Smile Hey just bought my first Porsche today!

Hi guys
Big day for me. Bought my very first 911 today. Just wanted one for like 30 years or so. Big day. Bought it out of state Colorado car. Here's a link to the dealers page:

http://www.porscheofcoloradosprings....htm?type=Used&

Base cab, Agate with Agate/Pebble interior. Manual. Great options. I'm having the dealer switch out the base steering wheel with a Sport Design version. I'll be flying out later this month to pick it up. Road trip!

Just wanted to say hi to you guys. Very excited.

Alec

Welcome and congrats Alec! That is one beautiful car! LOVE the two tone interior. They did a terrific job on the ad too: Made me want to buy it!


Keep us posted when you take delivery...and give us your first impressions when you get her!


Again, congrats and good luck!

Now that's how you market a car. The dealer's website is awesome. Congrats on the purchase!

That is the best Porsche dealer site I have seen to date. You can actually SEE the inventory.

Enjoy your new 991!

Seriously! Right! I even told my dealer to bonus their photographer and web developer. Easily the BEST dealer site I've seen. Most are just corporate sites with stock photos or crap cell phone shots. These guys make ART out of their inventory! Sold me. Probably sold a lot of people. Dealers need to wake up and present these cars like this. It's not even funny how much better this is compared to the usual junk. It's a lot like my site. Big images, tell the story with pictures. It works.

Thanks guys! I'll get photos when I collect the car.

Alec

Awesome Dealer

Yeah those guys are GREAT!! James Polyefko was my salesman for my last two 911's. The service guys are top notch too. Joe and Julio makes sure that they take care of me. Ricky from parts always hooks me up. He either beats sun coast or matches the price. Usually in stock most of the time. Sorry to hijack the thread. Just wanted to chime in on a great dealership.

Will

P.S. Awesome car and great color.

Hmmm.. That's probably not a bad idea. Do most of you guys use a clear bra? I could have that done while they wait for the Sport Design wheel to come in from Germany. I'm also thinking a solid radar solution so I can keep my license

Any thoughts on that?

You guys rule by the way.

I had my first one done by the dealership guys. For the 2nd 911, I went to a shop that specializes in clear bras, radar, and pretty much anything auto.

Who is your salesman?

George um, something. Great guy no BS. Nice clean sale. Maybe I'll look around Colorado Springs for a shop that does this. Might be the way to go.
