Really left a sour taste. The lady did not know much about IMS but had it serviced annually with new AOS, brakes, and tires

How much does an IMS replacement cost these days anyway? I remember they were an upwards of $5000 early on, but have come down a lot now.

Ouch. Plus, what, about 8 hours of labour @ $110/hour? Yikes.

Conversely, you were going to back out of one of the cars I assume... (you said you left deposits on 2 cars in the original post)

Don't forget with the 987.2 you have to factor in the cost of updating the shift cables which cost anywhere from $500USD for the Numeric Racing one or OEM which are few hundred more.

The dealer took my deposit knowing I was working on another deal privately.
I had leverage as the car was on the dealer lot for 3 weeks
