Hello all!
First post. I’ve been interested in owning a 911 for quite a white and decided on the 993. I found what appears to be a nice drivers car (88k miles, no accidents) and need a PPI performed at the dealership.
Does anyone have a recommendation local to that particular area? I’d like to perform some due diligence here, but would asking the selling dealership to perform a PPI based on a provided checklist be a wasted effort? Not the ideal solution obviously.
Appreciate all input - first Porsche purchase.

Autowerks is in HB. I have never used them personally but I have heard good things and always see air cooled Porsche's outside their shop when I drive by. Need to find a shop that knows air cooled.

You may want to check in with the 993 forum. Super active group on Rennlist. The key issue to examine is a history of failed smog tests. The Achilles heel of the 993 is worn valve guides causing blockage in the OBD smog system causing failed tests. Can be a nightmare to deal with - from a crazy cleaning process to a top end rebuild. I love the 993 - would like to get another one someday.
