Hello!
I'm looking at purchasing a 2003 996 C4s and heard that another buyer was concerned about the average speed but don't know what to expect here. Is ~40mph unusual? Any insight is appreciated! Is anything seriously wrong? Any potential negotiation points? Here is a link to the listing:

The 6 ranges (for 997) are:
Range 1 - 7200-7500
Range 2 - 7500-7700
Range 3 - 700-7900
Range 4 - 7900-8400
Range 5- 8400-9500
Range 6 - 9500 up
You really don't need to worry about anything other than ranges 4 to 6.
Hi Loren,
Thanks for the ranges! Do you think the Range 4 is cause for concern in this case?
Best,

Hello!
Thanks in advance for your help. Someone from my local Porsche group suggested I inquire here about an over-rev report I received as part of my due diligence on a 2012 997.2 base (6-speed) I'm considering buying. The PPI was conducted by German Car Repair in Alpharetta, GA, and showed the following results:
TOTAL HOURS 1848.84
RANGE 1 - 1124 @ 1846.66H
RANGE 2 - 40 @ 1549.41H
RANGE 3 - 22 @ 1549.41H
RANGE 4 - 106 @ 1549.41H
RANGE 5 - -----------------
RANGE 6 - -----------------There is conflicting information online about how severe Range 4 overrevs are, and it's interesting that the ignitions are higher in Range 4 than Range 3. The clutch was replaced after this report was done, and has been driven over 10K miles since with no issues (according to the seller). Any insights would be appreciated!
Best,
Max

Not sure! I thought that maybe some codes on the report would indicate the faults. Will check with the seller.
