I have done this a few times, all with positive results.
It does depend, as always on the car, age of the car and associated paperwork.
I bought a 1994 964 in 2005 from a guy 1500 miles away, but he scanned in all the right maintenance docs, I had a good local tip on a mechanic for the PPI, and it felt right. Great car, great deal.
I bought a car from a guy in Kansas. At the time the 4Runner was fairly new, the mileage and docs were inline and the guy was/is a member of this board. I bought it without a PPI. I had business in San Diego, flew to Wichita, stumbled around with my bank card and drove back to Maryland. It remains my wife's car. After over 80,000 miles, zero issues. None.
Whatever you get, drive it home.
