Naw... just drive a few miles west to Canfield, to Armando's.

In a CG_ shouldn't take but a minute and a half.

G'luck.

the dealer will fix it and only charge $1K for a new "T" (T stands for thousand!)

i forget whether you bought this one in columbus or cleveland?
Hi Jeff, I bought the CGT in Columbus. Tried Cleveland but Columbus really came through. Rennlist really has a lot of 'stand up comedians' don't they? Kinda reminds me of a quote from W.C. Fields: "If at first you don't succeed, try again. Then quit. There's no use being a damn fool about it."

More like too many bored 928 owners on a weekend night.

Bought my 2003 GT2 there and got screwed on the deal (lease wise) by the now ex-general manager. Really don't have a desire to revisit the place.

I had a 928S,can't remember what year (83?), but it was a really great car. Got a lot of looks, especially from a beautiful older blonde who smiled and winked at me. My mouth was open wider than hers. Can't believe I didn't do a massive hit on her!

Good to know! Next time the 911 crowd starts ripping on what an un-Porsche the 928 is, I'll fire you a PM to "back us up".

It is hard to find an ex-928 owner who does not have positive things to say, they are great cars - not quite a CGT. However, I'm willing to bet you cannot fit a set of race tires, jack, jack stands, and EZ-Up, tools, box of parts and spouse in a CGT on the way to a track event! Ah, who am I kidding, all of that will fit in whatever tow vehicle you are using for the CGT.

Bernie, are you serious? If you are, I'd be more than happy to drive it up to your place! Also, are you aware of a recall (or improvement) on the headlights (something to help prevent them from fogging) and the door closers (something to make them easier(?) to close - not even sure on that). I have the letter that Porsche sent me and would bring it when I came up. Do you also have that so-called 'special lift' to work on the CGT when necessary?

Thank you for the offer! That was very generous of you! Sounds like your one of the few dealers willing to reach out and touch a new customer with excellent service and going beyond the call of duty which is fine by me! Michael

Where is Poland Ohio? I've been here my whole life and have never heard of it. Did you buy the car from MAG or Byers? I would love to see it some time if you have it out to any of the club events.

Poland, Ohio is a suburb of Youngstown, Ohio. We're adjoined to Boardman which is where Bernie Kosar (ex Cleveland Browns quarterback) came from.

I bought my Carrera GT from Byers last April. I didn't know MAG was able to sell Porsches. But, I did buy my 2004 575 Maranello from MAG in June of 2005. Michael

I have an acura tl. I will be more than happy to sell you my "T" for a reasonable price. It has been washed many times and is honda reliable.

Or, I could trade you my TL for one of your 6 cars above....

Just an offer...
