BUT having never bought a Porsche since I moved to LA I'd love recomendations for a Euro delivery friendly dealer if you've got em. Went to look at a targa 4s at bev hills and it was pretty clear I don't want to work with those guys.

Thanks... I'll start building relationships now I guess. I thought bev hills porsche was going to bill me for the pleasure of their time. I'm ok with somebody making money on me.... I just want it to be somebody who I feel like appreciates my dollars ending up in their wallet.

That's a terrible rendering (says the guy who can't photoshop worth ****). Everything about the rear bumper below the lights is all wrong.
Look at the latest spy pics and you'll see what the car really looks like. That's not it.

I saw a 992 convoy in the Marina twice over the past week, and this morning I saw one black camo'd in Santa Monica on Ocean Ave while walking the dog
I own not one but two 991.2s already? And yes the 992 *in person* looks great exterior wise from what I can see so far in my opinion, I am eating crow. Looks a bit wider with presence, maybe an illusion because they are black. There are still some bits that are taped up, so I am still waiting for the release for final judgment which should be relatively imminent considering how many 992s are popping up on the roads. I don't know about the interior and shifter for a PDK car as well yet. I actually want a 992.1 C4 to replace my 991.2 C4 and accompany my GT3 but just not to keen on giving Porsche my money which is a very separate topic. Most importantly besides looks is how will the car feel and drive, has to have that quintessential 911 feel especially through corners and not just be a 2 door Panamera
Completely agree after seeing them a handful of times over the past couple weeks in person. Wish I could say otherwise as I don't want to buy another 911, but they might have forced my hand with how good the car looks from what we can see so far

I can understand that the additional hips might make it look meaner, though.

gonna say getting suv's doesnt seem to be an issue. shopping for my 911 in socal, dealers made it seem like they were doing me a favor. hard too when there's a lot of money flying around here, dealers dont seem to have a difficult time moving their high ADM cars.

That is a total deal breaker for me. I can't spend 120k on a sports car because of those door handles. I don't care if 99.999999% of the population can't tell the difference between those door handles and the door handles on a model T ford.
I don't buy Porsches because of the handling, the quality, the acceleration, the racing history or anything else. It's those damn door handles. SMH

I went to Irvine Porsche to look at the T and had a bad experience, so I know what you mean.

I can't speak to anyone's experience but my own, not a fan of a single dealer here in LA. Bev Hills, South Bay, Walters Riverside, McKenna, Auto Gallery, Rusnak, DTLA. Just too much money here I guess to where customer service is optional. I'd recommend Porsche Fresno, CJs place, even without having made a purchase from them. Porsche San Diego wasn't too bad either so long as God forbid you try to get a GT car from them. Just my own personal experience having shopped around recently. Wasn't fun at all, actually painful
All that to say, Circle Porsche could be an option for folks to consider.
