    Must have bought 5 different F cars from steven...
    He had a good Heart, just a little too Greedy!

    Just for the Record...This is what I heard........

    Steven was offered a plea deal....For years ,He was Bilking Ferrari North America out of Hundreds of thousands in phony warranty claims...Ferrari said OK...

    Heres the deal....Either you surrender what had been worth about 5 million dollars of authorized dealer contract or we prosecute and you go to Jail...

    Easy decision...Steven and father packed up and moved to south Florida.....and waived prosecution...Anyone hear anything different???

    In 85 or 86 I remember sitting in a 288 Gto in his Showroom...He was asking $80,000.00 for it...I bought the 308 quatro valve instead..Duh!

    i remember visiting NYC as a kid (before I moved here as an adult) and stopping by his place on 34th with my dad to drool on his cars.

    quick google sniff shows he's still in the business:

    all i know is 550 and 456 prices keep sinking (fantastic), but my real dream (Daytona) keeps rising!
