I also got a response but its seemed like its a private auction for Porsche dealer networks only. Probably best to get with the sales manager at a Porsche dealer.

i wouldn’t hesitate at the right price. We got one of the PECATL cars at our local dealer. The dealer spent $20k in new parts (axles, hubs, etc) and CPO’ed the car. A guy I know bought it and the car was outstanding. It was fast and he had no problems with it. He traded it for another RS that was originally purchased by local guy who babied it and only put under 1000 miles on it. That new car was measurably slower than the PECATL car and he hated the performance difference. I know the former COO at PECATL and the cars are driven hard but well maintained, probably better than some privately owned cars.

sure, why not?
warranty, serviced as well as any cars out there, driven as intended...
though I was told at Barber, these cars go back through the dealer network

You would most likely only be able to check through local dealer inventory and do a carfax search to see how the car was titled. PCNA doesn't sell the cars through the dealer, the dealer will acquire them and then sell them with no PCNA action. Wouldn't you just look for an RS if that is what you are interested in? An executive model isn't going to provide you any benefits that I can think of.

Why do you think there would be a performance difference between a private party owned car vs. a PEC car? Just curious! More redlining?

true for the Child case study and probably also applicable to the cars. A lot of garage queens out there that were never driven or challenged and fail miserably when someone tries to drive them after sitting in the garage for 3--4 -- 5 years!

Friend of mine bought one unknowingly.. He's had it for 3 years and has put @15K miles on it with zero issues.. (he found out the history @2-3 months after he bought it.
