Buying a Used Porsche Classified as Risky
I addressed this in my response to Jeepdad's posting today about buyer's remorse, but I think my mild rants were too much and the powers that be deleted my posting:-)
So I will not complain anymore about AOSs, water pumps or IMS failures. Focus ...Focus
In the March 2015 Car & Driver is a piece on buying used cars. The author categorizes used car purchases as either safe - ambitious - risky and provides examples of each in the $5,000, $15,000 and $25,000 ranges.
The 1999-2000 996 is listed as risky for $15,000.
Unfortunately there wasn't a $10,000 category, if so I expected the 986 to listed as ambitious at best and risky at worst.
After my 232,000 plus mile 99 Boxster reaches 300,000 miles I'm getting a 996.
What are your thoughts?
