    Hi, I'm looking on purchasing a Ferrari from Foreign Car Italia in Greensboro North Carolina and wanted to know if anyone had a good experience or not so good experience with them.
    Let me know. Thanks.

    They are a long time sponsor - have you tried a search for previous threads ? Maybe search on Greensboro to get better results

    Bought a slantnose 911 from them a few years ago. They were great to deal with. Looking for another 3.2 slantnose as I type this. :)

    Yep, visited there a few months ago since they are my local dealership. I agree that Hank was a great guy to meet with and talk to. The dealership is amazing as well. I had heard they had a 308 in when I saw Steve on Saturday. He hadnt seen the car yet though.

    I think Hanks screen name is HankCarp here on FChat.

    I understand that hank is ace.

    that said, I was in a rental car several years back when they first opened the charlotte location that was located on independence blvd. I went it to meet the folks and ask them for some guidance on their service capability. I was not given the time of day and must say I was clearly not Ferrari buyer or owner material in their eyes (despite being a multiple Ferrari and Porsche owner). I was offended and vowed to NEVER do business of any manner with that group. such a departure from what Steve B. had created all those years ago.

    I suspect you will have better service if you deal with the hank and the Greensboro group. good luck.

    I didn't buy my 328 GTS from FCI but the gentleman I bought it from did. Met Steve at a track event at VIR when I first looked at the car and he was extremely nice and helpful providing me information (overall condition, work they had done to it before they sold it, etc.).

    Still own this vehicle after 9-1/2 years without any major problems. Best car I've ever owned!

    They come highly recommended.
