Are parts going to get harder to come by

Walk into the dealership and go to the parts counter, however, and you'll get your head ripped off like every other stealership in the nation.

I think it depends on the dealership and whether or not they give a PCA discount. I routinely bought parts from Sonnen Porsche in Mill Vally because they would compete with Suncoast and Sunset on parts. When I bought my ROW suspension Suncoast wanted $1160+$50 to ship. Sonnen got it for me for $960 and with local tax I saved $80. Many Porsche owners shy away from local dealers because they think they will always gouge them but developing a good relationship with a dealer and using them as another resource for parts and maintenance is not always a bad thing, at the most it will cost you a phone call to check prices.
