Default Need a check at a C4 in Chicago area, Plz!...

Hello listers:

I am looking at a p64 in the Chicago area, and I would greatly appreciate if someone can check it up for me. Eventually, I will plan a PPI.

Please let me know via pm or flatsix_911@yaoo.com

I'd recommend Fischer Motors in Barrington for your PPI. Talk to Rick Fischer 847-304-8822.

Thank you and will follow through.. Now, wanted to know how important it's to do a PPI from a dealer with a 30 days full warranty?..

I'd say you'd be fine if you only plan to own the Porsche for 29 days.

ALWAYS do a PPI!

I have not seen it. That is the only Porsche dealer in Westmont, just curious if there or a private owner.

I might have a very narrow band of time to swing by and give it a once over, but my first porsche was a 996 GT3, so other than it looks good, not sure how much help I might be. Shoot me a PM or email of what you would like to know and I can give you an approximate window of availability.

That was a trade in, so I am sure there is a private owner since I have all of the records but the name wasn't released to me.

Anytime Mike, I will appreciate it.. I was able to find an inspector who's going there tomorrow morning and will see.. Thanks again!

Not meaning to pee in your Cheerios but if this licensed inspector isn't an experienced air cooled Porsche mechanic with specific 964 experience, it isn't money well spent IMHO....

Actually, this inspector will only appraise the car then will have it mechanically checked by a p-specialist..
