    I need a PPI on a 355 spyder I will be picking up (if everything checks out) in Dallas @ Boardwalk Porsche. Can any of you point me in the right direction to get a thorough PPI? Anyone know alot about 355s that might be willing to check it out? Any help would greatly be appreciated and I would def grab dinner or something next time I am in texas or you were in NYC wherever you wanted. Thanks in advance.

    Never used them, but they are recommended time and time again in the TX boards. I've never read anything bad about them on the site.

    Jay,

    Thanks for the heads up, ill give them a call tomorrow morning. Do you guys recommend having Boardwalk Ferrari do it if I am buying the car from Boardwalk Porsche? Is it better to have an independent do it?

    Stick with Norwood. Cheaper, better, and not affiliated.

    Norwoods would get my vote. And I vote with my wallet! :) Call and talk to James, 972-831-8111.

    Not a lot of options, Norwood is about it around here. there's a few independents that will check it out if forced, but they don't like doing it. Norwood's is not what it was 2 years ago. If they do the PPI, make sure it goes ONLY to you, not to the dealer. That way you'll get an honest opinion.

    Make sure James himself does the inspection.
