Thanks everyone for the advice and patience with my limited mechanical knowledge. Your help really gueded me through my difficult experience today. So glad that this board exists and is so responsive.

I ultimately had the car looked at by two separate mechanics (from the same location though). One I got to before he could be spoken with about the situation. He stepped me through the whole process as he worked and made me feel very at ease. I even got some time with the Porsche Diagnostic Computer.

I am going through with the purchase as I feel I have found a perfect match for me. There are no guarantees in life, but I definitely went the distance in my quest for mechanical nirvana.

Spent the few hundred for the oil leaks. I was told repeatedly that this could wait til I got home, but I figured... why wait?

I really can't complain.
