Default Help Please - PPI - Looking for an Indy in Huntsville, Alabama

Looking for a referral to an independent mechanic that could do a PPI on a Porsche dealer car in Huntsville, Alabama.

Thanks!

Sounds like this might be an opportunity for a RennFax!

Jen, yes it is FINALLY time! I put a deposit down on a C2S this evening and will pick it up next Friday!

I haven't see you around these parts lately. Work and the dog been keeping you busy?

I just noticed your other post! Congrats!!!!!!!!!! You deserve it!

I've been lurking since I am now Porsche-less. Driving an X5 diesel right now. I, too, am looking to get back in very soon. I'll let you know when I am coming to Greenville for service on the X. then, I can see and enjoy your car!

I didn't know you were Porsche-less. Did you trade it in on the X5? How long without a Porsche?

Definately let me know when you are in Greenville. The BMW dealership is about 2 miles from my office.

Porsche-less almost a year now. I had 2 vehicles, the C2S and a Lexus 250HS. I needed to get down to one car. Neither were practical or roomy enough for the dogs! So, got a smokin' deal on the ordered X5 which I traded the C2S and then just got rid of the Lexus on swapalease. X5 lease will be up 11/13, so I have time to decide. Of course, my logic is always wrong when it comes to cars. Dogs don't ride much now, so I am thinking another 911, but I want a coupe this time. I'll keep you posted! But, for now, enjoy your new car!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have always preferred coupes. I has been almost too hot this summer to enjoy a Cab.

Thanks!

I am going to drive there to pick it up. 6 hours one way.

Including the layovers, it is almost 4 hours to fly to Huntsville. Add 1 hour since you have to be at the airport 1 hour early, then the dealer would have to pick me up at the airport, which is probably another 20 minutes. That's a total of about 5 hours and 20 minutes. Hell, it will be easier to drive!

I am not excited al all!
