    I think there are only 2 white HSM coupes. One of them was used as a rental car. If you recall the one that made alot of noise and subsequently folded. The one Albert bought may been the rental unit. That company bought my novitec wheels for the white coupe.

    Most parts of China is super hot in July. Shanghai was 38 before last and it stays warm till Sept. Lots of walking in Xian so spring and autumn is a better time to visit. Was told winter gets to a low of between -1 to -10. It helps if a SWT is available for heating:D

    Yup,

    I may be the idiot that bought the rental unit and i heard it had a damaged under carriage.It came with the polished challenge wheels....
    Apparently the dealer "friend" from Eurokars pre-owned knew the whole story......

    any recourse from the dealer?

    Summer in Xian is very hot. More so than in Shanghai. So guzzle down lots of beer to keep cool and your spirits up! Lots of muslin minority babes there that will help you drink. I remember 2 very large KTVs there...one of them paraded at least 150 syts for us to ...practise our mandarin with!
    BTW, Tsingdao Beer Festival starting soon in Qingdao. Beaches there are full of bigini babes...

    Since it's from Eurokars, you should talk to them. Perhaps Karsono as i am sure he does not want to F up his company's reputation over an issue like this. The challenge wheels came were the original wheels for that car.

    Winky congrats on the new purchase....

    James is a damn prick if he knew the whole story.... Heck maybe he was being nice to me by not replying when I asked him about the white car!! Hahaha

    Any case think you have ended up with a great car second time around. If only wives were as easy to deal with hahahaha

    Either way have heard stories about his strategies at eurokars. Simple comment. If you can help it, don't buy from them, and don't sell back to them either....

    Wow this comes as quite a surprise. Thought they would stick to the traditional soft top for weight saving and performance reasons.

    But being Ferarri, I guess they probably found a way to improve the Cali's roof mechanism and apply to the 458 without any weight penalties.[/QUOTE]


    they probably are weary of the leaking problems of the soft tops

    Tks for yr advice. However I am not sure why reputable dealers like eurokars want to take in or sell cars with such vivid history but I was careless not doing my homework and too trustworthy .

    Do join us once you got another F430. Calvin Ng from SKII have one to sell once his 458 arrive in Dec this yr. Sold by Ital as Used Import early this yr. Do consider it!

    Wah, I took that white F430 for a quick spin around the block and it felt alright. Couldn't quite agree on the price so didn't deal....blessings in disguise for me then. Didn't you send the car in to Ital for a check before you sign on the dotted line?

    Guess dealers will be dealers..always best to do our due diligence.

    At least you found yourself another F430 so go drive and forget the unpleasant experience.

    Hearing these stories make me feel oh so entrepreneurial again....maybe I should expand my auto business now to include becoming a dealer,but one with ethics and morals. I too have had enough sometimes of car dealers.

    How about a dealership where the tag line is Great Cars, by Supercar Lovers...... hehehehhehe......... and we all sell any of our machines through this.....
