I didn't get what I'd call a great deal but paid what I'd call a fair 35k including the 3 year extended warranty.

"Congratulations! Sounds like a great Car. But, why wouldn't the CPO Transfer? "

As I understand it (and I confirmed it by reviewing the CPO policies on Porsche's web site), they only honor the transfer of a CPO between private parties. If a private party sells/trades the car to a dealership, as in my case, it goes away. The dealership I bought it from wasn't a Porsche dealer either. I'll actually be flying into your neck of the woods to pick it up Friday morning (it is in Eden Prairie).

No Perfectlap, it is 5600. Almost too low but things checked out. I don't plan on driving it in the winter. That is what my Jeep is for. But, there is a good chance I'll be moving to Tennessee later this summer so that will solve most of that problem.

I agree with the poster who mentioned the red flag on the tires... at 5600 miles you should have AT LEAST 3/4 tread, if not more.

I guess it is actually more than 50% (I'm no tire expert so the figures didn't mean alot). They're at 7/32s front, 6/32 rear. I was told that new is about 9/32s. Does that sound closer to what you'd expect?
