Well, PCNA has stood by their product with me.

As I have posted previously, my 40 Anniv. Pcar had a water leak from the A/C condenser. The parts were replaced but the carpet was ruined along the entire passenger side of the car. It was smelling musty and the carpet was going to take weeks to come in from Germany.

At first, Porsche offered me free servicing through 30k miles, which I accepted. But after several dealer repairs to fix the water problem, Porsche informed me today that they are getting me a new car. Yeah!!!!!!!!

I am choosing between an exact match to my current 40th Anniversay car, or thinking of getting a C4S.

Opinions please.

WOW. Good news! Are they really giving you a choice or do you have to take the same one?

That's comforting news. At today's deals, I would buy a 40th over a C4S. But if they would give you a C4S with a sticker price equivalent to the 40th sticker, you might gain a lot on resale value later. Good luck!

Default Customer Service

Porsche never ceases to amaze me. I had some problems last week with my 2003 Cab and they bent over backwards for me. $750 for my inconvenience and 2 flat bed tows so I didnt have to take or pick the car up (60 miles away) from home.

A class act company that knows how to treat its customers.

PCNA stood by the product in my case as well. Shipped a new engine over from Europe in 36 hrs. rather than dicker over blame for the problem.

I'd go for the 40th anniversary model. You win either way, but I think the commemoratives are sweet.

I'd stick with the 40th. I might be a bit biased.
