my 2cents

Definitely don't rush with this. Porsches are EXPENSIVE to maintain and fix, so you better be ready and make sure the car doesn't need anything major (at least for the immediate future).

That being said, if you don't want to wait the 3 days, try and take it to an independent mechanic. It'll be cheaper and I'm sure they can do it the same day. I would definitely check their reputation though to make sure that they know what they're doing. Also try to verify that they are certified through Porsche to work on cars.

Lastly, if you're willing to wait a little bit, I've realized lately that it'd be a good idea to get the oil checked too from Blackstone. Could tell you a lot about how well the car was maintained as well as potential major problems.

Good luck!
