Default Pfaff Used Car Inventory

Total Porsche newbie wannabe here. Just joined this morning. Have a question for you folks. If one was interested in a used Porsche at Pfaff, would you feel confident that the car would be sold in as good a condition as possible or would you still want to take it elsewhere to have it fully checked out? Thanks for any and all opinions.

Pfaff is above board and trustworthy. Still you should do a PPI at a place you trust that isn't involved in the transaction.

Is the car CPO'd? What year? That could play into it a little. But, PPIs are key. And you could always ask a Rennlister for a Rennfax.

The car is not CPO'd. And it's a 2005 GT3 with 62,000km. BTW, what's a Rennfax? Thanks.

A Rennfax is when you ask another Rennlister to check out the car on your behalf, who might be local to the car.

Would the engine in a 2005 GT3 have the IMS bearing problem ... sorry ... potential IMS bearing problem?

Since it still has an IMS....yes. But rarely do we see this issue with the stout GT3 motors.
