I completely agree with those recommending that you take your time. I spent about an hour a day for 9 months researching my 2003 Boxster S with 17,900 miles on it, before I bought it. They seem to go for about $7k less now (only 18 months later!).

I also agree with those who say to keep something in reserve. Depending on where you live, the DMV may collect sales tax when you transfer the title. I think I paid $2,200 to the DMV to transfer the title and register it.

Like everyone else had added already

Be ready to fix the thing.
Good luck in the hunt and hopefully we will see you soon with a photo of your new toy.
