3.4 d-chunk failure possible. 3.6 d-chunk failure rare, ditto for 3.2 S. Boxster. Although I'm not sure if a 3.4 averaging 5K miles is low enough mileage to be the typical example of this failure. Still that's on the low end of mileage for a 14 year old car.
Turbo too much understeer. tail steps out... even more understeer. Don't see how gobs of understeer is an 'upgrade'.
One is fully a grand touring. The C2 is only taking first steps toward that eventuality.
I would look for 996 C2S from 2002-2004 with the IMS already addressed.
If you can swing it, a CPO 997.2 is better.
A guy I know of who has more Porsches than there are days of the week once told me, "I never buy Turbos from Porsche out of warranty."
