Your concerns should be about the engine & suspension, not the carbon bits & badges. Getting a thorough PPI done by a Porsche mechanic is a must, it could easily cost you thousands in maintenance if it's not sound. I'm assuming the dealership that certified the car did this? I'd ask for the report. Does it come with a warranty? That would be great, and add a ton of confidence.

CV Boots, water pump, RMS, IMS, MAF sensor, AOS, and more (search the forum, you'll find plenty) typically need maintenance at some point in these cars life, so if you can't tell what's been serviced, and / or if it's not warrantied (even if it is), I'd probably get an independent PPI done.
