    I believe this to be the same car that just sold at the Leake auction in Dallas. It presented well, but I did not see under it.

    They are 5 minutes from my house, I pass them daily and know Andy since he was manager at LoH. They don't sell junk from what I have seen.

    Hit & miss at some auctions but an excellent question. The most of these 400's I've seen had a rough life.

    Mark would be closer to Crave than FoH and at FoH you will pay premium prices for the same service.

    Mark at Sphere is the best PPI guy in town. Full disclosure, Mark used to work for Sphere, he would tell you that himself.

    Crave doesn't sell junk....

    Definately the same car that sold at Leake Auction.

    It sold for 20k + buyer premium + shipping. They have about 23k in it if nothing needed to be done on the car. There's your negotiating point.

    Slight correction: Mark still works at Sphere. He owns Sphere. :)

    I think I know what you meant, though...

    Still not quite correct. Mark never worked for Crave, to my knowledge.

    I'll stop talking about Mark now. He's on FC; he can speak for himself. :)

    I know Crave very well having bought both my Maserati and California from them. Top flight dealer of exotics. I'm a neighbor of Karl Stomberg (owner & partner). Karl and Andy run a very good business and I have found that I can buy in complete confidence from them. They also took three of my cars in trade from me at very fair prices.

    Most of the guys that I work out with here at the gym in the woodlands (Carlton woods) buy their cars from Karl and Andy and I've never heard any complaints.

    Hope this helps.

    That must be one hell of a gym parking lot then......must be more eye candy outside than inside of the place.

    I really want a 400i to go next to my 308, but it has to be a 5 speed. If only I had more garage space...

    They can speak for themselves but FoH is not in the PPI business.

    Last time the subject came up, anyway..
    Good Luck!!

    Lamborghini of Houston knows Ferraris, and they might be the place to ask for a PPI..
