Nr.1 just went out of the equation, noticed a scratch on the side door/side that was fixed with the wrong color. Don't want to repaint a side again.

I think Nr.2 might have a Turbo oil leak problem, I'll send it for a PPI this week. If it sucks also. I'll get Nr.3

Thank you all for your input, it has been very valuable and I appreciate it very much!

Gah!
Can't believe it.

Car Nr.2 did have some issues, so it's out of the equation.
Car Nr.3 I believe is too expensive with that equipment. Especiallt since it's not original stuff. The guys won't budge an inch on the price!

Dooo, I'm so tired of chasing ads. for a 993TT. I WANT THE CAR! Grrr.....

Let me guess regarding the 2:nd car, they didn´t want to leave the car for
a PPI at the Porsche dealership, or was the K3 workshop ok?
The car at Lambo/Bentley is a commission car, but it´s still available,
I talked with the salesrep. and someone put a bid down at 620.000 SEK
=approx. $82.700, the asking price is 699.000 SEK = way to much!
But the owner is getting his Lamborghini next week so he might go down a
bit just to get it sold, who knows? The downside is that the car is in
Helsingborg! I know it´s hard to wait , but the right car will turn up
eventually!

swampthing,

I don't mean to be rude, but I'm a bit curious.

What is your affiliation with the cars?

I sent you a PM, didn't get an answer. You got three posts totally, all on this thread. I hope you won't get mad at me for asking. But it seems like you're involved with some dealership.

There are only a handfull people and a few of the personel at Porsche who know that the owner of Car nr.2 didn't want to get the PPI at Porsche and prefered K3.

I don't mean to offend you in any way, but I think you can understand why I'm a little bit wondering...

No problem, I´m not offended in any way, it´s quite simple actually, I know
Per at the Porsche Workshop and he asked me if I wanted to buy a 993 RS
and sell my black TT, since he knew a guy looking for one, that being you!
I don´t want to sell, but I asked who it was and Per told me!

Regarding the PPI, well to make a long story short I had a bad experience
with the owner of car nr:2 and when I read that you were going to do a PPI
on the car I thought to myself that there´s no way that they are going to
allow a PPI at the dealership, and left to chose from are K3 and Motormännen,
so that was basically a guess, I hate to be right! Sorry!

I´ll have to check up on the PM thing since I can´t find any in my inbox?

And I´ve been lurking around here for a little while and this time was the
only time that I felt I had something to contribute with, let me know and
I´ll butt out!

Svamp,

Sorry, I'm just a bit frustrated at the moment.
Sent you a PM!

Cheers
