So, you relied 100% on the PPI then. I've thought of that, but I think I'd like to see the car either before or after the PPI before calling it a done deal.

Also, do you fully trust car transporters with a Porsche?

And my last question: did you use an escrow service for the payment and title transfer? If not, aren't you sticking your neck out a bit wiring funds to someone who could possibly not sign the title over to you and skip town? (Of course, if I fly out to pick up the car to drive home, it's a face to face swap of the money and title)
