    Just made a verbal deal on a 2013 458 with an outfit called Crave Luxury Auto in The Woodlands, TX. I haven't seen the car in person and I need to find someone capable of doing a PPI on the car. Apparently the dealer doesn't do them because of liability.

    The dealer DOES have service record on the car and it's been serviced there regularly. Can anyone recommend someone in The Woodlands who would look over the car, paint & body, interior imperfections and evidence of paint work?

    Also, any intel on Crave Luxury Automotive? It's the TDF Spider.

    Thanks!

    I serious hope you are NOT going to pay $204,750 for that spider !

    Nice yes … but ….

    Many others equally for far less for sale imo.

    And remember: a real PPI can only be conducted by a FERRARI DEALER. No-one else.

    This PPI delivers aan officiall Ferrari document and looks at 199 different points.

    May cost you max of $ 500. And will be kept by Ferrari as moment of throught …

    It may also serve to get extra insurance on the engine and rest of the car.

    Let us know how you went on …

    Good luck with the hunt for your dreamcar !

    I can’t comment on a dealer to do the poi, but the car looks great. I love the blue dash and stitching and seat belts. Good luck and hopefully your transaction goes as you anticipate!
