one sweet ride...all the best

+1 -- OMG pretty, and I have to say the Cocoa interiors are exquisite... and with the Cream White -- drive and enjoy!

BTW -- I bought my Atlas Grey '10 C2S remote, sight unseen, from Holbert's outside of Philly, though we took the train up to do the deal and drive it home. I was a little worried about taking delivery in that way, with extra pressure to buy it to get home in, but it was a great delivery.

I bought a 2003 BMW 330xi 8 years ago, ordered (I wanted a manual transmission, all that was on the lots were auto's) and took delivery on a rainy night. Next day I saw the small dent in the driver's side back door, hardly noticeable, and it stayed that way until I sold it back in October to get the pCar... Eventually didn't bother me

Cheers,
Marc

I don't see any scratches.

Perhaps name the dealership so we can be aware...btw, love cream white with cocoa! Fantastic!

That's a beauty! I would've forgotten about those scratches in a heartbeat.
Enjoy her in great health!

I completely understand your pain. I buy almost all my cars over the phone so that 1) the dealer can't "wait me out" in person, and 2) I am just a phone call away from another dealer. In my experience, this model has saved by on average $2-3k which can then be put to other things...

The dealer should make this right, but don't expect much. I'd continue to politely pressure them out of principal...

Good luck!

She's a beauty! Love the cream/cocoa combo, and the choice of wheels. Awesome car, enjoy!

Thanks guys. I am politely reminding them (Jackson Porsche in Mississippi) that they told me in writing there were no scratches "at all" but as you all say, I have really no recourse. One of the scratches is down to metal, and located on the convertible top compartment lid. I am going to have it fixed, they'll remove the lid to sand and repaint. I'm prepared to do this, even if at my expense. I'm getting over it and appreciate everyone's advise.

It's a real beauty. Enjoy it!

Nokona - that's a beautiful car! You got me a little scared though, my '08 C2S (2800 miles) is due today or tomorrow) and I'm expecting an "as new" car (as adavertised).

That said, **** happens. Where are your scratches located (are they prominent)?

I consider Napleton Porsche my second home. I've seen & looked at you new ride many times. You have nothing to be scared about my friend. Your new ride is in great shape.

Pissed Puppy:

I hope yours comes in perfect. I have a deep, very irregular (like someone went in a circle two or three times) scratch down to metal on the convertible compartment lid, and a chip in the nose. They're both not insignificant, at least to me. I appreciate everyone's comments, about keeping things in perspective, but will probably bite the bullet and get them fixed.

Have you thought about contacting PCNA about the problem and seeing if they can intercede with the dealer on your behalf? It's not a warranty issue but I'm sure as the importer PCNA is concerned about how a dealer treats its customers especially when it misrepresents a car's condition in writing. The dealer's franchise renewal could be in jeopardy if it has a record of customer complaints like yours.

Nokona,

I would contact the dealership first and pursue that option first. Please be sure to express how you feel regarding this issue and request to have this repaired at their expense. If you are not able to get this resolved then you may want to pursue the option "speed" suggest.

He's already contacted the dealer numerous times without success as his earlier posts establish. That's why I suggested going to PCNA at this juncture.
