Especially someone who might know some people in the area PCA?
My search for a replacement SUV has led me - somewhat predictably, given how excited I get about SUVs - back to 911 C4s. Which in turn led me to this:

A quick look suggests the poster is a dealer and I was wondering if someone has a little background info on this dealer?
It's not my favourite model but given the prices I see down here for one of the 3.4L ones it seems to be a decently priced car.
Oh, hi, you rang? (Member of the Oregon PCA, lives 45 miles from Portland, owns a Porsche)
Indeed I did 
.
Some insight if this dealer has cars worth travelling for might be very welcome.
A quick search of our local PCA magazine shows no ads or recommendations. I'll have to do some digging for you then...
If there's some easy digging I'd appreciate it but I don't think it's necessary to spend too much time on this yet. I'm also on the trail of a '90 C4 that's a lot closer to us and that would probably be my first choice if it's in reasonable condition.
Sorry, me again.
Any comments on "Luxe Autohaus"? They have two 964 C4s advertised that may be of interest if the wife can live with blue leather.
Luxe Autohaus started off as one guy selling by consignment out of Seattle. As far as I know, it's still pretty close to that...
I don't necessarily have a problem dealing with a shop like that if he has decent cars...
Here's the two in question, they look like they're identical twins:

BTW, I assume there's a decent Porsche wrench somewhere in Portland who could PPI something like this?
The dream of the 90's is alive in Portland.
In reply to BoxheadTim:
Ah damn, sorry, I was confusing Luxe with somebody else. Luxe Autohaus is actually a pretty quality local dealer. Quite a few of our local PCA people bought from them and were happy.
As for a shop to do the PPI, Sunset Porsche or Marque Motors are the local shops of choice.
