Strange???

I don't think your experience is too strange. I am about to knock over 30k on my Box and the only non-routine maintenance item I have had to replace are the floormats.

Since most dealer exposure is condemnation (w/o benefit of hearing the other side) you should share any good expirences you have had. I'm waaay far from Ohio but I bought a car from Porsche North Olmstead (Cleveland) and was really pleased with how I was treated - even requesting help/information weeks after I was long gone.

I remember my P-dealer - Winner in Newark, Del - doing an oil change for something like $200 and thinking about the, now 130,000mi, Ford Escape I daily-drive that get's a change every 3k at Sears (they bal/rotate for free each time) for $25. Oh well... You either anty up - or learn to DIY.

After two terrible experiences with Paul Miller Porsche in NJ, we wound up calling Pioneer Porsche in San Diego and negotiating our purchase over the phone.

The service at Pioneer was exceptional and provided us with a great opportunity for a roadtrip. I plan to purchase our next Porsche (or Audi?) from them
