Default PPI in Connecticut

I am looking for someone to perform a PPI on an 06 base model 911 I am considering buying, can any one recommend some one in Connecticut ? Also is there a standard inspection for a PPI or does each vendor's method/inspection differ in thoroughness.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the time and the replies, I need to finalize this purchase soon so I can stop thinking about it constantly. I am looking at an 06 base carrera with mileage in the low 20s for 43k. Does that sound like a fair price? Car seems flawless from a visual inspection.

Sounds like a good deal given the low miles, check autotrader and cargurus for similar used cars for ideas on the prices

On carsgurus you can find a similar car to what you are looing at and they have a market comparison chart that shows price sold for that car versus milage. Give you at least at reference point.

Would be interested in how you came across it, I dont see any car that fits that discription looking through the usuall sites.

Just be carefull of making sure that its not a slavage car, Ct has a shop that sells salvage Pcars and does not tell you about unless you ask them.

Thanks eflight, it sounded pretty good to me as well, the car is local, never saw it listed in any online ads either. He has no service records from the original owner, that is my one concern.
