Porsche Dealers

What are your guys favorite Porsche dealers / SA's ?

Been searching inventory for CA, ATL, FL, etc dealers. Found some nice spec'd cars.

Also what's your opinion on the power steering plus? Drove a 911 TS with it today, unsure about it but have not driven one without.

I know a very good dealer in PA, but I wonder what you are looking for. If anything I can ask him if they got anything in stock. I know they shipped a couple cars to the west cost just recently.

I ordered a white one spec'd exactly that way from Hennessy before buying my cab. It is due in any day.


Also, I think they have an agate grey on the lot.

I can hook you up with the right person there if you like.

Auto Gallery in CA... Ginormous. I worked my deal over the phone and closed the agreement in 20 minutes. 5 hours later a flatbed showed up at my house with the Blod Clot.

Appreciate it.

I was telling someone this story this weekend. My sense is that this isn't just a matter of discussion with GM. It's not like they had some poor processes needing to be fixed. This was behavioral. It's a culture that doesn't place customers first. And culture is comes from the top.

Agreed with that 100%. In this case however I know if I refer someone that the GM will handle it directly and with good intention. The UCM has a real chip on his shoulder and thinks a vindictive attitude is ok.

Interestingly Hennessy is the highest rated Porsche dealer on Dealerrater in the US. They are number 1.

I also can recommend champion Porsche. I've dealt with them in the past and found them to be competitive, transparent and have great service.

Hope it is not one of these. They were just collecting dust instead to flying thru dust. I took this pic two weeks ago when I picked up my '14 991 C2S.

As a car enthusiast, it was little sad...
