I think PPI's are overated. There is nothing better than seeing, listening, and driving for yourself... Especially if you are familiar with the car and have owned or driven one or two.
If it's not smoking, leaking oil, starts, drives well, and looks good, what more do you need? Yes, it may need top end work or have other issues, but PPI's can't find everything anyway. If fact, my car runs so well, that if I were selling it, I wouldn't even allow people to PPI it for fear of it being damaged by the PPI. I think if someone would look at and drive my car and still want a PPI, I would think they are crazy. I think a knowledgeable buyer would be able to tell if a car needs further evaluation. Also, a knowledgeable and honest seller is worth more than you can spend on the best PPI money could buy.

I think a good PPI by an expert mechanic who knows the 993 inside and out is priceless. If I coud have SteveW PPI all my 993 purchases past and future, I'd be a happy man.
That kind of PPI is very hard to find. I think most PPIs are not worth much, unfortunately. I've never gotten much value from on personally.

Apparently [and IMO mistakenly] deleted by moderator. They don't like to see one Rennlister get taken advantage of by another. It tarnishes the family image they are trying to portray

its the ****s when an honest seller turns into a dishonest selller because of greed.
when i buy a car and i find out the seller has lied about something i let him know and if he dosent do the right thing i start a lawsuit.
he ****s his pants and discovers it's against the law to lie about the condition car when selling. Of course their are problems with the car thst he cant posdibly know but if he lies, hes liable.
Seller says, car runs perfect, you get the car and it doesnt shift right. He lied about the car running perfect. Hes liable. Seller thinks he. Can get away with it, not so...
I bought one of my 993s from A sponsor here on rennlist ... they lied about the condition of the car they made it right, cost them 3k

Seller shows a ton of invoices for work done and services, you buy the car and discover an invoice that wasnt included with the originall for sale write up and it was an invoice for trouble shooting a problem with the car and you discover the car still has the problem.....the seller had lied, he has to buy the car back or pay you for the repair. Its the law.
When the ppi is done by the sellers shop and they dont disclose a problem with the car because the want thier customer to make the sale, hes opening himself to be inluded in the lawsuit. Seller and ppi shop are in trouble. They think they can get away with it, not so.
