Default NOVA shop needed for PPI

Hey all.

Been lurking here while shopping for a used C6. Finally found one, now I'm looking for a NOVA shop to have a PPI done. I see Coopers Corvettes is up there (I'm in Richmond). Or, a dealership? I'm thinking a basic checklist style PPI and maybe a leakdown test. It's an '06 with 51k miles. Any suggestions for shops or which tests I should have done would be highly appreciated. Anything special to look for?

Thanks in advance.

Coopers is a good place.

The shop manager, Tom McGrath (Sr.) is a very good guy - tell him Chris sent ya'


He did the work on my old Trans Am and it was PERFECT!!!!!

Another option if the car is up on the Beltway, is Joe Malo at Koons Tyson Chevy. His Service Advisor, is Bill Appel.

Again, Please tell him Chris sent you. I don't get a thing for that other than he knows who looks out for him

Good folks!

I purchased two vettes from them and they've worked on many of my other ones. Never had any issues.
