Black Enzo needed

If anyone has immediate access to a US-spec black Enzo that is actually for sale, please let me know. Please don't take up blog space by making silly little comments on the merits of the Enzo or your opinion on the aesthetics or mechanics of same. Black Enzo "sightings" are also not applicable unless you know the owner and know that the car is actually for sale.

Well aren't you a bit demanding for having 28 posts and no profile...

 

I think the Enzo is a great car. Beautiful both inside and out. I also feel that it captures the true spirit of an F1 race car, mechanically speaking. I think there is a few black enzo owners on this site in California that have been seen around the area - not sure if it's for sale or not! *shrug*

 

Terry Terry Terry...
Attitude like that usually results in a flood of exactly what you didn't ask for.

Perhaps if you offered a finders fee from the undoudtedly significant commission you potentially will earn for finding such a rare beast, it might go some way to softening your really harsh over the top, entirely uncalled for limitations on a public discussion forum. Otherwise I doubt that even if anyone had such rare information, that they would pass it onto you.

 

My buddy saw a Black Enzo at the Wynn hotel one time. It was for sale but is now sold...but my friend saw it!

 

If anyone has Penelope Cruz's phone number, please let me know. I really am looking to date her for real. Please do not post on here how sultry and beautiful she is. I don't want to discuss what I already know. I am just looking for a number so I can date her and not you. In fact, don't even reply to this post. I don't want to hear from you. Just Penelope.


ps Terry, I think the Enzo is an amazing car, has incredible daring and modern lines and wouldn't mind taking the opportunity in telling you so.

FORZA

 

Is it for you personally or are you a dealer or broker?

If the former, then you should fill out your profile so we can know where you are and all that, and if the latter, what compensation are you offering for the assistance to your business/profits from the member who has or can put you in touch with the seller of a black enzo?

 

there can't be many Enzo's in Idaho...

www.mdmeurotics.com usually has a few black ones in stock...

 

OK...I totally forgot to fill out my profile and will do so in coming days. Note that I am not hiding behind some silly user name but I actually put my real name right out there. I am and have been for some time, a professional locater specializing in Ferraris. I have been in the business since 1991 and I have a lot of clients in the US and abroad. I must be doing something right because my business grows every year and my old clients send new clients to me all the time. I do not and will not ever give a rip about the number of posts I make to FerrariChat. Here I stand for quality rather than quantity. Finding Enzos is about the most frustrating thing that I do. Time after time, after a lot of work has gone into a transaction, there is no actual car to buy. Late last week a broker offered me two black Enzos. I took him at his word and passed the information on to the customer. Long story short, there does not seem to be any black Enzos available to him. Two years ago I sent a representative to an address in Las Vegas to verify the location of a black Enzo. We found an abandoned warehouse and no car in sight. Since this is a profession, there is definitely compensation to anyone who actually helps. That compensation varies by the amount of assistance given to us. I apologize for my supposed attitude but if you had been down the streets I have walked, you would understand where I am coming from.

 

You gotta pay to play. The difficulties involved in finding an Enzo is exactly why you are hired. They are hard to find, and there are too many people out there looking to waste somebody's time.
As for finding a car, the reality is that everybody has a price. Find a black car and make them an offer they can't refuse.

Thats a fair response Terry. I wish you well in the search and o let us know how you get on.

Would a European Enzo be of any use at all or does it really have to be US spec?

Matthew

 

It has to be a US car or a Dubai car which is a US car originally delevered to Dubai.

 

Yah, I saw it at the Wynn . . . I was like "is it for sale?" . . . and the sales said "maybe" . . . a few minutes later, he said it was sold! (A 30 min story summerized in one very long line LOL)

Good luck finding one, I guess?

 

It's in Calgary, Canada now.

 

From the November 1999 Sports Car Market, "Two months ago, Terry Godbout, of Coeur d’Alene, Idaho found a micro-car enthusiast eager to own our 1958 Isetta 300. The final price was $8,000 and the new owner paid Godbout a commission as well." From Isetta to Enzo in 8 years, we all had to start somewhere.

Smile!

why would you post that link??

 

I have 3 red enzos for sale but I'm spray painting one black tomorrow. Let me know if you want it. I can also spray paint the rims black to match at no extra cost.

 

Good question. When someone appears on FerrariChat making outrageous claims or requests while choosing to maintain anonymity, I seek to determine from public domain sources who the phantom might be. Additionally, I've lost count of how many people claim to be rare car locators and brokers on the web when most should just open a dealership in Second Life and leave real car enthusiast alone. With regard to a Black Enzo, there are only a few very well known and reputable brokers, dealers and VIN trackers that know who owns them and who the likely buyers will be when and if one becomes available. When someone like Mr. Godbout suddenly materializes claiming to have a buyer and seeking a black Enzo, he has painted himself a wannbe.......

 

so you post personal things?? Would you like it if all of a sudden your family pictures popped up on a forum with people you don't even know??

 

Ah, lets see.......did I post any photos? No.

I actually have no idea if the gentlemen in the photo link is the same person representing himself on this board as a car broker. By definition, there is nothing private about the public domain. For many professionals it is critical intelligence to be applied in daily business. In private lives it is equally useful to shield ourselves from possible charlatans.

one black on black Enzo for sale. 2900 miles.

 

FYI, I located the 58 Isetta as a favor for my accountant. We bought it from Keith Martin of Sports Car Market. Everybody was quite happy.

Regarding my alleged "wannabe" status (Thank you Nerd): Ask the GM of any US Ferrari dealership if they know me. Ask Sheehan. Actions speak louder than words. I work diligently to locate specific cars for clients which includes so many F40s and F50s that I have lost count. FerrariChat has proven to be quite useful to my business as well but I certainly do a lot more than spend the entire day "chatting" on the blog.

 

There is a group of about 8 gentlemen who arrange the sale of virtually every significant Ferrari that changes hands in this country. I have yet to see most of them participate in FerrariChat. These guys almost exclusively do Ferraris that change hands for $1M to $15M. If one of them started using FerrariFChat and only had 10 posts, would that make him a wannabe?

 

I do believe you....but I think most of us just found your first post a little bit too damanding for a new guy. If you want to be taken seriously here, I think you need a better openning paragraph.

 

Honestly Terry, good luck and happy hunting. The "about 8 gentlemen" to which you refer don't participate on FerrariChat as they know very well that it would only sully their reputation. At one time or another, this forum has driven away its most valuable historians and technical advisors. For the vast majority of Ferraris which change hands, those well under $200K, no doubt FerrariChat is useful portal for you. Having owned countless (according to my wife) vintage and modern sports and race cars, my experience with "car brokers" is that most are crooks, liars, thieves and wannabes. A minority are professionals and a handful are honest hobbyists (Hi Dino!). I suspect you fall into the latter category. Again, good luck!
