As others have mentioned, I would not purchase this vehicle, or any vehicle, without a pre-purchase inspection! This is critical to understand what you're getting yourself into and what may lie ahead. Things to think about:

Over-revs
Clutch
Brake/rotors
Tires
Radiators
Vehicle maintenance history - not only prior service but is it up to date based on time and mileage? As the mileage/time increase so do the items that require attention/replacement as normal maintenance.
Paint - from the pics it looks clean. Has any panel been painted? Does it have a clear bra? If no on the bra…look at the hood, front bumper, mirrors, rear rockers, etc. At that mileage there should be wear - rock chips, etc. happens on every car, whether it has 10k or 60K.

Good luck!

Looked at the carfax on the dealer site, and all the maintenance seemed fairly routine given mileage and not necessarily from an accident. Did you mean the Autocheck report or somewhere else?

What were you asking for then? Not in a smartass way, but you already had bought the car and clearly weren't going to listen to what people said. So....?

I'm not trying to be a smartass either, but read his original post again slowly.

Did you notice this on the carfax, they put almost 12k miles on the car in 45 days or about 260 miles per day in the middle of winter in CT? Call Hoffman Porsche and ask them to email you all he service records they have on the car so you can see exactly what was done. They should do that as long as they redact the RO name and address, but if they forget then you can call the guy and get the background on the car from him.

It could be a mistake but the mileage seem to be accurate along the life of the vehicle. Wonder where someone would drive 12k miles in 45 days.

Seems like the car has been well serviced. Either the mileage was an input mistake or someone took a real long trip. I would call hoffman porsche and try to find service advisor for clarification
Regardless, beautiful car enjoy

im sure it was an error.. the person that wrote the miles could have been looking at the trip display vs the odometer.. or forgot to enter a 1 in front of the 5.. look at the car.. its clean and CPO'd.. this guy got a hell of a deal.. im sure he's throwing a few coats of wax on her right now..
