PPI mechanics and remote buying

Hello all, I'm new too, and also looking for a boxster. The problem is I live in rural Missouri and now boxsters are around, so I have to buy one without seeing it (mechanically). Everyone mentions a proper PP inspection, but how do I find one when the car may be in Florida or Utah? Is there a traveling group like inspectmyride.com for Porsches? I'm very nervous about buying a car that I will only fly to once I've bought it.
I'm looking at a 2001-2004 used Boxster, probably an S model (I very briefly test drove both while in Denver and the base seemed sluggish compared to the S, though it could have been that individual one).
I am amazed at how many 10 year old Boxsters can be found under 50,000 miles! Don't people drive them? Is it a bad thing to find a 10 year old Boxster with 30,000 miles on it?
Thanks in advance for any help that can be offered. I'm dedicated to getting a yellow Boxster and will post pics when I get one (hopefully in the next couple of weeks, once I can decide).
Mike
