Talked to Kia Hollywood FL on the 911 and they said they could drop 1k to 65.
Its a nice car, but I needed them to do more for me to help cover the tax which they didn't seem willing to do. That with shipping etc. would put the car at 70k and outside my budget
Looking on the bright side perhaps a sapphire blue one with the same interior and options and the sports steering wheel with paddles will come along closer to home

Tell them you'll pay $60k and to call you when they're ready to sell.

This has an MSRP of $122,585, that is a $57,585 savings, what are you waiting for? Get the PPI and buy it.

Techart aerokits matters to those who want an aerokit, personally I would never drive a 911 w/o one. So someone like me would pay a little bit more for an aerokit (aftermarket or OEM) than one w/o it.
I wasn't expecting them to drop into my price range until next year. Certainly not with the miles options etc. I want.
I have another car I have to sell etc hence just need to stay in the budget and if that means waiting till end of the year beginning of the next one not such an issue for me.
I just got word from the dealer that the CAB belonged to a local doctor. The doctor passed away about a year ago and the car has been in the warehouse ever since. I spoke with the PPI mechanic who will inspect the CAB on Monday. His main concern is the fact that it has not been driven and that there may be dried seals, etc. He said he has been working on Porsches for over 40 years and can do the PPI for $200, but if I wanted a compression test done that it would be another $300. Do you guys think I need a compression test?
Also, if everyone does check out, do you think I can negotiate the $73,900 down any further?
Finally, when I register the car in California, do I need to pay the 10% sales tax to the DMV before I can get the registration?
I never bought a car out of state so this will be my first experience. Any sage advice and tips are certainly welcome. Thank you.

Three questions:
1. Does anyone know of any good shops that will do a PPI in Little Rock, Arkansas?
2. The warranty is to expire this year. Does anyone know what warranty company I should be looking at for this vehicle and price point?
3. Any good closed container shipping companies to use from Arkansas to Los Angeles, CA?

Sitting a year or two is fine! Dried seals? It hasn't been in a barn for 20yrs.
Didn't you negotiate already to put a deposit down?? The car is priced to sell.
I just bought a 16 TT the MSRP was 174k and paid 153k which is about 11.8% off and had 11 miles on it. Thought it was a good deal, it is white vert and black interior.

That is a solid price! Won't find much cheaper than that. At least you got hold of someone; it's been listed for sale for at least 2 months, and usually cars at that price with those options and miles don't last long. I would loved to have purchased it had it checked out-of course the first step was actually someone calling me back!
The Hollywood Kia car has a bit of funkiness in the Carfax... Shows it sold to a second owner at ~200 miles which is a bit weird, and then there is an old Prestige Porsche web page showing the car for sale again at about ~3,000 miles, now for sale again at ~17,000 miles (and evidently has been for sale for quite some time).
Not quite sure what the deal was with the early transactions.
