Great purchase and welcome back!

I considered this exact car from Pfaff Porsche prior to my deal with TRAKCAR. Great looking car, very reasonably priced, and CPO warranty,... I also made the mistake of a 997 Turbo before going back to a GT3. Never again!

Thanks. I made the mistake of buying the turbo the first time around. Never again.

I think I know the PO (first owner) of that car. He's a great driver and takes great care of his cars.

Okay, but I've never seen an F430 with snow tires before. I wonder how it will perform?

Saw your soon to be GT3RS at the dealer... what a stunning car!

If you kept the Fiat that would have been quite the trifecta

Yeah, would have loved to have kept it. It's an amazing car and so much fun to drive. I really took a liking to the F1 tranny despite my initial hatred for any "flappy paddle" type gearbox. Unfortunately, there is no room in the garage and it's not high enough for a lift. More importantly though, there are no funds in the bank account! I don't have a mortgage or any car payments and I plan to keep it that way.
