My Review of Ed Carroll Motor:
I bought a slightly used (3000 mi) 1988 Porsche 944 from Ed Carroll in 1989. I have had it serviced by them ever since (20 years). About a year after the warranty ran out, it blew a gasket between the oil and water cooling systems, pushing oil into the cooling system. They dissembled the system and replaced the gasket, and because it is recommended by Porsche, also checked that the main bearings were not damaged by having water in the oil. The overall cost was close to $2000 (early 1990s dollars!). Without my asking, when I went to pick up the car they told me they had talked to the Porsche regional manager about the issue and that "Porsches don't do that". The entire repair was covered by PNA! Since then, they have kept the car in great shape without pushing me to do unnecessary service. In fact, I sometimes have to coax them to do some expensive service items rather than finding a less expensive workaround. I have a lot of confidence that I am getting a good deal from Ed Carroll, and would certainly buy another Porsche from them. Comparisons of prices online (Cars.com) suggests that for both new and used Porsches, Ed Carroll prices are often the best available, probably because of low overhead compared to Denver or Scottsdale. Unfortunately, they do not service their online web site very well, so it is worth a call or visit to see what they have in stock, especially used cars. Not a huge inventory, but...
