Default Chatanooga RL and PPI suggestions?

I am looking at buying a 96tt in Chatanooga. Polar Silver/Flamenco Red, 35k miles, no body or paint work, stock, 2 owner all records $60k. Is anyone local that can look at the car?. Any recommendations for a PPI in the area? Either PM me or call Leonard at 1-505-699-7939.
Thanks!

Forget it, guys. The seller sold the car out from under me. Just not meant to be, I guess.

This is the same car that I was trying to buy, and at the same price. The seller, a self-described vaunted Porsche and high end dealer for many years, had apparently listed it on Autotrader, ebay, and another site simultaneously. I spoke to Russel yesterday evening and again this morning and we agreed to the sale pending PPI, which I had arranged for Monday morning. He seemed very friendly and honest, and we even had a number of people that we knew in common. A real southern gentleman. I did ask him for additional photos, option codes, and service records for review, but everything appeared to indicate that it is a sound car. Later in the morning, he called to inform me that he had accepted wire-transferred funds from one of his previous customers, and that he felt kind of bad about it all, but that the deal was done.
What bothers me is that I thought that I had a real understanding with this dealer, and that the due diligence I was exercising was entirely reasonable. It's a simple case of me letting my impressions preclude being more businesslike and getting a committment in writing once a verbal agreement is reached.
Certainly not the end of my world, just the end of a crimson-trimmed turbocharged 993 dream, for now.

The car you wanted is for sale in the rennlist classifieds now check it out. I have talked to the guy who bought it in the past on a few of his porsches and he is a very knowledgeable porsche guy.
