Just bought an RS from Autobahn. Spectacular guys. Highly recommend. Contact John Hamilton for sales at its finest.

I've also had great experiences with Porsche North Houston, Porsche of Plano and Porsche of Omaha.

Sonnen was good to me in terms of buying (MSRP, transparency regarding place in queue and delivery timing) even without a referral or connection, and service (good communication throughout, work done well). Walnut Creek was good for service but I've heard otherwise re: buying from 2 people.

Circle Long Beach got weird with a CPO Cayenne I was trying to buy with them (one day they said it was perfect, next day they say a valet slightly scratched a bumper, and it would take 2-3 weeks to repair it)

Walter's, Riverside CA

I've bought or leased 7 Porsches from them in 8 years, including my '15 GT3. It was one of the very first in SoCal with LWB seats. It was a dealer stock car AND they sold it to me below MSRP.

Outstanding treatment by sales and service every time I go there. Both my present cars are from Walter's.

'15 GT3
'16 RS7

Bert Smith in St. Petersburg excellent sales group. Suncoast in Sarasota has the best service dept. of the six I have ever dealt with around the country. Great service advisor Michael Ghiris and three super Gold Techs; Ryan, Elliott and Eugene.

BTW, best collection of P-cars/cars I've seen to date. Great taste, all the right models and years represented perfectly. Well done..

Default Champion First Time Customer, A bedtime story for Martin

Four days after the 991 GT3 was introduced at the Geneva Show in March 2013 I decided to pull the Trigger and get on the list to order a car ( First time for me ). I called one of the top SA @ Champion with whom I had come know , and Offered to put a 10k deposit down over the phone ; He said no need 2k will be fine to secure a position , I was 8 on the list he tells me; I felt fine and figured they would get at least 10 allocations. Six weeks
later drive down to meet up and write the deal with my SA and by then their
list had grown to 54 with production yet to even start , then the wait, the stop sale, and so on ;19 months later over Thanksgiving 2014, 4 GT3's clear PDI get loaded onto a truck in Brunswick , the Principal of Champion gets word to the trucker if he gets his rig with those GT3's to his dealership by Friday
evening $500 bonus in cash for him . I got the call at 11:27 am Saturday
morning to come on down the car is ready . Paid MSRP . took the car back on the following Wednesday for SW and CI 9500 install and free clears up front and Champion POLO shirt and P hats treats.
Yep leadership made that happen for me. Thank You Mr. Champion

PS they were probably glad to get that car delivered to free up there phone lines
