It still might make sense to buy the warranty, since the Porsche CPO program is pretty good--or at least it was, not sure if they've dumbed it down. But it might be another couple of thousand on top of what you're paying.

I would personally prefer the 19s to the 20s, but that's obviously a matter of preference.

Ah, thanks for the heads up. Frankly, depending on price, I'm not sure I'd want to pay for the warranty on a car that I'd realistically drive 3k miles per year. But thanks

As for the wheels, I don't care for the massive size of the 20's but I do prefer the style (same on my F80).

The only good thing about living (and having bought a new car) in Georgia: no front plate.

We are “required to” here in Ca but I’ve never ever had a front plate on any of my cars since I got here in 86. Never been stopped.

Half the cars a see on the road here don’t.

Well, that was fast. It already sold.

At least I don't have to agonize over it.

Yup. One day.

I was even willing to potentially do something crazy like drive down there this weekend with my checkbook. Oh well.

I have been stopped but was profiled Driving a WRX without a front plate in a affluent area so they thought I was a high school kid Basically every luxury car in the area has no front plates.

Been ok so far in BMWs and my current GTI(another kid car though but looks like a R) and 911.
