Fraud
Nick and his employees are expert ripoff artists so buyer beware. They will fast talk you and lie to you just to get your money. They hide problems lie about problems and cover them up so you are stuck with them once you leave. After you leave with your purchase and start finding things wrong they will not assist you or even call you back. Future Classics are professional classic car and motorcycle rip off artists so buyer beware!

Misrepresented vehicle
My experience with Future Classics was just VERY frustrating on two fronts:

1) the car I purchased was represented as "strong, etc." (I have their original ad); pictures on web-site (and auction) were before a crappy paint job (probably by his Maaco buddies) was done. The car has been a MAJOR

project (requiring new exhaust system, one of the exh. Manifolds was cracked, fuel tank was fouled, carb had to be rebuilt, rear suspension (shocks & springs) replaced, etc., etc., etc. - to the tune of more than $12, 000 (I am trying NOT to add it all up, because it makes me ill), then

had a tremendously difficult time tracking down some original documentation that should have come with the car - almost like they did not want me to get in touch with the previous owner (I was told that he was "weird" and

un-cooperative - could have been, but something doesn't seem right???);

2) I left another car up there, as I was told that I could have some work done (windshield wiper motor installed), and nothing was done for close to a month. Thankfully, I got that one out of there ASAP.

I have reconciled that I signed an "As-is" document at purchase, and have viewed it as an expensive learning lesson, but will NEVER recommend Future Classics to anyone. I have also heard that Nick is not supposed to be involved in auto business (e.g. had license pulled or something), but I can not confirm that.

Sold me a car with a bad engine
My friend bought a classic car from Future Classics in the beginning of March and was told by the owner, Nick DeMartino that the engine was just rebuilt 3000 miles ago. My friend asked Nick why the car was running so rough and Nick said the car sat for awhile and needed to be driven again. Nick stated that the car would not have any engine issues for the next 20 years since it was a rebuilt straight six cyliner engine and that he would tune the car up before pickup so it ran more smoothly. I was witness to all of the discussions.

Once my friend got the car home it was found that the choke on the carbeurator was broken so he took it to his mechanic. First the mechanic found that the carbeurator needed to be rebuilt, one of the points were broken, the distributor cap was no good, and some other minor issues. Once the rebuilt carbeurator was put onto the car it was still running rough and stalling out so the mechanic found that the 5th cylinder was not firing and there was no compression. It was then found that the 5th cylinder was completely dead proving that the engine was not rebuilt. Nick DeMartino lied about the condition of the engine and misrepresented the vehicle to my friend. Nick was looked to as an subject matter expert and took advantage of my friend not being a mechanic.


There were other issues with the vehicle as well. For example, the paint on the car was peeling off and had rust spots so my friend inquired about having it painted. Nick's exact words were, "I have a great bodyshop that can sand off the car and repaint it whatever color you like at a great price. He does great work". After paying for the car Nick told my friend the following Saturday that MAACO would be doing the work. He stated that MAACO would be sanding off the blue paint along with the rust spots before repainting the car black. This was not the case because there is blue paint showing through the black paint.


Future Classics had my friends car for a total of four weeks and did not fix the paint or engine issues while it was in their possession. He complained repeatedly through phone calls, emails, and even drove 2 1/2 hours roundtrip four times without Future Classics fixing the issues the way they initially agreed upon before taking the car. Now on top of being overcharged for a car that does not run correctly Future Classics has the nerve to try and bully/threaten him with libel and slander charges for telling his story to the public which is a complete outrage and joke.


So I am emailing you to inform you of the practices this company chooses to take. It is completely up to you to do whatever you want with this information but please beware of Future Classics NJ on RT 88 in Lakewood New Jersey. Please do not get taken advantage of like my friend.


I am sure some of you may be friends of Nick and his employees and that is fine but do not waste your time replying with hate mail as it will not be read and just deleted. This email is intended for those that may be unaware of the above practices.

Scammers
((((( - DON'T BUY FROM FUTURE CLASSICS LLC ON RT 88!!! - )))))

FIRST THEY DID NOT HAVE THE OLD COLOR TAKEN OFF THE CAR WHEN REPAINTING EVEN THOUGH THAT WAS AGREED UPON, THEN THEY JUST TOUCHED UP THE REALLY BAD SPOTS BY DABBING

THEY HAD THE CAR FOR FOUR WEEKS

THEY TOLD ME THE CAR WAS RUNNING ROUGH DUE TO IT NEEDING TO BE DRIVING AND BROKEN IN BECAUSE IT SAT FOR AWHILE AND THE ENGINE WAS REBUILT

I FOUND THE CHOKE WAS BROKEN, THE CARBEURATOR WAS BAD, AND ONE OF THE PISTONS WAS NOT FIRING SO THE CAR WAS RUNNING ON FIVE CYLINDERS

WHEN I CALLED THEY PRETENDED LIKE THEY HAD NO IDEA AND ACCUSED ME OF TAKING THE CAR AND BRINGING IT BACK. ONCE I PROVED I NEVER TOOK THE CAR THEN THEY CHANGED THEIR STORY TO, "I THOUGHT YOU TOOK THE CAR AND BROUGHT IT BACK".

SO BASICALLY THEY HAD MY CAR FOR ALMOST A MONTH AND DID NOT PERFORM THE WORK AGREED UPON CORRECTLY. THEY ALSO HID THE PROBLEMS OF THE ENGINE BECAUSE THEY KNEW I WAS NOT A MECHANIC. I TOLD THEM IF I RECEIVE A PARTIAL REFUND TO HELP PAY FOR SOME REPAIRS THEN I WOULD NOT BE AS UNSATISFIED BUT THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO DO THIS.

AFTER TAKING THE VEHICLE TO A REPUTABLE MECHANIC IT WAS FOUND THAT NOT ONLY WAS THE CARBEURATOR BAD BUT THE FIFTH CYLINDER WAS DEAD SO THE ENGINE MUST BE REBUILT EVEN THOUGH FUTURE CLASSICS SWORE THE ENGINE WAS REBUILT IN 2002 AND ONLY 3000 HAVE BEEN PUT ON THE NEW ENGINE.

PLEASE BEWARE OF FUTURE CLASSICS LLC ON RT 88 IN LAKEWOOD NEW JERSEY AND LET ANYONE LOOKING TO BUY A CLASSIC CAR TO KNOW HOW THIS BUSINESS OPERATES.

DO NOT GET SCAMMED BY FUTURE CLASSICS!!!

Lied about the paint job on my car!
Future Classics lied about the repainting of my vehicle. They told me that the old color was sanded off of the car during the repainting of my vehicle. When I pointed out the old color they tried to say it was just the lighting. I insisted that this was not the case so they kept the car for an additional week to perform the work promised. After taking my car home the following week it was found that the old color is still showing through and the work was not performed as agreed upon. Future Classics is not cooroporating with fixing the vehicle as agreed upon. This is a totally unprofessional and dishonest company so please beware my fellow consumers. Perform extensive research on Future Classics LLC to be informed of their practices. Thank you for your time.

Rip off
The owner, Nick lied to me. He told me the car was a great daily driver and it almost overheated on the way home due to multiple issues including a bad carb. I had the car repainted because he told me that he had a great bodyshop. He said they would sand off the blue and repaint black. He sent it to MAACO and the blue is still showing through even after them supposedly fixing it. He said he would put on dual exhaust but instead split the pipe after the muffler to make it "look like" dual exhaust. Nick completely took advantage of me and ripped me off.
