Run the VIN (WP1AC29PX9LA83146) and confirm the published specs on eBay match the specific vehicle. You can get excellent pricing comps from craigslist and eBay and edmunds.com.

Haggle to a price you want then, once you have the final price, tell them you want to make it a CPO to add two additional years on the factory warranty or up to 100k miles -- whichever comes first. Then haggle the CPO fees. You can search to see what the CPO fee may tack on, ~$2k and well worth it if you plan to keep the vehicle for awhile (you should ride out the depreciation but if you sell before 100k miles the CPO helps resale). My CPO covered a new drive shaft and paid for itself -- although with this 2009 you have current factory warranty.

If you plan to bring the vehicle to Canada make sure the US warranty will still apply in Canada and is transferable if you sell -- base warranty as well as CPO.

Carfax you can do on your own -- you just pay a small fee. More importantly is to have the dealer pull the vehicle service history, what TSB's were completed, etc.

Also, difficult to determine from the pics, but confirm this vehicle never had a hitch mounted or was used as a tower -- that may have placed undue stress on the overall vehicle (if the original owner did not know how to properly drive while towing) as well as expose it to saltwater -- backing in and out of boat ramps.

If you are near the vehicle or know someone who is ask the dealer if you can run a Durametric scan to see if/how long the engine was held at redline, etc. The dealer should have no problem with you running that test as it's passive. If they do, red flag.

Looks like a beautiful vehicle. Enjoy.

From what Porsche told me about warranty and CPO, they are totally non-transferable to any country outside the US. But you should check on that.

The dealer should provide you with a CarFax report so you don't have to pay for it. Ask them.

CPO is valid in Canada
