Default Introduction/Car inspection favor? - Columbus, Ohio

First time 911 buyer here. I'm stationed in Florida and in the processing of purchasing a CPO 2013 911 with 9k miles from Byer's Porsche in Columbus, Ohio. I have many pictures of the car, but sadly will be buying the car sight unseen and having it shipped. The manager states it's immaculate minus one small 3" curb rash on the right rear that is getting fixed by Wheel Medic on Monday.

Anyone in the Columbus area mind driving by to give their two cents on the exterior condition? Here is the car:

Thanks in advance, looking forward to being a part of this community and finally owning a Porsche!

Try George;
http://mobileinspections.com/

He is a pro inspector and Porsche owner.
He inspected my car, that I bought from Byers.
He saw things I would not have noticed myself.
His price was more than reasonable too.

Thanks, much appreciated. I just spoke with George, he may be able to look at it next Friday. In the meantime, if anyone in the Columbus area wants to give it a one over on the lot, I'd be happy to send a nice piece of AF memorabilia for the efforts!

Hi Tom,
I am from Dublin, OH (Suburb in Columbus) also and I am expecting my GTS this week from Byers (I surely hope so, still waiting for the transport in Davisville). I passed by there last Friday and yesterday. I know I am **** and checking if my car has been delivered. I only saw 1 red Targa on their holding lot. I didn't look at their showroom since I just drove by, on my way home. Send me the pics so that I can check it out. What are the things that you want me to check? I will be checking with them on Tuesday on the way to Esoteric for a chat about their products and paint correction/protection training.

Tom, I hope your membership status gets updated soon. I made the payment today and sent a note to a moderator (911SLOW) for the payment to be proper assigned to your account. Have fun on Rennlist and welcome to the 991 Forum and ownership experience!

Sorry I didn't see this sooner. I'll be at Byers next week for service. Let me know if you still need someone to take a look or if there's something in particular you want to double check.

That's a nice thing to do LexVan! I'm a Vietnam nam vet..( although didn't get in country) and I'm sure he appreciates that. Thanks Tom for your service and welcome to the Renn! Goods guys here.
