Good place for PPI in Studio City, CA?

Found a 2002 Boxster at The Speed Gallery:

http://www.thespeedgallery.com/inventory/main.php?mode=album&album=2002%20PORSCHE%20BOXTER%20Gray%20Gray&dispsize=640&startsite=1

What do you guys think? Did a search on the forums here and The Speed Gallery seems to have a respectable reputation.

Will be sending a friend down to have a look at it- can you guys recommend a good mechanic nearby to do the PPI?

Thanks,

Legume

Beverly Hills Porsche is nearby I would have them do it.

And yes The Speed Gallary does have a good reputation but that doesn't mean the car itself doesn't have problems.

Gave them a call. They said that they'd charge $310 for a basic inspection. Are there any reputable local mechanics that would do it for less? I paid $135 for one in San Diego for a boxster I wound up not buying.

While I understand the value of getting a PPI, the costs can start adding up particularly if the cars I'm looking at don't pan out. $310 here and $310 there can add up to a few thousand quickly.
