Default Dealer Reputation

I've been following the 997.2 market for some time now. I'm looking for a C2S and I've found one I'm interested in at EuroSpeed Imports in San Francisco. Autochek shows it as a leased vehicle with nearly 26K on the clock. I'm not especially concerned about the mileage but the car is one of the colors I'm looking for and the price on eBay is pretty good.

Does anyone on this board have any experience with this particular dealer. They don't appear to be a Porsche dealer but as long as they have a good rep, I don't see that as an obstacle.

TIA

No experience, but just googled the business name and got a lot of hits of cars being offered for sale over the years and no bad reviews/complaints turned up.

Google the name yourself and follow some of the links and see what you find, or don't find.

BTW, I live/work not too far from that car seller. If you want PM me the details of the car you are interested in and if you want I'll visit the dealer and look the car over and take pics. I won't test ride/or drive the car and I can't/won't make a recommendation that you buy the car. I might make a recommendation you avoid the car if I spot something really bad but regardless I'll tell you about what I saw or didn't see or supply pics of it.

Sincerely,

Macster.
