are you sure? I bought my car in 04 as a CPO from Jackie Cooper Imports in Tulsa, OK. I am selling my car now and the person buying it has found out that nearly every body panel has been resprayed. I called the dealer and they said that PORSCHE will allow the the car to be CPO'd with up to 2 panels to be painter per side....Either way, the dealership should not have been able to sell the car as a CPO. Any suggestions as to what I can do about it?

You could make a stink with PCNA, but I doubt they'll care much about an 8 or 9 year old car.

I wouldnt be so upset if it had just been a small bumper respray or something like that, but this is my WHOLE car. This could potentially be a deal breaker for resale.

if the car was resprayed how did you miss it when you bought it ? are you sure the potential buyer isnt just saying this trying to beat ya up on price. and just because i car has been re-painted doesnt make it a bad car. the $100k question is..why was it repainted. i worked at a porsche dealer and on more then 1 occasion had cars come in from the port that had gotten slightly damaged (scratch, ding, bumper scuff etc..) at the port and were painted at the port. check carfax and see if it shows the vehicle being in any accidents. i believe CPO is for mechanical and structural integrity...no frame damage, no body panels replaced etc...

Honestly, some of you guys seem ready to write an entire car off if someone ever breathed on it wrong. My front bumper was resprayed, and thus didn't come with the standard rock chips that you usually find on used cars. This was actually GOOD news to me. It'll probably suffer worse in my hands than from the guy that owned it prior to me.
Sometimes I think I'm the only 996 owner that realizes that it's just a freakin' car. I love it, but it's currently sitting in the garage with the exterior caked with bugs and grime and the interior covered with dog hair from a friend's mutt. Doesn't seem to affect the way it drives, and I have no doubt that it will shine up like new when I get around to doing that. Might be Labor Day. Might be longer.

Why are you crying now?! You should have had the car checked before you purchased it if it is so important to you.

Ok, let me see if I got this right:
If your wife has had boob augmentation, or a face lift, or lipo suction.....
get rid of her, she ain't worth much anymore.............
