How to deal with out of state dealership who lie about the car condition?

Did you run a paint meter on that car? How do you chip up a door jam that can not be damaged by rocks like that without damaging somewhere else? Any thoughts?

 

Manhattan Motorcars has a reputation as a stealer, as do most west coast Pcar dealers. You should go to Porsche Fresno.

 

Honestly, it's your money. These paint problems to me, based on the pictures alone, seems quite small and minor. In fact, when you drive, these paint problem will also happen AGAIN no matter how careful you drive. Principle should help guide practicality, unless the principle is core to defining who you are. But sometimes just because of knowing who you are, expectation of reciprocity in the real world can become unrealistic.

I will just think you are lucky, if this is all the paint issues you have with 30K off.

Just drive the car and have fun.

 

Yeah I would say paint is minor. I bought my 996TT in Jersey I trailered it home because it only had 25 k miles on it and I live some ways from there. I got it home washed it took it for a ride and beeps red lights **** is going off all over the place. I took it to the porcshe dealer. All radiators were bad. 4 grand to replace those and change plugs oil etc. I did test drive it. Obviously not enough. Nothing I could do I bought it and took it home. I love my 996 but Learning how to drive it cost me a 6 k clutch. They drive far different from a gated Ferrari. I learned the hard way.

 

I would look at your written Purchase Order. I am guessing if it is not included in the agreement, it is not going to be enforceable.

You can leave complaints on social media, BBB, etc., but in the end, spending some $$$ to getting everything fixed is going to be your cheapest option. Before you do anything, take good pictures so you can document all the things that are wrong.

Good luck.

The paint doesn't look that bad to me, I think should be relatively easy and inexpensive to fix. If it were me, I would take it to a high end body shop, drop a few bucks and enjoy the car.

Good luck and let us know how it goes. You're definitely my favorite frugal exotic owner!!
