My name is Rob ,and I have been visiting this site for almost 3 yrs. now.I purchased a 92 /c2/964 / tip last yr. and am finally getting to have some time to get involved in this great site.I work out of town alot, almost 11 months a yr.

I bought the car in NY.at Cannillo motorsports , in Deer Park. I didn't know anything about a PPI for these cars, I just saw the car and went to look at it the next day , drove it checked everything you can by sight and ear, thru gears, steering hard, backing up, looking for leaks etc.
as I have been around cars for a long time.

Anyway I have driven the car hard, slow in traffic , highway, backroads fast and the P car, drives perfect in all situations. I paid 22,000 for her and I think I got a good deal as she is in great condition in and out with carfax cert 55,000 miles on her. I will try and post some pics

I was wondering if anybody knows of a good mech, in this area that I can take her to and get checked out . and a few things done to keep up the maintenance.

I am fairly new here but have been following the site for a while as well, i have never seen an arm rest like the one you have, did it come stock with your car or did you buy it separately?

Hello afast16v
Yes it came with the car but I have the orginal receipt for it ,the armrest flips up out of the way and also has a cup holder inside. I will try and get you the part # and where he got it from.

There are many good Porsche shops in WC, PA. I just moved from Downingtown. Both Dougherty and Performance Automotive are very good. I have used them both.
Next go to the local PCA web site http://www.rtr-pca.org/vroom-vroom/index.html

Good luch and enjoy.

Rob
