Default newbie tries again...

OK - Thanks to this forum, at the last go around, it saved me from winding up without the CPO... .This time "learning curve" buying from a Porsche dealer in Connecticut, unfortunately 160 miles away...I am flying up to get the car tomorrow, assuming everything checks, I will be driving it home tomorrow - can not post link - see the Porsche pre-owned search for Hoffman Porsche - 2003 C2 - 18K miles, seal grey - black...will take pictures as soon as I get it home..

Nice car, although I hope you bargained them down and got a good deal - for an extra 2-3K you could have had Tim's '04 C2 with all the great options that has on it. The three cars shown all look a little inflated on the price side... typical for a $tealer.

... tell them you want a significant mark-down in order to replace the pumpkin sidemarkers and the front plate holder.

The more expensive one is a C4S
