Hi all,

I'm considering the purchase of an '83 SC Coupe in the Rochester area and was hoping someone could point me to a good shop or mechanic for a proper PPI. I'm way down south (Alabama) and would prefer not to use the local dealer if at all possible.

Thanks

You can go on www.pca.org and check with the local porsche club, they are usually pretty helpfull.

I have done that and sent a couple messages off to the local officers. I haven't heard anything back so I thought I'd check with the Rennlisters as well.

Thanks

They are on Rt. 251 in Victor NY. Scott and Mike are both stand up guys!

I bought my car from CDI about three years ago. CDI was pretty good to deal with - seemed like good guys.

I had the PPI done at another shop based on the recommendation of a friend of a friend. If i had to do it again, i would have the PPI done somwhere other than where i had it done. For that reason, I won't make a recommendation and simply stick to feedback on my experience with CDI.

James Could you share where you would NOT have the PPI done ?
just to help any future propossed PPI'er

I would understand if you did not want to share.

Have you considered Cantech in Syracuse, an hour south? Have not used them, but hear generally good things.

My PPI experience wasn't bad. I just have a suspicion that i may not have gotten all that i paid for cuz some of the information i was provided seemed a little too good and consistent, if you know what i mean. I was of course blinded by the excitment so didn't think to do anything about it at the time. They did miss a couple of obvious things like cruise not woking, spoiler wall broken and a paint issue but otherwise provided some good feedback and insight into the car.

I'll send a PM to the OP.

Cantech did some work for me a few years ago. Very good mechanics. If they don't like a car, believe me, they will tell you !
