One Man's Story
I bought our '97 with 16K on the odo (Aug 2015). Very little in the way of records. I was able to talk with the mechanic that had touched it last. I have put 9K+ on it and so far so good. It was/is in really good shape. I have spent +/- 3k on it in 18 months. Most recently new tires $640. About a third of the money for wants the rest on maintenance. I know cars pretty well but this is my first Porsche. I bought it without a PPI for $11k (base/tip) and it came with the factory hardtop. There were plenty of cars available for less, but they all had +/- 100K on them. I was willing to gamble for the lower odo.
I can usually get a pretty good hunch/feel from the owner by looking at his other cars and garage/house/yard how well they maintain things. Best of luck with your search.
