PPI in the DC area 996
Hi,
I would like to buy a 996 (1999-2003) in the DC area 50 miles around. I found one which I like close to Woodbridge, VA. Where should I take it to get the PPI done? Also can you recommend other locations around DC as I just started the buying project. Thanks, |

I have my 87 serviced at another RPM from time to time. Stan Fox, the owner, is a great guy and can get the job done.
Also, no affiliation. 8210 B. Cinder Bed Road Lorton, VA 22079 (703) 550-8240 rpm@vacoxmail.com best, David

German Auto Group
I just had my car corner balanced and aligned at German Auto Group (in Sprinfield VA, just south of DC).
Very happy with their work. Taylor, the head Porsche mechanic was awesome - takes the time to talk things through. Good luck, Gordo

Don't forget ASG in Fairfax. Ray and Geoff have been in the Porsche business for decades- knowledgable and nice guys. Taylor at German Auto got all his training at ASG, and Stan Fox is a good guy too.

+1 for ASG - They did the PPI on my Carrera four years ago, and I was very impressed with their work and knowledge.
