My Review of Encore Exotics:
I bought a $60k car from him and week later had to have the engine removed because of a problem he knew or should have known about.
The problems started immediately. Driving it home, the car popped out of 2nd gear while decelerating a couple times getting on and off the highway. I didn't think much of it at the time, but my mechanic immediately diagnosed it as damaged synchros for 2nd gear. In total, I paid about $6500 to have this problem fixed. Why didn't I use the fantastic warranty that came with the car you ask? Because the warranty company, Ultimate Warranty Corporation was out of business! The warranty that "came" with the car was useless.
And the reason I would never buy a car from Mario at Encore Exotics is this work order describing the problem that was in the car. So much for his "meticulous inspection". In the very car he claims had "no known defects", there was a work order from 6 weeks prior describing the transmission problem.
