  1. its either this 996 as its the best I found at a great price, or I dont get a porsche and get a different car! Im in australia and want a cab asap for this summer, prob keep the car for 9mths or so only. '02 models go for about $25-30k more and it is really hard to find a manual!!

    I am getting a long thorough PPI including compression testing, ecu log, full drive train inspection etc. I do not think you can be any safer then that. Will definitelly try get warranty, just for piece of mind.

    I cant believe this, all doom and gloom, noone praising the 911....

  2. ive heard about the issues with some early engines and that is why i am asking here, do the problem motors show any signs or something to watch out for?

    I have been looking for awhile and this is the best early year car i have found with low mileage (95k kms is about 60k miles) and full service history and full documents receipts etc. and was under Porsche warranty until recently.

    With the warnings i have received, i am planning to purchase porsche or 3rd party warranty to protect myself from such issues

  3. Hi guys

    My name is Branko, and am venturing into the world of Porsche by puting a deposit on purchase of a 911 (currently own a '05 M3)

    I have made an offer and put deposit on a silver 1999 Porsche 911 Carrera cabrio with 95k kms.

    The car appears in a very good condition (apart from leather seats which show a bit of age) and owner has supplied me with all receipts from the main porsche dealer (who also supplied warranty on the vehicle until about a year or so ago). This shows 80k major service complete and 95k minor service completion as well as new front/rear rotors and pads. In addition there were 3 repairs:

    - right rocket cover seal leak

    - coolant reservoar crack leak

    - F/R control arm and stabiliser links after suspension noise reported by the owner.

    I have completed a vehicle background check and its clean, and have scheduled the car for thorough inspection by porsche specialist on Friday.

    Are there any recomendations people have on what i should be looking out for etc etc.
