I just purchased this 2011 CS Manual Guards Red on Black CPO until 4/18 with only 12,500 miles from Porsche of Livermore for only $66K! It was listed at $81K but did not sell so they just took a bath to move it off the lot.The dealer cost was actually $68,500! (score 1 for the little guy!)
Red was not my first color choice but the value was too strong to pass up.
Thank you to all the members who shared a wealth of information that I gleaned and gained confidence from as I lurked the past couple months,particularly in regards to the necessity of a PPI even on a CPO,which btw it passed with flying colors.
Congrats on what sounds like a great car and deal. Enjoy!

That didn't work out so well,having a hard time figuring out how to post a picture.I'm so computer illiterate I'm lucky I can find my way back to this site.
Thank you guys for the welcome and kind words.

There are some restrictions to picture uploads using the site's uploader, so it can be tricky if you're not especially computer savvy.

I have found that using a hosting site like photobucket.com works quite well. It's a 2 step process, but you can upload your photos and then in the little tool bar you can just copy & paste the "[IMG]" code into the forum. Works perfectly.

Sounds like a great deal on the new car. I always read about people who negotiate amazing deals ($5-10k off) of P -cars with less than 20k miles, though I've never had that kind of success. Typically they come down just enough that when you add the taxes & "fees" back in, you're right back at the original asking price.

I found this site to be the easiest.
http://tinypic.com/

Just click on upload picture. It asks what it's for(Forums are included) click on that. As soon as it uploads the pic it gives you a link
Copy and paste that link on a thread response(it doesn't show the pic) but once you post your reply it shows up.
Nice looking car and welcome to the club
