I had my PPI done at Rusnak Porsche in Pasadena, CA. They did a very thorough visual inspection of every part of the car (including under the car while up on a lift), tested each feature to ensure proper operation (lights, wipers, etc), test drove the car, and they checked for any codes using the Porsche factory tester.

When I picked up the car, the Porsche technician walked me through the report and showed me each and every item that he had noted in the report so I knew exactly what he was talking about and had an opportunity to ask questions about each item (like is fixing this item really necessary or can I live with it? and if I did want to fix it, about how much would it cost?).

I paid $375 for this service. It took about an hour for the tech to perform the PPI and another 30 mins for the tech to walk me through the report.

Best $375 and 90 minutes that I've ever spent and worth every penny (and minute).
