Do you have any reference for the flood damage or other crooked actions? News articles, etc?

Crains published an article on this a while back. I don't have it any more. It's a locally known (infamous?) dealer that has also been cited by the Better Business Bureau as less than straight with its dealings. I checked on a 993 Turbo that was "one owner" and "concours condition". It was neither despite the sales guy insisting both were true.
There are plenty of legitimate dealers who will negotiate if you're nice to them. You don't NEED to deal with people like Luxury Motors.

A good friend just bought an '06 CTTS from Luxury Motors, and he was 100% satisfied with the experience. I checked out the vehicle, and it looks a-ok given its mileage. A few notes: missing floormats, broken ashtray door, no self-dimming mirrors (odd on a $130k vehicle).
Just a data point.

It's a Florida car. I have the CARFAX in my hands, and a Porsche 100pt inspection lined up. However, I still need someone to view the exterior of the car for me. Neither CARFAX or the Porsche inspection will cover the minor scratches, etc.
I know the history, and will know the mechanical condition, but just need to know the cosmetic looks.
PLEASE, if someone could take a few minutes to just swing by on my behalf it would be most helpful.
Oh, by the way...I have unlimited CARFAX for the next 30 days if anyone here would like me to run a car or two for them.

I realize you are just trying to help out other Rennlisters and I believe your offer was made in that light. However, doing this is akin to using pirated software on your 'puter. Just thought you might want to be aware oft he "other side" of the issue.

My son bought his Boxster S from LM...it turned out to be a great car BUT we would never go back there..sleaze *****. We had a couple of WE OWEs on the car and never went back to have them done due to their inability to have the car ready, prepped properly or any knowledge at all about P cars when we picked it up.
Exchange gets some nice cars but they are pricey and have a "superiority" complex.
Exch. is almost walking distance from my house and I will NEVER walk in ther again. I bought from Loeber. Ask for Andrew Smith--nice guy and long time Porsche rep.

You think that you could swing by and give details about the cosmetic appearance??? Maybe a couple photos? It would be MOST appreciated and great news for me!

I will be around there next week on Tues. Perhaps I could find a few minutes to look if someone can't get to it sooner.
I would still keep looking if I were you. Too many bad stories about these guys. There are plaenty of 997s out there. I am quite sure the good experiences with them outweigh the bad. There is nothing more expensie than a bad high perf sports car (excep maybe a hihg per boat or race horse)
If you are not in a hurry tell Andrew at Loeber what you are looking for. Cars come in there all the time.

Okay, guys. I put the deposit on the car today. Although I didn't buy through Loeber, the car will be getting it's PPI there. So maybe I'll give Andrew a call anyway. I want to speak with someone there and get a very thorough inspection.
