The local dealer saw my ad on eBay, and got angry since he couldn't personally sell me a different car. He actually called Porsche along with the selling dealer and told them i was a wholesaler. The selling dealer then threatened to sue me if I sold the car within 6 months of buying it, telling me Porsche was going to withhold future allocations from them. It took about a month for them to actually acknowledge I wasn't in the car business and "allow" me to sell the car. That deal cost me $5000 since I felt I had to turn down the original high offers. All because of that stupid jealous local dealer.
This is complete BS.....I've heard that since Ferrari dealers cant sell cars over MSRP they sell cars to good clients who then drive the car for several months the dealer will then buy the car back at a slight premium and then sell the car for more than MSRP. The client then gets another car and the process continues.
