I know how it is - here's this great "deal" and it looks good and you'd have a PORSCHE! But this is seriously a BAD idea. There are only so many things that a mechanic can check. Don't be the sucker the seller is looking for.
More than that, I've discovered that it's not a good idea to try to get in "cheap" into a sportscar. The old saying is, "If you have to ask - you can't afford it". Well, the Porsche saying should be, "If it's all you can afford - you can't afford it". These are expensive vehicles to maintain and insure. A rip in your top and you'll be out $2,000. Blow the engine? That will be a cool $13,000.
Now, if you can afford to maintain it - then you can afford to buy something that isn't a Salvage POS. You can get into a Boxster with decent mileage (less than 50,000) for under $20,000. If you can go mid twenties, you can even pick one up with a warranty.
Don't buy that POS. Don't do it. Move along - nothing to see here.
