Palm Beach · Palm Beach County
Pre-purchase car inspection in Palm Beach
A make-specialized Master Certified Technician comes to the car in Palm Beach: dealer lot, driveway or parking lot. Anthony Lapadula dispatches the right specialist and walks you through the report.
Palm Beach County's used-car market leans luxury: European sedans, high-end SUVs, exotics, and plenty of low-mileage cars from seasonal residents. Those are exactly the vehicles where a generalist inspection falls short. Inspect First comes to the car, and Anthony Lapadula dispatches a Master Certified Technician who specializes in that make — a Porsche specialist for the Porsche, a Range Rover specialist for the Range Rover.
You get a same-day written report with photos and a phone walkthrough with Anthony, in English or Spanish.
What makes buying a used car in Palm Beach different?
Luxury and exotic volume
Air suspension, complex electronics and make-specific engine issues are where luxury-car repair bills come from. A make specialist knows where to look on that specific car.
Seasonal buyers and sellers
Palm Beach has a real season. Cars get sold when owners head north, and bought by people who are only in town for a few weeks. We inspect quickly so a seasonal timeline doesn't force a blind purchase.
Low miles, long storage
A garage-kept car with low miles can still have dried seals, old tires and a tired battery. Age matters as much as mileage.
Coastal exposure
Cars that live on the barrier island or near the Intracoastal see salt air. Underbody and brake corrosion are checked.

Palm Beach pre-purchase inspection FAQ
Do you inspect exotics and high-end European cars in Palm Beach?
Yes. Anthony dispatches a specialist for the specific make. Most luxury cars fall under the Premium / Luxury inspection at $399; hyper-exotics and EVs are quoted by the vehicle.
Can you inspect a car for a seasonal buyer who's leaving soon?
Yes. Appointments are typically scheduled within 24–48 hours, often the same day, and the report is delivered the same day as the inspection.
Do you cover West Palm Beach, Jupiter and Palm Beach Gardens?
Yes — along with Lake Worth, Royal Palm Beach and the rest of Palm Beach County.
Is a low-mileage garage car still worth inspecting?
Yes. Long storage causes its own problems, and low miles don't reveal past accident repairs. Paint depth and frame checks do.
Can the inspection happen at a private residence?
Yes. We coordinate with the seller and inspect in the driveway or garage.
