I did the same thing just to make sure I was reading things right and emailed them and got confirmation that they do indeed warranty fluids. I couldn't believe it honestly, but sure enough they do!.

Im not so sure about all that at least in my experience. It costs me like 20 odd dollars to ship the used oil change stuff back and then I get a refund for a 150. Maybe its gimmicky maybe not, YMMV,...

and this ladies and gents is why I sold my n/a 996 and bought a 996TT. Porsche screwed the pooch with the M96 motor design.

I had 19s when I bought my car. Dont get 19s, they ride pretty harsh. 18s is the sweet spot. It hard to go wrong with some BBS wheels.

Ill be honest, everything cosmetically about that car is atrocious. I think the previous was color blind or something.

you may get lucky, but unless you plan on a 25k+ engine rebuild soon, I wouldnt touch it. 140k is a lot of miles on the M96 motor.

I dont feel like typing out a novel here, so long story short is I would dodge this like the plague. You should be able to find a pretty good 996 for 25-30k that has little to no stories.

As much as I love the idea of the PCCM+ I just cant get on board for the amount that Porsche wants for it. They want way too much money for something that is not perfect.

Its a really bad idea to finance a toy car, especially a 996. Your 35k car can turn into a very expensive paper weight. No way could I recommend this plan.
