Here in Kansas City, the dealership sucks so bad that they ignored me when trying to buy parts for my 930. I couldn't get the parts manager to understand porsche part numbers over the phone, and when I went there in person, it was a fight just to get the parts manager to find the correct parts on micro-fiche. I had to point out my exact part numbers and basically read them to him.
Total waste of time. I ended up ordering all my parts over the phone from Stoddards. I have always had excellent luck with them and they do understand Porsche part numbers (and obsolete part numbers). I will never return to my local dealership. Several of the local Porsche Club agree with me and they also mail order parts and get service at independant shops. Several times, groups of club members have discussed trying to get the dealership away from Aristocrat because the customer service is so bad. Just a warning, if ever in Kansas City, beware of Aristocrat Motors. my $0.02 |
