Italian police broke up with the fraud of Ferrari earlier this year, confiscated 22 cars, 14 of which have already been sold to luxury sports car collectors. Fake Ferraris, located in Italy, were used by the Pontiac Fieros, which were modified to pass the Ferrari Testarossas. The fake industry grew by 1000 percent in Europe from 1998 to 2004 in accordance with EU customs and goes beyond designer handbags, shoes, watches and clothing. Before you buy a luxury car, you do your homework so that you can distinguish a real Ferrari from a fake.
1) Who sells Ferrari? Do a little homework about who the seller is. Are they an authorized Ferrari dealer? If he is in a preliminary order, where did he come from? Check the owner’s documents, service records and documents. Most fake Ferrari are sold as classic models from the 1960s to the 1980s.
2) Do not be fooled by your appearance. Most fakes Ferrari look the same from a distance - the same taillights, the same wings, and the exhaust pipes are the same.
3) The interior of a fake Ferrari does not have the same quality of real Ferrari. Never buy a car without personally checking the car or having a knowledgeable expert check it. Look under the hood, the fake Ferrari will have a different engine, frame, suspension, chassis, roof, hood, trunk, doors and brakes. If you are not familiar with the well-known Ferrari engine, stop by your local Ferrari dealer and familiarize yourself with your functions or visit the official Ferrari website at www.FerrariUSA.com to find your nearest authorized dealer.
4) Finally, if the sentence sounds too good to be true, perhaps it is. No one in their right mind would sell a car for $ 300,000 for $ 30,000. Everyone loves to find that hidden deal and the feeling that you just came across the jackpot of all deals with the car, but do not let your emotions get the most out of you. There are a lot of great deals on luxury luxury cars, you just need to go shopping and be smart.
While the popularity of replicas of classic cars is outside the United States, it is sure to debut here soon with our social recognition of possession of counterfeit goods. This once taboo industry has become a booming global business. The Argentine company, Pur Sang, specializes in making copies of the Bugatti Type 37, 35, 43 and 51, which can be distinguished from the real one. They are sold as replicas, but some buyers obviously have no problem adding the Bugatti badge and declaring it as original.
