Default Pfaff Oakville - Coming Soon

Just spotted an add in the Oakville newspaper announcing that Pfaff Oakville will be opening soon on Wycroft Road.

It will be nice to have a dealer in the west end for those occasions when you can't get OE parts easily from anywhere else.

Hopefully they put on a nice grand opening party.

I don't think it's a Porsche dealer though, is it?

Porsche Dealer as far as I could tell from the advert. It had a picture of a 997 in it and no other reference to other brands.

I could be wrong though....its been known to happen....

I did a quick Google on "pfaff oakville" and found a Pfaff Oakville job listing on the TADA website.

They are looking for "Professional Salesperson required with experience in German vehicles an asset (Porsche Focus)."

I even called the number on the website but just got a pre-recorded message about the planned opening the weekend of May 5th. Guess they missed that date...

Dum, dum, dum.....the mystery continues.....

It is a pre owned centre and service will be available there to. Tuning will have some product there also and they will be able to do install work for us. I'm sure you will be able to get OEM parts delivered there for pick up.

Very smart move from Pfaff to set-up a Porsche shop in Oakville...

Hey Pfaff...we need something west of the GTA. Think of the business you would steal from Downtown Porsche. Lots of London people with money but don't want the hassle of driving 2 hours for sales/service. Likely the same for Windsor area. Get moving

As a previous salesmangler once told me. " If you want to go elephant hunting, it's best to go where the elephants are." Oakville/Burlington is a target rich environment and i'm surprised that it's taken this long for the light to come on..

Will this Pfaff pre-owned centre be allowed to import and sell USA cars?

I was their first service customer on Tuesday. Got my picture taken with Bill and the TT. My understanding is that they will only sell used cars but they are specializing in Porsche. They will do all service work but no warranty work. They had some Benz's and some P Cars for sale. It will be nice to have someone who specializes in Porsche in the west end.
