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!

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.
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.
Joe Rizza is a huge dealership.

They have a stand alone Porsche dealership so they are not quite the "Ford" dealer that Bob used.
I have bought and sold a number of Porsches through Rizza and have had good experiences with them.
