    I am buying a classic Ferrari from Ferrari in San Antonio and need to have a thorough pre purchase inspection performed. Any ideas or recommendations? Don't want to just take the dealers word for it. Thanks.

    I am urging you to do a prepurchase inspection. Do not take their word for it. Thread cautiously.

    I have not dealt with SA but I have dealt with other ferrari dealers, in texas and out of state.

    If they dont want to do a PPI, walk away.

    Unfortunately, the ferrari marketing they are selling you are car now so that you will buy a car again later is gone. Its all talk.

    Thank you but I was able to find a company to inspect the car. They found a few minor issues which I was able to have the dealer repair prior to transporting the car to me.

    I have a 1989 328 GTS. But the other Ferrari I have is a 488.

    Yeah I had a 328 too. Having a ‘70s vintage Ferrari require a sense of humor when it comes to parts and repairs.
