in Woodcliff Lake with his wife and three children, he chose Ramsey for the location of Motorcar Manor, citing its proximity to the New York border and easy highway access.

The 29,000-square-foot space provides clean, secure, safe, affordable, climate-controlled collector vehicle storage with 24/7 video surveillance. The facility also includes an upscale lounge area with Wi-Fi and a well-stocked kitchen. Every vehicle stored at Motorcar Manor is offered complimentary turn-key readiness.
