lol, Jesus christ....what a pleasure you are to deal with.
you know you are a pisser about the tires....spend $800 for Porsche to look at your oil, but you buy used tires for the car you actually plan on driving in the snow lol.
I was at Costco the other day and they had vegetable oil by the gallon. I briefly wondered how long the Chrysler would run on $15 worth of it. Apples and oranges. If you sneezed in the GT3 I would probably sell it. If you took a shit in the trunk of the Chrysler, I'd just hose it out.
my vote and depends on time
Weather on Saturday is rain now. Sunday looks like the only option.
This is on you. The people working there didn't get up to a school level where you do those math problems of when the trains meet each other.
What do you do with the oil analysis? Do you forward it to the Porsche dealer, make an appointment for a consultation? Sit down in a small office with a small round coffee table discussing your options sipping cappuccinos , sending the car back to Germany for care, etc?
Initially I was going to send it in for a baseline. It's $40 and it does help resale. But now, after this? I am going to pour half of it into the coffee machine at Fullerton Chrysler.
So, you paid $870 for what couldn't have been more than 90min of casual work and the experience was better. Huh.
Crazy, right? And the oil change is easier on the GT3 than the Chrysler (on a lift). But while it's under CPO coverage it will go to the dealer.
Well it included 3 espressos so there’s that.
If I didn't feel like my heart was going to explode I would have had a fourth.
with Carsons GT3, A ferrari...something with investment potential....I get it....But im assuming people who are driving the Macan...something that depreciates RAPIDLY also have to pay the same price for this service...and wow...$800 for brake fluid and oil is astounding lol.
Non-GT car service prices are less. Not sure how much less, but less. If I had a Macan, I'd use an Indy mechanic for sure. Or crawl underneath it with the air suspension set to off-road LOL.
Sure, I would agree....at best I would say you can buy a GT3, or a Gt350, etc....Use it lightly, maintain it properly...then at the end of the day, not lose much when you sell it....I think thats a fair and reasonable expectation.
For example, I know people are going all GA GA about the prices of Acura NSXs....but they were $80,000 in the mid 90s!!! So ~150k today......its not making people money if you bought one new.
MSRP on my car (2015) was $144,500. I could get that back in a private sale today in this crazy market. Probably 130 trade? Which is why the 992 is 50 over. And which is how I can swallow a $870 oil and brake fluid change.
TBH, I'm not a Porsche hater, quite the opposite actually. I want one and am looking to get one. The introduction of the new Vette has complicated this a little, HOWEVER, my desire for a Vette/ZO6 is tempered by the fact that I don't want a dealer experience where a bunch of vaping dopes are forgetting to rotate my tires, are over-torqueing every bolt to the point of failure, under/over-filling oil, etc. I'm sure there are some good GM dealerships out there with ethical technicians, but you're taking far less of a chance with Porsche, where you are getting what you pay for.
My buddy with a C8 has already had an interior trim piece scratched and a wheel marked up from the selling dealer. On a $91,000 car. The techs treat it like it's a Chevy Sonic.
