    Hey guys! Trying to get into a 360 and would love to get a recommendation for a knowledgeable mechanic who could go over one I'm interested in.
    The car is in Ashburn, I'll obviously get it transported for a PPI but the closer the better.

    Thanks for any suggestions...
    Rich.

    I called Competitzione about PPI-ing my 575 and they informed me that they no longer do PPIs. Unless someone knows of another independent in the area, FOW is your best bet - ask for James in service. They aren't terribly expensive, but getting the car transported up that way sure is, so if someone can drive it for you I highly recommend that. I don't think FOW is far from Ashburn. Good luck!

    Another option might be LoCo Exotics as they are reasonably close to FoW, but I am not sure if they do PPIs. However, I have never done business with LoCo Exotics and so can make no comment on quality, etc.

    I have used a company called Keystone Enterprise out of Carlisle PA. Prices to transport are fair. They kept me informed
    the entire journey. Small Husband and Wife outfit, they even carry 2 million in insurance on the cargo.

    Now that I think about, Matt at White Horse may be a good option and possibly less expensive than the towing companies. His price for pickup/delivery of my car from MD to far southeastern VA was ridiculously good.

    Working with Matt on a transport now. Top notch.

    FOW has a Sterling mailing address, but they're actually right on the southeastern edge of Ashburn. I don't know if Loco does PPIs, but they're only a few miles from FOW, over by Dulles airport. I'd be surprised if the owner couldn't drive the car to either location themselves, unless they're super-busy or out of town.

    FYI. I had a great phone conversation with Greg @ LOCO Exotics. He seems to be very knowledgeable about 360's so if all goes smooth, he could be doing a PPI on it soon ;-)

    One other great choice would be Scott at rossoservice. Not sure if he does ppi but he does amazing work. He did my major last year and I couldn't be happier

    Thanks guys. I'll keep all this in my notebook.
    I ended passing on the car I was looking at before needing a PPI.

    Thanks for the offer. I’m still in the market for a 6sp 360. If you know of one off market, let me know. Asking prices are just too high, they’re not moving and they don’t want to deal...
    PM me if you know of any...
