I checked out a car at Main Line a year ago and they treated me very well. I ended up not buying the car for other reasons, but the dealership seemed as negotiable as the NJ dealerships and friendlier (better for test drives).

I've used Main Line for both of my Porsches (997 previously and now 993). They're very professional.

I tried winner porsche. They didn't want to move off their price very much even though the market at the time dictated it but this was a year and half ago. Perhaps they didn't think I was serious.

Thanks to all that replied. I've contacted the dealerships mentioned. The deal to sell my 911 turbo fell through, so I think I'm going to keep it for now, but have decided to lease a 2010 Cayenne GTS. Gonna pull the trigger at the end of the month with whomever offers the best deal.

Hmm....really? I decided not to buy in Princeton one time as they were too awful to deal with......ended up buying a second time as they had the right car but my experience was pretty bad again. They wouldn't be high on my list for sales.

Service on the other hand is excellent and both cars go there. John in service is top notch.

I bought my car from Joel Casa at Main Line. Pleased with his help and that of dealership. I live in CT and bought long distance without a problem on purchase or on CPO warranty work done in CT.

Randal Boyer at mainline is very professional. I didn't by a car from him (or the dealer) but he was very nice to work with when I was shopping.

The Winner guys are great too. It's nice to have options.

Thumbs down Beware of Porsche of the Main Line -- EXTREMELY disappointed. Experiences in April 20

1. Approximately one month following my oil change at Porsche of the Main Line, my car began stalling. As it was unreliable to drive, I had it flat bedded to my home. Upon its arrival to our local Porsche dealership, it was determined that the stalling was caused by an unsecured placement of the oil cap, which caused oil to leak out. The car was fully inspected and everything else remained satisfactory. I am extremely dismayed by the service I have received, as I expect a $392.54 oil change to include properly closing my oil cap!!!!!!!

2. Additionally, I find it very interesting that the motor mount that staff at Porsche of the Main Line stressed that I needed to replace (about $1000 in costs) was also regarded as perfectly satisfactory at my local dealership.

3. I was advised that a specific part associated with my motor mount needed to be replaced -- but as my car is a 2006, that part was never in my car to begin with! This dealership is definitely trying to milk you for all they can get!!!

4. Unreliable -- came to pick up my car 4 hours after our scheduled time, and that was after they called me in the morning to confirm an INCORRECT time (which I corrected). I figured after we set things straight that morning, there is no way they could mess up the time again... I was wrong.

I just acquired some Champion Wheels thru Main Line - great parts guys who are enthusiasts.

Bought 2 vehicles thru Alex @ Porsche Of Delaware (Previously Winner) and not a bad word to be said, and he's a great guy and super knowledgeable. In recent years the company has put more focus on the Porsche brand and I believe it's paying off. They also support our local club extremely well - eg supporting our annual DE at NJMP.

Another 'thumbs up' for Alex Witham. Cant say this about too many salespeople, even at Porsche, but he is true enthusiast (has a 78 Euro SC too ). Give him a call - always good to have multiple dealerships involved...

Got my GT3 there but it was used. Had no problems and would do business with them again.
