The dealer buying your car at market price is expected, nothing special. Nobody pays list price for a used car so the "$6K off" that you keep repeating is irrelevant. What's relevant is their offer price which is $68K which, as stated above is within the KBB range for that car, so, again, nothing special. In fact, you're helping the dealer by buying it because it costs them money each day it sits on the lot.

This isn't about forgetting the past because trying to get a good deal is not about the past, it's about the present. Judging by your tone, it sounds more like you can't be bothered dealing with this and just want to get it over with. If that's the case, then at least make a counteroffer and at least try and negotiate another few thousand dollars off. At least you have that small leverage of guilt from the dealer since they did lose your car that you had loved so much!
I hear you. I spoke to ex-GM of the same dealership who happened to be my friend and he reassured pricing I am getting is indeed a good deal. He mentioned all their CPOs get new tires, brake and rotors and their CPO is typically more aggressively priced than equally speced CPO from others. Aside from that, I am a believer that being gentle on all business deals get me long way. But hey, all your supports in here in this post let me leverage other good deals through this situation so I thank you all for your comments.

Panamera is a wonderful car that you will love.
This is true. I can get other Porsche from their line up but Im a fan of sports back big sedans Panamera is my ultimate choice in this segment. Only other car that Im interested in is S63 coupe amg but that is more like when I am 50+ yrs old.
