I'd buy from Bruce. Good guy and you will get a good car, I am sure.
Good luck.

 

THANKS SAM

FORGOT TO MENTION..NEW DOUBLE DISC CLUTCH ALSO...ALL WORK PERFORMED AT WWOC...........

 

Bruce, thought your deal was already done?

 

Anthing I have ever seen at that dealer was a "real driver" type car(driven hard, put away wet). If you are serious jump on Bruces car, it's fully serviced and even had Carbon McCoy as a driver - certainly at some point that will had $$ to the vehicle.

 

I agree with Dave. It would take you 40 minutes to drive down from Greenwich to Astoria, where they are located. Why not feast your eyes on these unique purveyors of "collectible" automobiles yourself ?

 

congrats lamrossa on your find...
will you outfitting it with lamebo parts?

 

btw... one of the mechanics at cc, i think its guiseppe? has a red 308?
with parts from different ferrari models he fabricated... he has enzo lights and
rear diffuser, 360 side top and bottom intakes, 550 nose, etc... looks very unique. very nice paint job too.

 

I would avoid any of those guys in the Northern Boulevard vicinity. It's like buying from Exotic Car Wholesalers or The Auto Toy Store...

 

... wait a minute... i bought my car at the Auto Toy Store.... no wonder!!

JUST KIDDING!

 

just buy burce's car eventhough it's too much money! just kidding. just buy his car. TR if not taken care of are money pit and believe me i know from experience. i am sure from what i know from bruce the car has got to be in good condition.

 

Lamarossa,
Congrats on the decision to step up to a TR - fantastic cars, but with equally fantastic repairs if their not maintained well (and sometime even if they are).

I wouldn't rule this car out just based on the dealer, but I would have the car checked out by a real Ferrari mechanic before buying. If this place is serious, they will not mind you bringing the car to a mechanic of your choosing or bringing the mechanic to them for a look.

Best case is that the car checks out and the money spent gives you piece of mind that you made the right decision. Worst case scenario, you spend $500-$1000 checking the car out, it doesn't check out and you don't buy it, and it saves you MUCH more $$ in the future on car repairs.

Best of luck.
David

 

nice ava emil. that's sick!

 

Hey also think about it -- your current monstros--er, car is Yellow, Bruce's car is Yellow....keepin' it in the family!

I wouln't buy anything from that dealer unless you do a thorough check of the car. The garage that they keep the cars in are mostly vintage wrecks or totally abused cars. I would compare that place to a dog pound would abused dogs. Really! Once in a while he'll have something nice on the sidewalk, but thats the extent of it. You get what you pay for, and with a Testarossa, you want a good example or......good luck!

 

Wait.

The "Lamarossa" is real? I thought it was a fictional character like a Jackalope or the Abominable Snowman or Hillary Duff.

 

Don't start this again... just go to the tobay beach thread.

 

oh spliffffffffffff lambarossa is real i thought it was just a funny joke spread around forums

your like a real urban ledgend

 

True dat!

 

don't buy a TR, the cost to fix it every two weeks will be more then the car is worth in less then a year. Besides as we saw out on LI your lamarosa is faster! Just get it painted.......

 

that would be cool but they are not a cheep maitanance car
