I paid $260 for a PPI from my closest Porsche dealer for an '02 BS I was considering. I was given a list of items they said were required that totaled over $4K worth of work. I then discovered the Independent who had serviced the car for over 3 years and was informed that much of the work 'required' by the dealer had been done ONE MONTH EARLIER. I then spoke to a different, closer, Independent who debunked another $2K of worth of Dealer quotes. Ugh.

So...I just splurged and spent $200 (two hundred) at Pelican for the balance of the "$4K" required.

I have to say...unless you are REALLY comfortable with your Dealer, stick with an Independant that has great references. I walk up to Porsche owners and just ask, "Who takes care of your car?". Worth it.
