Sanity check

rteichman:

Offer the dealer one of three options:

1) Pay $20k for the car minus the $2,300 for repairs ($17.7k)

if he says "NO" then offer

2) Pay $20K for the car, offer to pay "cost" for the parts, and have the dealer throw in labor.

If still "NO" offer

3) Pay $20K for the car, offer to pay "cost" for the parts, and pay "actual" labor time for the work

Sorry for your dissapointment. Hope it all works out.

Walk away very quickly from the car and consider the PPi fee the best money you ever spent!

Never get attached to a Boxster. There are so many to choose from! in every color and year!

well unless its a Silver and red 3.2 with only 10K miles, Bose, sold with a 6 month powertrain warranty and free interest for 6 months! Then love at first sight is ok.
