Can I get some help on a Denver car?
I sure would appreciate someone with a good eye looking at a car for me. Also, recommendations on a PPI shop in the area. Could be a time-sensitive opportunity on a high-mileage 993.

Gents -
Thanks for both your responses! I am very near purchasing this car!!!!!!
The seller and I have agreed on a price and a commitment, and I just need to verify that the car is as it was described - and it was a pretty strong description.
TroyN, I certainly don't mind another set of eyes! Do you have a contact at either of these shops you recommended? The car has been serviced at Storz in the past - I spoke to Mike today about it - he seemed very honest and helpful!
Any other feedback on this process is very welcome. The car is a 96 C4S manual with 100K miles and some attractive track-related upgrades.
The price is a bit of a stretch for my present bank account, so I have to make sure there are no surprises after I become the new owner.

RE: Storz, Mike and Bob, and yes both are honest and helpful. At Euro, Greg Johnson and Orren (sp?). I would have as part of the PPI a check of the valve guides since they can be an issue at that mileage and you don't want a surprise top-end needed. Please PM details if you want me to take a look; I don't always remember to recheck posts, and good luck!

Help in Denver
jhale,
I called and left a message early this morning. Orrin called me back a short while later, and spent over an hour of his time talking me through a HUGE list of details on 993 + high miles in general - what a fantastic guy!! Knowing that I am well out of the area, he offered all kinds of insight and a free education - plus an offer to help with any follow-up I might need. I should add that a good portion of it has me thinking a lot - and he was clearly not trying to get PPI business out of me.
I'd like to offer a little plug for him and their shop, based on a very strong first impression!
