Just ordered some parts

[jimmy1117]

Hi,

Just ordered some parts from Dayton in LA. Their store carries all Porsche Tequipment parts. This guy (Dayton) is very helpful and gives me a good price (I think) :) at least I did not know where I can get a better price......

All the following items including Taxes and Shipping to my Fremont, CA 94536 address ---- $870

1. Aluminum Shift knob (Alum./black)

2. Aluminum E-Brake Handle

3. Color Wheel Caps (4)

4. Silver Hood Badge

All genuine Porsche Tequipment parts from Stuttgart

I did not get the individual price, but I know the silver hood crest is $79. Looks like item #1 and #2 are less than $300 each...... (including tax and shipping)

I expect to get those on Monday or Tuesday. :D Will let you guys know if this is a good store to buy something.

Oh, please also let me know from your experience if these are good deals..... :rolleyes:

I think that you paid too much. Next time check out Sunset Porsche in OR. They sell at cost plus 10%, no tax, and no shipping.

Well, I DID check the price on Suncoast. I don't think their price is better than I got:

6-Speed Shift Knob --- Price: $329.00

E-Brake Handle w/Porsche Script ---- Price: $350.00

Painted Crest Center Caps --- Price: $159.95

Could not find the Silver Hood Crest in there, called Carlsen Porsche and got the quote for $102.35

Even not buying the Silver Hood crest, all 3 items above add up to $839

But I got 4 items including taxes and shipping all together for $870....... :unsure:

Jimmy, I think you have Suncoast Porsche in Florida confused with Sunset Imports in Oregon. Sunset Imports in Oregon sells Porsche factory parts at cost plus a small handling charge. You can find them here

Oh boy! I did get them confused...... :(

Does anyone have a rough idea how much those parts cost from Dealer if you ever purchased from Dealer or from Suncoast Import?

Man, I got to pray that I did not pay too much..... :angry:
