Default C4S in Danbury, CT...

I'm interested in this car but could use someone to physically go and check it out.

http://danbury.porschedealer.com/pre...info.php?VHR=1

Anyone close to the Danbury, CT Porsche dealer that could go and check it out?

Thanks in advance,

Joel

Love that color combo. If it didn't have a hard top I'd be all over it.
I live down the road. Could check it out on Sat. What do you want to know?

Perfect Stef. I want to know what the overal condition is like - road paint chips, the general cleanliness of the car, especially the interior - what's the condition of the natural leather etc...

What's the condition on a scale of 0 - 10?

Next step would be the PPI etc...

Thanks in advance - perhaps you can take some pics etc...

I gave this car a walkaround when I stopped in to test-drive a 991.

The color combo is gorgeous. I'd say cosmetically that it's about a 9/10 or better; the interior looks perfect and the exterior paint is clean. Didn't see any chips or scratches, but I didn't scrutinize. It may have had clear bra, there was another 997 next to it and I forget which of them did.

Definitely worth a look.

Sweet! Thank you. I think the color combination is gorgeous too, contrary to what the local dealership likes here in Vancouver - silver over black, black over black... So it looks great. Cool.

Yes. Enough to get the information, finance rate etc... I have requested more detailed pics etc...

I am not concerned about the miliage - these are tough cars.

Who was your contact? I have a guy I usually deal with, but if you've started a conversation with someone we'll keep that going.

That's where I bought my car. We bought three Porsches there. I dealt with a guy named Malachy Tracy, but everyone there is terrific. Knowledgeable, professional and good with people. Also, great service.

What sort of pricing were you able to get them to work with. Was Malachy, the guy I am communicating with.

Stef - spoke with the dealer - mentioned there was a small scratch on the passengers door and on the front bumper. Doesn't sound major or a deal breaker but psee what you can find. Tx. Joel

Danbury is a good dealer imo. Malachy is a stand up fellow as well. G/L with the purchase. Great color combo.

OK, I'll take some pics. I've spoken to Malachy before.
