Default 968 Part supply

I am thinking of buying a 968. However, I read somewhere that the parts supplied from Porsche Classic were quite few for this model.
Is it difficult to maintain the 968 in a good way because of this?

There are still enough parts cars (unfortunately) and Porsche still makes the most common parts, but things that are not replaced as much, like let's say a rear seat bottom are NLA.

But for regular maintenance like oil changes, belts, seals, etc. All available.

Not to mention 944 parts that fit.

Last thing I got that was a little harder to find was a good starter, at this point I think the are all just OEM rebuilt, no more new ones. Porsche wanted close to $1000 for a rebuilt one. Managed to find a rebuilt OEM one for around $200 I think in the end.
