I wouldn't trust any sticker - too easily replicated. There should be a paper receipt or it never happened.
Last, get a PPI so you know the general condition and possible repair areas.

Thanks for the heads up.
PPI has always been my plan, post purchase.
Already been talking with the local independent shop.
They seem very eager to help and have good online reviews.
I don't know anyone with a Porsche, so that's all I have to go on.
I haven't personally owned a car for about 12 years.
Been a truck guy since I sold my last car.
