advice on a 2002 986

[porshhh]

hello everyone!

i came across a '02 986 in Polar Silver Metallic at a car dealership today. it has a 5 speed manual gearbox and already has 96,563 miles on it. i wasn't able to view the entire car in full detail (interior, engine, underpinnings) but from the exterior of the car, it doesn't have any body misalignments, scratches or dings. the soft top is in great condition too and it seems like the car was well taken care of by the previous owner. they are selling it at $14,995 and the Kelly Blue Book suggested retail value is at $13,500.

i don't know much about Porsches (mechanically) and if ever, this will be my first Porsche. i always wanted one after a friend gave me a ride in his 987.

since i will be taking a 2nd look of the car in the next coming days, i would like to know what should i look and watch out for to make sure that it will be a good purchase. also, if ever i do buy it, what will be the maintenance procedures needed for its current mileage?

thank you in advance for your help!
