CS Market

Mike or Stokpro, any idea why this car cant keep a steady home (the blu car)? Looks like an amazing example.

 

Mike,

The red Stradale on Long Island was sold 139048 Don't know the price. They were asking $159,000.

That's my old car. I bought it from the snakes at Scottsdale Ferrari who never disclosed the damage. After a lot of complaining, they finally bought the car back from me at a significant loss (to me). The dealership then tried to resell the car on eBay a few more times--again not disclosing the ~$40k in damage even though there was a 100% chance that they had the info as I faxed it to them for proof. They then sold it at auction to a dealership in Hawaii again not disclosing the damage. I called the dealership in Hawaii to let them know--the guy was pissed yet continued to sell it on his website without disclosing the damage. The car is actually not bad looking and the work was done well--I just think the person purchasing should have the right to decide if that's what he or she wants. FWIW they bought the car back from me for $130k and sold it at auction for about the same price.

 

Sorry to hear about your misfortune. That is why this forum is so important to people like me who are new to Ferrari and the Challenge Stradale. The car is now being sold by Blackhorse in Florida for $165 thousand. I had a friend go look at the car and he was told the car has no damage or paint work. When he confronted them about the 2 past accidents they said they would look into it and he was told that some of the information on this forum and challenge-stradale.com is 3rd party talk, not real evidence and often false.

I can't pass judgement because I wasn't there (blackhorse if your listening ,3rd party information), but maybe blackhorse doesn't know the car has a bad past history and they too have been taken on the wild ride of this car. After all, the carfax report is clean. Goes to prove, carfax is just a guide and not conclusive.

 

Yep, same story from Scottsdale Ferrari. Dealerships hate forums in this scenario because if there was no Internet that car would sell for $165k. I actually found out about the damage through this forum and made sure I checked with Stokpro before I purchased the next one a year or so later. I won't be making that mistake again--I just hope the same thing doesn't happen to someone else. But at the end of the day if this is our biggest problem we are probably doing ok. BTW, the damage history is well documented and was fixed through a factory authorized dealership's body shop.

 

Anyone have a pulse on a Nero/Nero? =)

The itch has been growing...

 

Does a Bear sh*t in the woods? Yes, I know a great deal on one. Surprised that none of the other 3 guys that inquired on the same nero/nero CS haven't pulled the trigger.

 

I hope it's not the Nero one we've been discussing!

 

No sir. That one is nero w/ red & black alcantara.

 

What!? Give me the skinny please!

 

This one?

wow. sorry to hear.
thanks for sharing the story on this car.

 

PM sent

Bingo!

Still enjoying your CS?

 

Only one for sale in the UK at the moment - has been this way for at least a month now.

yeah. The problem is that I need to find some clear bra b/c the sides are getting dinged up good.

 

Why is this low mile CS selling for so low? What a steal.

 

Call & ask =)

An engine replacement was involved. I had inquired about this one a year ago. But as stokpro pointed out, a few years down the road that "mark" will probably be inconsequential.

 

Is it difficult and expensive to purchase a car in Canada and have it shipped to the US?

 

Not really, but the paperwork is a PITA imo =)

 

Nice giallo CS at Ferrari of Denver!

http://www.ferrariofdenver.com/index.cfm/ID/14/Pre-Owned

 

It's been for sale since Sept. and has been discussed at length in the past. Fchatter's CS.

 

Is that the one that was damaged then repaired? If so, I gotta check vin#s...lol

 

Inquired about this car a few days ago through the dealer's website... still no response.

Give them a call? I wouldn't be surprised if a deal is already being inked given the number of PM's I've received on this car.

 

In the background of a Copart listing I noticed what appears to be a CS, http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?p=142043203#post142043203.

However no CS listed on Copart's site at the moment.
