I bought a '97 last November from a dealer. PPI'd yet not certified. It had 9700 miles on it and it IS perfect. Paid $20,000 for it and it is a daily driver. I think your price is high. Get a PPI and check all records. Any wheels larger than 17" are not advised on a '97. These can be great cars if properly cared for. But if you are going into Porsche for the first time I defer to all the advice. You can get a lot more for the money than you are looking at here. Search out Randall's site for more...Good Luck! Too many IF's about this from what I read.


PS...My low miles '97 has been trouble free so far. I have put 4,000 spirited miles on it so far.. but unless you can afford the day to day maintenaence cost.. be wary! Porsche's are not about purchase price, thet are highly refined machines with low error tolerence, upkeep is EXPENSIVE. Be prepared, there is no bargain Porsche.
