Anyone in the Calabasas Area that can look at a car?

Looking at a particular car and before flying all the way across the country to see it, was wondering if anyone on here is in the Calabasas area to put eyes on it.

It's currently near exit 21, Balboa Blvd in Encino.

I have a meeting in Santa Monica in a few weeks, but would like to get a PPI done on the car before getting there. Don't want to waste the money getting it to and from the shop as well as the labor costs for the PPI if it doesn't check out.

Be willing to cover lunch and gas expense for someone that I am familiar with here on the boards.

Thanks!

There is another one I am looking at in Austin, TX. I'll try and reach out to SakhirM4 on that one.

You just want me to take a physical look? I do basic maintenance on older cars, but this might be well past my technical skills.

Now, with an eye for paint/cleanliness, I could make a viewing. Is it at a dealer, or private party? This is my off-Friday, although I do have a massage scheduled for 2:00. I know, first-world problems.

I see 70% chance of rain for Friday right now. That goes away, it's a good excuse to take the motorcycle for a croooze!!!! PM details, I'll see if I can work it into schedule.

Deep tissue, leave the oil on all day. In her garage the last time, it normally ends with a hug.

Also, please don't forget your reading glasses so you can inspect the car properly... Don't need you inspecting the wrong car or something...

You might fool them but I know very well that you knew I was close by all the time, you just didn't want to acknowledge someone from the wrong side of the grade.

I have bad memory !!! It's cuz of the glaucoma, you see? I have to take this particular medicine...

Besides, getting to the valley from the other side of town can very much be like crossing state lines at the length of time it could take to get there... You might as well be in another state if you wanna get technical...

I'm in San Diego but I could always drive up in a pinch. Don't know much about Ferraris however, the extent of my experience with them is getting a ride in a family friend's 360 Modena about 10 years ago....
