Bob is one of our Brand Ambassadors here at Walter's Porsche and a good one at that! That is why he stays so busy here at work but when he slips out the door for some down time he enjoys playing Ocean Sports, golfing, shooting, music and his grand kids. In fact, Bob has a home recording studio and says he spent the first 25 years of his life playing music and fooling with cars. Given a choice of vacation spots to watch a Arizona Sun Devils game, Bob would choose to return to Hawaii where he lived for twelve years but says any tropical getaway will suffice. Listed as his favorite Porsche's are the 1973 Carrera RS Lightweight and the race car 908.03. Be sure to say hello to Bob when you stop in to Walter's Porsche.

What stands out first about Porsche Riverside is its impressive building and collection of about every Porsche you could think of/dream of buying. The staff there is very professional and polite. There is no pressure from the salesmen and they are very helpful in answering all your questions as well as educating you about the brand. My salesman, Bob McDonald, was very helpful and knowledgeable and helped guide me to design my dream car. He was with me every step of the way to make sure everything went right, and even met me at the Porsche Experience Center in Los Angeles for my new car delivery. Even after delivery, the GM Mark Marchant from the dealership was there for me when I had a problem, and quickly remedied it. I have no reservations at all in recommending Porsche Riverside, I thoroughly enjoyed my experience there and recommend it highly. More

Excellent Customer Service Visited Porsche Riverside twice, Once to test drive the car and a second to actually purchase the car. My first visit I was assisted by Bob McDonald. Visited Porsche Riverside twice, Once to test drive the car and a second to actually purchase the car. My first visit I was assisted by Bob McDonald. A very friendly guy with a lot of knowledge I would definitely recommend him if you have questions about Porsche's in general. Matt Kraft and Adam Avalos were the two associates I dealt with with the actual purchase. It was a long process mainly because it was a busy Saturday. I used to work retail so I know what it is like to have to wait and stagger customers. Anyways, I purchased a CPO Cayman and noticed there was a large scratch that damaged the paint on the passenger door. I looked at previous photos before I purchased it to confirm it was there and was not caused by my doing. I notified Matt and Bob of the incident and my concerns were forwarded to Ed Finley. At that point I had a lot of anxiety as this was not an inexpensive purchase and I was beginning to wonder if that Porsche Experience was just a fantasy. Ed reached out to me and assured me that he would rectify the problem and the botched repair was not representative of the Porsche Experience. I am happy to report that customer satisfaction and customer relationship is a priority here at Porsche Riverside. I look forward to dealing with the Porsche Riverside team more in the future. More
