The Idiots Guide to Buying a 986
Step 1: Get a PPI from a reputable Porsche shop
The End.

That's it. All you need to know.

Trying to become knowledgeable enough through internet forums to buy a Porsche without a PPI is like trying to become your own doctor by reading WedMD. Oh, I know, people can and have done it (both bought Porsche's and became their own doctor), but the risks are high. At the end of the day, its your money and its still (for the moment) a free country, so proceed however you like, but a PPI is the best money you'll ever spend.
