First, one thing that does make Porsche unique is that they will CPO a 12 year old car. I think that’s a testament on its own. Second, I will say that some Porsche dealers aren’t as rigorous or knowledgeable in their cars as other dealers. Not knowing anything about Porsche CS, but having been in the area several times, I suspect it’s more of a Macan/Cayenne dealership and less of a Cayman/911 dealership. When they CPOd the car, they probably went through the checklist but didn’t know what unacceptable wear was prior to CPOing it. Wear items such as tires have to be replaced if they don’t meet certain specifications. Their willingness to recoup some of the costs admits they didn’t do their job.

When I wanted to swap a steering wheel, three dealers told me it wasn’t possible. One said “we do it all the time” and was able to get it done despite needing to travel 200 miles.
