Default Service Advisor recommendation in Socal

My best attempts are doing a search across all the forums show recommendations that are at least a few years old and all the listed SAs are no longer at their respective dealer service shops.

I'm coming up on my 1 year soon for my GT4 and wouldn't mind finding somewhere great for that first service, any warranty work, and to build a relationship with a great SA. I dream of finding someone as awesome as my Audi guy, he's been my SA for over a decade and it's been spectacular!
I'm closest to these in order: DTLA, South Bay, BH, McKenna.

Much appreciated!

All depends on where exactly you are located and how far you are willing to travel. Afterall SoCal is big, lots of territory.

I mentioned I'm closest to these 4 dealerships: DTLA, South Bay, BH, McKenna.

I wouldn't want to drive beyond say 25 miles at best, which would be WH.

I would recommend Domenic from Circle Porsche in Long Beach, he went above and beyond in servicing my car last month.

Although I'm in Orange County, I make the trek to Riverside Porsche for Charlie Kim. He was my SA back when he was with McKenna BMW and has taken care of me for over 8 years.
