Umm, dude.

 

Wait, a used car salesman accused of unethical and shady behavior? Imagine that

Ah, so it's a different Willhoit from this gentleman in the Petrolicious video. Good, because John seemed very likable and my con man radar did not get activated

 

Wrong Willhoit. OP, should probably delete this thread. This isn't Larry's homework.

 

Withdrawn

 

Who's Larry? The article is about Michael, and as pointed out by another member, not John.

 

He always had a great collection but his prices were ridiculous IMHO. I wonder what all of those low mileage wide body's ended up going for.

 

Ozark Bank... can't make it up...

 

That is a shame. I purchased my 928GTS from Michael the most honest used car salesman I have ever dealt with. He was a true gentleman. The price was reasonable and the car was in excellent condition. He shipped me the car with a 30 day return policy set up temporary plates and when I had issues with one coolant line paid to have all of them replaced. A few weeks later he sent me a check for $250 to take my wife to dinner for dealing with the inconvenience.

He had some of the best 928's for sale for many years although I never understood his fascination with his home. He has had it for sale for a long time and it is so specific to his taste finding a buyer will always be a problem and clearly has spent a fortune personalizing it. I hope things work out for him I am sure he has his side.

 

Guys, seriously. I thought my earlier attempt to make fun of the "mistaken identity" would be enough. I guess not...

Here's John Willhoit, a Porsche legend:



He has nothing to do with that mid-Western scammer in the article other than share a last name.

 

Willhoit is one of the best shops in the country

 

Ilko,

John and G. Manna are good friends although I am surprised to hear this about Michael. You might know more than I but I never considered Michael a scammer although some of his pricing was outlandish he always seemed to have grade A quality product. It will be interesting to see what comes of this and I a surprised there is no mention of it on the 928 forums.

 

Hey Tony! Yes, I saw Jerry and John at the Nurburgring last spring of all places. Small world as they say

Never knew there was another Willhoit who deals in Porsche. I guess the joke's on me!! Just did a little google search on him, enlightening to say the least...
