Sorry I took so long to reply (haven't read rennlist in awhile) but I found my car at Sanfer Sportscars. They're ok, but I wouldn't rave about them. Quite a few nice cars of all types there and they will deal.
Good thing I bought the warranty...I would guess about $15,000 worth of repairs including engine replacement purchased for $2k a year ago. Just make sure to archive all maintainece records.
Be smart...Get a leakdown on any 996 car you're considering buying secondhand. I had The Collection do the PPI but didn't specifically request a leakdown which would have shown a failing engine before I bought it...in the end, I love having the new engine, but in reality the engine failure in the warranty period was the luck of the draw.
Some may not think its a good protection to buy, but unike Vegas the House does not always win when it comes to car warranties.
But then again, I win when I go to Vegas too!
