Ferrari is the worse brand ! Ferrari Stolen From Newport !

Once you accept and cash the insurance company's check (which the car owner did), lawsuit options are severely curtailed. Cashing the check is de facto acceptance of the full payment of the claim.

 

Sometimes there are customers that businesses are glad to be rid of!

 

Its true. In a select few cases I have instructed my customer service to not apologize and give nothing because we wanted to get rid of the customer permanently.

 

Rallying the Ferrari community to bring down a multi-million dollars business for his personal gain is despicable.

 

I would call it supply and demand, free market, capitalism ...

What is going to be investigated? They are selling cars at MSRP, they are selling used cars at market value ( what a buyer is willing to pay )

Just because you are not willing to understand that they were willing to take substantial loss to offer you a new car at MSRP does not mean that they did not offer you something that has value to many many others in the Ferrari Community .

And we are still only hearing your 2nd hand opinion of what happened and how the actual owner of the Ferrari in question has been treated.

In the end, there is another Lamborghini on the road with a satisfied owner... and there is an 458 that needs alot of attention to be made right again.

I really do empathize with the situation...


Signed... confused

 

The Ferrari dealer is not a "small business". It's a "multi-million" dollar business as I stated on my comment.
"Be careful who you give your keys to because you may never see your car again," - These are your words and you're not attempting to shut the business down? Surely you jest! You have an axe to grind. Drive your Lambo more and move on!

 

After 24 pages you still haven't made an argument that makes sense. I feel bad that your girlfriend's car was stolen but most of that empathy has been washed away by the written nonsense that the two year old car was "special" and somehow became a family "heirloom" because she had a relative that made something of himself.

As you have discovered, both arguments fall on deaf ears with the insurance company, the car dealership and likely with any court in the US. Why? Because what you are trying to get is MORE MONEY. You can paint it with telling us all about the bad customer service and poor business practices but all that would have gone away if they gave you MORE MONEY.

By your own words you indicate that posting on Fchat is only happening because they didn't give you MORE MONEY. It is a disingenuous argument (bordering on libel and extortion) to make. Fortunately most US courts see through this type of nonsense. As others have pointed out.....if it was totaled in an accident....would you be making the same nonsensical arguments?

Scratch that ......of course you would. Why? Because you would want MORE MONEY.

 

Dogs and cats, sleeping together... mass hysteria.

 

Benignetti-Scarfiotti,

While I can certainly appreciate that you are upset, and even the best of us get carried away during disagreements from time to time, getting personal or nasty with other members is not tolerated. Please exercise some self-restraint with your tone. If you are "over the absolute stupidity of these chats", nobody is forcing you to stay and you may leave.

All the best,
Andrew.

 

Please do consider yourselves lucky. There are many of us on the forum are not in your shoes.

When I hear this story I feel for your girl friend(?) but 2 things. We have heard from you, not the actual "victim". So we don't even have her side of the story (after 10 pages I read here and how many on the other thread?) We don't have the dealerships side of the story either. It's a bad situation but hard to pass judgment. I can't take your side or the dealerships side at this point. One thing I have learned is there are 3 sides to every story, yours, theirs and the truth.

 

This thread has gone the way of several in the past. I think one major thing to consider is the main motivation of OP, which seems obvious when one notices his join date was 12/22/17 the same date as his first post. This thread is just a method to “get even” with F of Newport Beach and bash the Ferrari brand, not so much to inform the general Ferrari public.

So with that in mind and not hearing from the actual injured party or the dealership I would think most Fchatters would be inclined to withhold judgement relative to how the dealer responded to the bad situation they were responsible for creating by not having better control over their customers vehicles.

I have to ask. Why did the owner settle with the insurance company ?

 

So how much did you get from the insurance? How much of a discount did you want on a 488? As for the dealership leaving the keys in the car, did they leave to keys overnight or was just in the day time so they can move cars around? Does the Lamborghini dealership you bought your car from have security in the service area? I am asking because looking at all your posts, the dealership in my opinion did everything the could to accommodate you. As for security, I have never really seen security guards at high end dealership's, I could be wrong. I am sorry of what happened to your car, a really crappy situation.

 

Seriously?

Your girlfriend buys you a Ferrari and you call it at "heirloom"???? That is infamously ridiculous when you demand the Dealer should pay you the original sale price of the car. Your girlfriend at least had the sense to cash the insurance check. Also..... you really need to work on your sentence construction and spelling.

BTW what happened to your promise of "being done" with Fchat?

 

After reading the nonsensical posts from the OP. He sounds a lot like the dude from Beverley Hills (curb stoning & not his car ads) previously going off on rants about almost anything.Now he just wants to argue with anyone who does not agree with his position. Sometimes the Internet gives a voice to people who should be ignored.......

 

Ferrari of Newport Beach doesn't look like "a very small business" to me. You even filed a complaint at this website: https://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/ferrari-newport-beach/newport-beach-california-92663/ferrari-newport-beach-ferrari-newport-beach-service-center-ferrari-san-diego-ferrari-1413671
Your motive is clear. You want to take down the dealership in order to make you feel whole again.

It is amazing to me how many people do not know the difference between "your" and "you're". I don't know if it is laziness or general stupidity but I keep seeing this pop up more and more.
