No big loss. A PPI and license plate frame would be all I would ever use an dealership for on an out-of-warranty Porsche. Strike that, I once picked up a MAHLE oil filter there after running out of spares. But Ray Catena Porsche has by far the best complimentary sandwich and doughnut buffett spread in the business!
In alternative you could have the current owner simply ask the dealership to perform a diagnostic of needed maintenance. I had the dealer do this when I was inching closer towards major maintenance. They checked everything -- down to which coil packs need replacing. The service manager handed me the estimate that equalled the car's market value. LOL. He didn't even try to sell me on a single item on his estimate as he could tell I would be taking the car directly to an independent Porsche specialist and saving errr 60% right off the bat. However, a diagnostic would not really dig into things like leak down/compression testing. Point is go with an indy shop with a good reputation to check the car thoroughly.
