Since Porsche seems to have pulled back the bulk of inventory to Germany, it doesn't really seem to matter where I buy factory bits from.. are there any dealers/vendors that offer particularly good pricing/shipping charges/etc on factory parts?
Preferably outside of California so I can "defer" my sales tax, wink wink. |

I bought tons of stuff from Stoddard over the last 20 years, and still do from time to time. They used to be able to supply virtually any factory part, even many NLA/NOS ones. Not sure how true that is anymore - their web site is pretty lame compared to some others whereas in the old days they put out a hardcopy catalog that was awesome.
I've been happy with AA as well, but have not done a huge volume with them. Pelican is on my list to never buy from again. |

My first experience was bad with AA The rep told me that my parts were in stock and would ship out the same day. not only that they ship out three days later, they shiped it USPS with no tracking... when I called they say that they never told me such. I was lucky with pelican, part was shipped same day received on time. I am onm the east cost, I used AA for faster, but pelican ended up gatting to me first, 4 days earlier. |
