Bought our first (981 Boxster S) and second (991 C2s cab) Porsches from Scott Py at Porsche Rancho Mirage - and we live in the Seattle area. Now looking for another 991 - this time a C4s cab. Great experience purchasing remotely. Porsche Bellevue in the Seattle area has a great, great service department. Brett Payne from Sonnen has been great to work with as I look to complete my search this time around.

Here in the nations capital I have no less than five dealers in a 10 mile radius and another 4-5 in a half hours drive to Baltimore/Annapolis but most of my cars come from out of state. That said, most recent car came from Wallingford by way of my local, Porsche of Rockville. After 5 porsches, i finally bought one from my local. the sales mgr Michael was very helpful and transparent. very aggressive pricing. i'd do it again. Tysons historically have been difficult. my business partner has had good success with Porsche of Silver Spring.
Years ago i did a deal with Princeton porsche and Braman, but both of those Sales/General managers have moved on

Porsche of Destin is unmatched.
I was also impressed with the brief service I had with Braman Porsche of Palm Beach, Florida.
On the other end we should also call out the scum. Porsche of Arlington, Virginia has the biggest scumbag service department imaginable. They tried to scam me out of $12,000 dollars while I was on my way to another combat tour in Iraq. Luckily I sensed the scam and pulled my car immediately out of their garage before they "repaired" it.

Yup Porsche of Destin just offered a GT4 allocation at MSRP yesterday to locals - said they rather sell to us than some car flipper in California. I like that.

But I do drive by them regularly - for years they didn't even have a real sign. I mean Toyota Dealership next to it has a real sign. Sure now the dealership has a building and all, but makes me wonder on how they get Dealership award (unless the award is given out to increase more sales etc). I always got the uneasy feeling about them from a distance, and I won't do business with anyone who tries to scam our Service men and women.
I know one shouldn't judge a book by a cover, but scam for $12K is crazy

not surprised. Porsche of arlington used to be Heishmans. in the old days they were topnotch, chick stanton was a stand up salesman. totally third rate dealership now. years ago they tried to sell me a 911rsa that not only wasn't on their lot, but had been damaged in transit. looking back i should have bought it and held on, but who knew back in the 90's.

After looking around for a month or so, I found a great car (2014 Cayman S, CPO, less than 3,000 miles) at a very fair price at Joe Rizza Porsche of Orland Park, outside of Chicago, over 800 miles from home. Sent first email inquiry around 11 pm E and received a response within 20 minutes (after 11 pm!) and placed a deposit by 11 am the next day. Aaron Zielinski (General Manager) and Chris Wydajewski (Internet Sales Manager) were totally great to work with--fair, honest, prompt, and did exactly what they said without any games or trying to sell me anything else. I flew in the next week and drove home--the entire 800+ miles--without listening to the radio/music once, just enjoying the sound of the engine! Highly recommend.
