2001 w/76k bought on Labor Day - 2006. No problems. Came w/new battery & new tires. Original owner was from Beverly Hills. Very clean and very nice. Top looks bnew. Wife wouldn't let me buy it until we negotiated driving days. She gets M-W-F and I get Tues and Thurs. I don't care...this ride is the coolest! If James Dean was alive today, he would be driving "my" Arctic Silver Porsche!

Age: 1998
Miles: 99,000 kms = 60,000 miles
Bought in may 2003, at 64,000kms

Major problems:
- Engine replaced (long before I got it)
- 4 new shocks (last about 100,000kms
- MAF sensor
- cables for roof mechanism
- Coolant reservoir cracked
- LED in instrument cluster
- Roof mechanism switch
- New front bumper after find an imprint of a tow ball through the license plate into the bumper itself.

It's a love/hate relationship now. Repairs are very damm expensive, but drives like a new car with those new shocks, which makes me love her all the more
