The cats going out that early doesn't sound common to me. And those are gonna be expensive! Call Sunset in Oregon to find out what replacements cost so you'll know up front.

The cam covers do leak... my driver's side drips now and then. If this is what you're talking about, it's not a big deal IMO. Now if the rear main seal is leaking, that's a completely different issue, and an expensive one to fix.

There are other things to check on the car... pull up the carpet and piece of wood in the trunk and see if you can find coolant, wet or dried. If so, it as a resovoir leak and the overflow tank should be replaced or deducted from your final negotiated price.

There's other stuff that wears out or breaks prematurely too... this car needs a proper PPI from a Porsche dealer to catch them all. It's the best $250 you will ever spend on that car, I assure you.
