Newbie with my first P-car
Hey guys!
Had Been on the fence for one of these bad boys and finally pulled the trigger Coming from a very fast AMG breed, I thought this car has what it takes to replace my previous ride. Any helpful inputs would be greatly appreciated. Not looking to modify just yet but when and IF i do will make sure i do it right
Its a 2007 Blue with 50k on the clock which i thought was a bit high for this car but fits my budget and looked to be very well cared for. I dont plan on DD this car at all but I do need to find me a Good warranty so any suggestions would be great.
Will have some Pics as soon as weather clears..

Welcome, I also came from a long line of AMG and M cars. I remember my first few weeks driving the Porsche is that I need to become a better driver. Took a few Proshe drive classes, they were very helpful and fun. To me the Porsche demands a better/skill driver input to get the most out of them.
Enjoy in good health

Congrats, and welcome to the club. A 997 Turbo is a great way to start your Porsche relationship!
I would look for Easycare as well.

Dealers in general sell them. I haven't bought one for a Porsche but my father did once and they were stellar. I had them on another car for a time and was pleased with the experience.
Many on this board will tell you the cars are bulletproof and there is no need for a warranty but I am on my third Turbo and I can attest that all three of them have spent a fair amount of time in the shop. I had a 996 Turbo that needed the transmission replaced ($11k), a 997 Turbo that went in for an electric glitch five times before it was solved, and a 997 Turbo that I just picked up that is already in for the accumulator.

Fair point. I still love them and once I have gotten the issues worked out of them they are stellar to drive. I buy used so I usually find out why someone else traded it in. ;-)
