J - thanks for the info on the dealer fees. Also - good tip on the wheels and tires.
I'm definitely not rushing straight back. I'd like to leisurely stroll through some of the horse country back roads outside of Louisville/Lexington on Friday afternoon and then maybe find a nice B&B or hotel in western PA on Friday night.
I've got a lot of Griot's stuff for taking care of the car. I read all of their stuff so I don't accidentally put any swirl marks in the paint.
Update: Dealer came back and said the $425 was non-negotiable and even said that he'd refund my deposit if the fee prevented me from moving forward with the transaction. Based on that comment and the fact that I saved just over 11% off of the price that was in the car window, I'm thinking I got a great deal.

UNBELIEVABLE!!!! That's about all I can say. I picked up the car yesterday at Blue Grass Porsche in Louisville and I will certainly give them two thumbs up.
Everything went extremely smoothly and quick. Jeremy the sales professional even surprised me with new rubber on all for corners!!!
So far, the trip has been fantastic. The car is an absolute pleasure to drive, the performance and handling is second to none.
It was a beautiful day out here on Friday, but I think I may be encountering some rain and snow on my way home through PA to NY.
We're off in a little bit to see "Fallingwater", the house designed by Frank Llyod Wright in south-western PA. After that, it's the PA pike and 78 back into New York.
Well, it's 7am, I need to get off the computer and rush out to see the car.
(***I am on the hotel computer and don't have my laptop, so I will post pictures when I get home***)
