Appreciate everyone's thoughts. Not sure I would say it's the same as buying a laptop from Amazon though. I know Amazon is a legit business and I purchase from them all the time. An out of state individual I have never met is a totally different proposition.
Like I said, if you are unsure about buying a car from far away, a plane ride is money well spent for peace of mind. But I think if you make a deal too complicated most sellers will go to the next in line, and when selling Porsches there is usually a line. Just friendly advice if you're serious about buying a car you really want, it would be a shame to be ready to buy and lose the deal because you scared the seller.
