Need Help locating Enzo s/n 132648

Welcome back, iceman....

 

Congrats on the enzo. Great to see you back Michael.

 

Iceman welcome back! Congratulations on the "new" Enzo Always a pleasure reading what you have to say.

 

Welcome back Mike, good to have you back on board. Any news lately?

You've missed my pm's....

 

If Mike says he bought it, we have no reason to think he's lying. I would say the case is closed. Although it would be nice to find out anything we can about the scammer so that no one here (or anywhere else for that matter) gets burned by this guy later on down the road.

Also sounds to me like Bops is collecting Enzos. He could very well create a shortage in the Enzo market, thus driving prices up.

 

Obviously a fake title, says it is a Ferrar, is that kind of like Krab, or geniune immitation leather?

Sorry, couldn't resist!

What an intriguing story. I once followed up on a Testarossa that was listed in Dupont Registry that was for sale in OK. There was an email address, a name, and a fax number (which wasn't even in the same area code where the supposed owner lived - Suspicious much?). With a little research I hunted down the phone number (there was only one listed) for that name in that town. I called her up and found out that she had recently been a vicitm of identity theft. When I told her that someone was listing a 1989 Ferrari Testarossa and had her as the seller she was freaked out. She was extremely grateful that I had let her know. I contacted Dupont to have them pull the ad and their response puzzled me. Long story short it eventually was pulled.

If it sounds too good to be true, it most likely is. Don't wire money, don't take their word for it. If someone is reluctant to show you more photos, or wants you to wire money (100% refundable of course just to validate that you are a serious buyer) run, don't walk away from the deal.

I suspect that with the economy in the state that it is in right now that scams like these (in an effort to extract deposits) from unsuspecting would be buyers looking for the deal of the century will become more common place.

 

Evitez de parler même à Xavier. Si c'est de lui qu'il s'agit. Ce n'est probablement pas de sa faute, i.e. il ne doit pas être directement en cause mais il a tendance à croire à n'importe quoi/n'importe qui.

 

Une personne suffisament renseignée. Je ne connais pas personnellement Xavier mais j'ai suivi quelques unes de ses "tribulations". La plupart de ses Enzos ne sont pas physiques si je peux dire. C'est du vent et cela l'est non pas du fait qu'il veuille frauder mais du fait qu'il est très très mal renseigné.

 

If one was to be so 'misinformed' so often, surley 'Xavier' should give up the dealing, or mabye just Enzo's, he seems to not know the difference between a real one or a scam.

Best
Michael James

 

Je n'ai rien à cacher, je suis moderateur sur ce forum. J'ai juste eu contact avec des professionnels de la branche qui le connaissent bien. Pour plus d'informations (parce que là on va en offtopic le plus complet) on peut parler via messages privés. Cordialement

 

If you google Executive Autos in Ketchum,OK, it is obvious they don't have an Enzo. I could not even find a website and it says their annual sales in $350k annually. I bet they do not even know.

 

Update : Bonhams : c.2004 Ferrari Enzo Berlinetta Chassis no. ZFFCW56AX301 132648 Engine no. Tipo F140B 75017

 

From the link below
"Recovered by the National Crime Agency and sold under the Proceeds of Crime Act, with the proceeds of sale going towards the public purse"

 

Can't believe there is no mention of the car previously being involved in an accident...

What is it with Ferraris, you don't have these problems with Porsches!
