Looking at a '99, what do you guys think?

Hey guys, so I've been patiently searching for a Porsche and think I have found the one for me. Its a silver 1999 model with 83k miles and looks to be in good condition. They just recently had the water pump replaced and some other maintenance done. The only current issue is that the fuel gauge doesn't always work according to the owner. I checked the car Carfax report and it is clean with only three owners. The last two were family members and it has been owned by them for almost 15 years. They also have every record and maintenance receipt which is very nice! He is asking $7,500.

Anyway, it appeared to drive nice and I didn't notice any issues. I tried all the controls and made sure everything was working except the top since it was a little cold this morning and I'll have the shop check it tomorrow. I didn't notice any leaks while driving it around for a while either. I went ahead and scheduled a PPI tomorrow at Drive European in Falls Church and if all that goes well, hopefully I'll have a new to me Boxster!

If any of you guys have any advice or input based on what I've described so far, let me know what you think!
