Some eye candy. Out of town in Scottsdale this week. At Penske Porsche of Scottsdale.

Amazing. Waking around in showroom. Walk past 7-8 people and sales guys. Not one acknowledgement or "can I help you with anything." Crazy. Maybe people have to beg to buy something?? Sends the wrong message as a brand in my opinion.

First time seeing a 918 in person. That car has a presence. Nice and wide. Quite the car. No disappointments in person. Lives up to the pictures and even more so in person. Not crazy about that wrap job though.

5 used GT3RS's at the dealership. All at ridiculous $100K+ MSRP. I think I prefer the GT3's to the RS's. The RS's sit higher overall, and more of a fan of the widebody vs, turbo body.









Nice peeling flat back wrap. Mind you, this is factory wrap!!

Nice pictures STG.

Now back to work finding us some "Hot for sale picks".

Did Scottsdale have any while you were there?

The only thing hot in Scottsdale is the weather. This dealer is not known for any hot dealing or putting in any effort to sell a car.

Back to the hot picks!

Another nice CPO 991S! Call our friend John on this one! Ask him for a "hot for sale" deal on this one. Priced pretty well off the bat here in my opinion.

13K miles
CPO warranty
$40K off MSRP

Nice find! Any thoughts on preferences between multi-functional vs sports style steering wheel?

Walk, don't run from there. Unscrupulous and yes as you see way overpriced. Email me if anyone wants details but suffice it to say not a place you want to do business from the GM on down.

Totally what I've heard from other enthusiasts. Nice to visit and see so many cars though while in town. Definitely not a STG endorsement by any means.

Regarding your poor experience with the sales people; I thought only Chevrolet dealers had crappy sales people.
