Anybody in the Phoenix area want to do a P-PPI for me on a '04 996
Pre-PPI - I guess...
Same old story I'm 2,100 miles away and the pictures look great, but I've already nixed 2 cars after spending close to $300 each for PPI's. I know that's why you get them, but it still smarts in the wallet. All I'm after is a visit to the dealer, a thorough walk around and look underneath for leaks, cupped tires - obvious stuff. Ideally a test drive. I could make a checklist and you can do any or all. I just want to get a better feel before I have them take it in for a formal PPI. So if you have a spare afternoon and want to test drive a '04 996, I'd be eternally grateful. Thanks Please PM me.

356,
I wanted to help Steve out but it was a bit too far for me. The car is at a dealer on Scottsdale Rd near McDowell - not too far from PHX.

Hey there Kurt! Long time no see my friend. Hope all is well. Darin DeYoung at DeYoung motors in Prescott is a first class Porsche wrench with a great shop. Not a cheap date but who wants that so much anyway when you're talking cars like our 996 Turbos? PPI's are a must and a competent one worth every penny.

Hey Donny! Darin is a great guy, he did a little work on my car before I found Jay.
Please give a heads up the next time there is a Porsches-to-Prescott, I'd like to make it up.
