Priliminary
Waiting to see what happens over the next few days.
Long story short, I bought a Porsche from Sports Trend Auto on Tuesday the 24th of Jan. We agreed upon several things to be repaired after the sale. After setting an apointment at the Porsche repair facility across the street, which Thomas claims to have used many times in the past, I dropped it off 2 days after the sale was final. The dealership and repair facility is 26 miles from home, making it an inconvenience.
2 days later I picked the car up and nothing had been repaired or fixed. I asked the owner of the shop and he said he knew nothing of the repairs that I was speaking of. Since is was Saturday and Sports Trend was closed, I had no choice but to take the car home and wait until Sunday to call Thomas. Being very charming, Thomas said the shop screwed up and the repairs should have been completed. The repairs that were supposed to be completed was the climate controls were inoperative. Upon picking it up, the AC was on and could not be turned down or off. The center console was supposed to be replaced due to miss-matched ash tray and surrounding plastic. Nothing had been changed. A missing cig. Lighter should have been in the car, no lighter. Only the rear speakers worked at the time of the sale and it was agreed upon that the front 4 speakers that were not working would be fixed. Nothing had changed.
After contacting Thomas on sunday he said he was sorry (always charming), and he would ship me the cig. Lighter, the center console and the owners manual which was supposed to be left in the car also.
As of today, the 31st, he still has not shipped anything to me and I have resorted to taking it to a shop that I have dealt with in the past and feel they are far more honest than Sport Trend and Thomas. Of course the tab looks like it will be on me and I expect it to be fairly high.
I'll update this in the next few days as events unfold.
