You'll want to check if the TSBs we're addressed because you may be bringing the car back for poor cranking performance (just one of the minor, but time consuming issues with this model year). Good luck.
Porsche Club of America (PCA) isn't going to put anything in writing...and neither will Porsche Cars North America (PCNA).

This is really interesting stuff....however, I am not sure out to read this... can someone explain what all of the columns mean in the data and how i read the numbers. I assume if I have PDK, the transmission limits over revs, correct?

Well if it makes you feel any better that price was too good to be true for a clean CPO car with those miles. I bet it had some paintwork that you didn't notice.

Lots of good advice here. I would be as concerned with the low miles over 6 years. But with a cpo warranty I think you are good to go.

Good luck
