I believe I answered my "is PASM included in Premium Package" question. I just assumed the documented option list I found was accurate but appears that it wasn't, at least for the Diesel. PASM is NOT included in the Premium Package as I originally thought and I confirmed this by going through several listings with Premium Package and seeing that the PASM controls did not exist. PASM can be optioned on individually and also, it seems, is included when Air Suspension is ordered.

I gave up on the PASM hunt. I found a diesel at my local dealership that was optioned out extremely well otherwise and went for it. 104k miles but well maintained. If a cherry PASM crosses my path I can always trade mine in. Dealer said they have 20 people lined up waiting on a PASM diesel. Dunno about that. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I'm certainly not worried about the base suspension being sporty enough, more concerned about comfort. But, after all, it is my "truck". S

I am conceding on the PASM requirement as well. In all honesty, I don't think I really need it and if/when it ever came to replacing the shocks, non-PASM is the cheaper route.

However, to your questions on OKC Porsche... I had a HORRIBLE buying experience. Worst in all my buying experiences and would expect better from Kia. Lying salesman, not including all equipment as advertised, 3000 more miles on it than advertised, not washed, no 2nd key, absolutely 0 diesel in the tank, etc. I bought w/o seeing in person due to schedules and new baby but dang what a hassle to try to make everything right

That's a pretty unfortunate experience. I would be buying without seeing as well and all of those "misses" makes me extremely hesitant to proceed with them. Interesting that a Porsche branded dealer would be able to get away with those kind of antics...

FYI - I just picked up a 13 Diesel from Autosource Motors in Milwaukee and had a great experience.
Bought sight unseen and when drove the car in person, the front wheels seemed out of balance (felt on the steering wheel). Instead of just balancing the wheels, they decided to give me a free set of tires (21” turbo rims so not cheap).
They have several diesels in stock and most have extended warranties on them.
Good luck, TK

Thanks for the heads up, I'll take a look.
I actually video chatted with a dealer in Dallas yesterday and was going to be making an offer when I was informed shortly after that one of their other dealer's had sold the vehicle :'(

most, if not all, diesels selling at Porsche Plano had hail damage that were later corrected before being punched. Just FYI since they wouldn’t show up on carfax. Not sure about park place

The Porsche Plano comment is pretty unnerving and assuming that they might not disclose that fact is disappointing. How did you become aware of the hail damage? I am seeing some 15's there for decent prices so the assumption is the hail damage is pushing the price down without being disclosed...
