Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

22 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

OOPS! Damn!!! Let's try that again! Here is "Bob's" next Porsche. Note the dealer! http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...=2&cardist=578

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Bob was the guy that had his engine catch on fire (multiple times) and various other ailments. He had a non-Porsche mechanic replace the first one and when the second engine blew up (or go up in flames) he blamed Porsche. BTW - he bought it used... from a FORD dealer! Here is the link to the initial post about the issues. The entire thread has 247 post. https://rennlist.com/forums/showpost...09&postcount=1

POST 8Original post

You must be taking about two blown engines Bob and the ford dealer!

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Yeah, there really is only one BOB!

POST 10Original post

I get it, but it just didn't seem that funny.... Is it just me?

POST 11Original post

Looks like Bob has put down the cash - car is sold!

POST 12Original post

I used to read Bob's posts when I first got my P Car. I had many sleepless nights worring over my engine grenading like Bobs. Did anyone ever research him to see if any of his story was really really true? He didn't have a web site like the "last olympic swimmer" guy. I admit I doubt'd the reality of Bob's posts.

POST 13Original post

It does seem to be a Porsche dealer, as well as Ford and Kia.

POST 14 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Yeah, I noticed thattoo, but I have not seen too many Porsches at Ford dealers. Porsche and KIA, now that's and interesting combination!

POST 15Original post

I think the Porsche may actually be for sale at the Porsche dealer. There is one pic with it in front of the Porsche showroom. Each of these dealers are probably in separate, stand-alone buildings, and maybe even separate lots. The dealerships may be next door to one another though. I think when PCNA had all their dealers remodel a few years ago, they may have eliminated the "joint-dealership" image.

POST 16Original post

Joe Rizza is a huge dealership. http://www.rizzacars.com/ They have a stand alone Porsche dealership so they are not quite the "Ford" dealer that Bob used.

POST 17Original post

I have bought and sold a number of Porsches through Rizza and have had good experiences with them. No affiliation, your experiences may vary, you may lose money, please read the prospectus before sending $$, etc.....

POST 18Original post

Poor Bob, what ever happened to him? Why weren't there any responses to him? I guess he closed the thread? Oh the good-times I missed!!

POST 19Original post

Something about seeing "Ford Porsche" in the seller's name does not inspire confidence, does it?

POST 20Original post

I have not dealt with their sales department. However, they have a good service department.

POST 21 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ray, do they charge you KIA prices or Porsche prices?? Inquiring minds want to know!
