It's 'sales people' like that whom make my job a whole lot easier. Just like another 'reliable source' that X51 will be STANDARD on the MY07 997"S".
In my opinion it starts and stops at the top of any organization. The hiring process, and the managment. I've only been in the business for about 4+ years, and I've heard things that would make your head spin. Now, I just intervein when I hear an inexperienced Sales Person say something incorrect. There's no shame in saying "I don't actually know the answer to that question, but I'll gladly find out the correct answer for you."
As a Sales Professional, I don't always know all the answers to EVERY question. But I sure can access my data base of people, and information on the net, and through my corp. reps. In my experience thus far, Porsche People are more often, better informed then any other group of purchasing clients.
Some organizations 'turn and burn' their sales people. It's really a shame. Because they're not investing in quality Sales Professionals. And they think they can slide by with sub-par sales people. But sub-par sales people yeild sub-par results. And it'll eventually show through the whole spectrum of the organization. But in the mean time, they have sales people on their show room floor, spouting off incorrect information.
It's the exact reason I work for Bernie Moreno. And why 10 of us and our families moved here from Boston to work for him. Because we work for the Best. And he wouldn't allow sub-par Sales Professionals, Service Professionals, or Master Tech's to work for him or represent his organization.

The big thing with Porsche as you all very well know, they do a darned good job of keeping secrets from the public. Better then pretty much any other car company.

Perfect spot for a Porsche dealer-- and although I haven't personally spoken with (likemystoppie?) Chris, I can vouch personally for owner Bernie's approach, the gentleman is a pleasure to do business with; going above and beyond re: price and responsiveness to any and all questions. With dariof as a perfect example these guys treat their customers the way any of us would if we owned the place ourselves.

Yeah, I remember that. Browns fans were definitely loyal to Kosar. The same way it appears the Cavs fans are to Lebron. Hey, congrats on the first round win. My Lakers lost tonight as everyone pretty much expected, especially after they almost won game 6 here -- if only they could have gotten that rebound. Oh well. As we Browns fans know too well, there's always next year.

Hopefully my new car will be there the end of the month. Checkpoint 8 was scheduled for May 11.........
