Default 7.1 GT3 in Houston, TX

Anyone know this car or the dealer? My favorite color!!

DN Motorcars, Westheimer Rd, Houston

They advertise themselves as heavy duty truck specialists. Not the best endorsement to be selling this car.

perhaps the owner of the business? Looks like GMG exhaust. Does look like your 996. I looked at a questionable car. The deal I made was it had to pass my PPI. If it did not the dealer would pay for the inspection. The complete PPI cost $600. It failed and I was not out the money.

Joe, I actually looked into that one but after researching the business and the car I just got a bad feeling about it. The business name changed several times, it looks like a gravel lot specialist. Maybe I overreact a bit, but unless I am 100% feeling good, I move on. To much to gamble when spending this type of coin.

I would agree, especially as heavy duty truck specialists.

So, point me to any that you might seem worthy that you passed on. I'm sure you did your due diligence.

Most dealers in Houston also deal in heavy duty trucks and diesels because of the high margins they can get. This dealer does a lot of high-line vehicles. I have not personally purchased anything from him, but his other businesses shouldn't be a deterrent on the vehicle. PPI rules here.

FWIW, I know there is a good deal on a 7.1 GT3 at another dealer named Global Motors in Houston that is a pretty good deal. Red,red stitching, no Nav, but priced very aggressively at ~$73k. If you're interested, call the dealer and ask for Amir. If you do call, let him know you're a Rennlister...

I looked on their website. It's not posted there. I'll call.

They never update their website because they have so much inventory, but I assure you it's there. Talk to Amir.
