The good news about car hunting and car buying is that the internet has changed the process forever, and in particular, used car buying. Never before has the buyer had such quick and easy access to so much information and so many choices as to what to buy and where to buy it.
The downside is that caveat emptor (“buyer beware”) could have been coined for the internet marketplace. There are good deals and there are bad deals and generally, there are more bad than good..
Essentially, you have three choices on where to buy a pre-owned Porsche:
1. New car dealer
2. Pre-owned dealer (like Weissach Autohaus)
3. Private seller (including private sellers on Ebay)
Only new car dealers and certain pre-owned dealers will offer warranted, pre-owned Porsches. At the new car dealer you're likely to pay a bit more money and you're unlikely to see anything older than three or four years, but you'll get a warranty. A pre-owned dealer could be the local autobody shop or it could be a place that specializes in European cars and has some experience in Porsche.
At Weissach Autohaus, we go one better - we only do Porsche. That's why our Porsches can be trusted and are backed by warranties. Before you buy any Porsche anywhere you need to have complete confidence that the car you are considering has been thoroughly inspected by trusted, respected and Porsche-trained technicians. You should have confidence that if something does go wrong your pre-owned Porsche is backed by a warranty. Having confidence in the Porsche you buy is what it's all about, and that's what we do at Weissach Autohaus: we bring peace of mind to the purchase of your pre-owned porsche.
Lastly, be aware that some cars being sold by used dealers are sold on a consignment basis. That means you are basically buying a car from a private seller through a sale that is facilitated by a dealer. It's not likely to have the same quality of inspection or any type of warranty. As with all private sales, whether its consignment, ebay or direct, once you pay, it's all you.
