Default Good dealership experiences...

Might be interesting to post favorable dealership experiences.
I can start with Suncoast Porsche in Saratota Fl. I have purchased all of my vehicles from them to date and have never had an issue that was not remedied. The crew that I dealt with there has since moved to Bert Smith Porsche in St Petersburg Fl. I've not yet had the need to get to them, but I suspect the good service will continue. Hats off to Ron Servidio and crew!

Good experiences with Kings Porsche in Cincinnati, formerly Northland. Sold my 2007 C2s. Sold it a little more than a year ago to to pay for a car for my daughter. When I bought a 2012 Turbo S THIS last Summer went into the service department and felt like I was home. Good guys.

I would also give a good mention to a dealer in Knoxville. Can't imagine there are many. Driving my C2s down I-75 a few years ago the wiper came lose in a heavy rain storm. Managed to get it into their shop on a Saturday morning. They dropped everything and got me back on the road in less than a half hour. To me that said a lot about the quality of the dealer.

The Porsche dealers where I have had good experiences are (in no particular order): Niello in Sacramento; Porsche of Livermore (CA); Stead Porsche in Walnut Creek (CA); Rector Porsche in Burlingame (CA); Porsche dealer in Springfield (MO) (I do not recall the name of the dealership); Aristocrat Motors in Merriam (KS). Oh, I forgot to list the Porsche dealership in Witchita (KS).

Sincerely,

Macster.

Same thing with Circle Porsche in Long Beach, CA. Service people are super nice to deal with, and the sales people couln't be nicer. I bought a 993 from them back in 1997, but then went to Walter's Porsche in Riverside, CA for my 07 TT. Very disappointed with them when looking for Turbo S. Called Circle just to inquire if had any allocations for a 12 Turbo S---Michelle said had a 918 Edition available. According to her tracking report, the ship should hit San Diego today, so hope to have car in next 2 weeks

I'm not sure what a 918 edition Turbo S is...?

Mambodoc, the 918 Edition Turbo S is suppose to only go to people that buy the 918 for $850K. They give them the option of taking a Turbo S with 918 features---Google it. I was wanting to special order a S, so called Circle Motors to see what allotments they had---said a 918 Edition was available, so I took it.

Thanks for mentioning them. I was impressed during my short stop over.
