HOLD THE PRESS!!!
I had not yet signed the final paperwork because I was waiting on the service history. Turns out this car has MAJOR warranty claims:
2 rear main seal replacements, April and June of 2009!!!
Sept 30 2009 -- warranty claim for a loose engine!!
There's more.
Stay away from the white GT3 at Porsche of the Village.

I hope this helps someone save their butt on making a big, big mistake.
Back to the drawing board for me.

I would get the details first before I'd back out. RMS issues are common with any GT3. Maybe it was just an overly **** owner like most of us. Loose engine? I'd want the details of that before deciding. Might not be as big of a deal as it first sounds. Did this dealer repair it? If not, call the one that did.

I had a certified Porsche mechanic review all of this history, and he said to stay far, far away from the car. However, it's possible that someone would be willing to buy the car, but with this history in mind, I'm sure the price would be much less than the $88K I was going to buy it for.

What's your hurry taylorcoleman? Just be patient and you will find the right car, it took me a year to find mine. You'll need install a 996tt RMS if you want a GT3 that is completely free of oil leaks. The best way to remove window tint is with a portable steamer (the type used for clothing), no chemicals needed.
