I need some input on this car, im going to look at it either tommorow or next saturday and need to know what problems to look for, and what you guys think about it. thanks

Surprisingly for the type of owner it appears to have... it looks like it is actually well taken care of. Check for receipts on waterpump/timing belt, and mileage since these items... Check the best you can for electric gremlins, besides that i can't think of much> Someone had a whole list. It may be a good idea to get a PPI (pre purchase inspection) from a porsche shop or dealer, it only costs 100-200 dollars and they will check it for everything it could be.

Also check clutch, clutch is a big job.

Well, the 'envistment in the new strucks all four around' makes that car worth looking at. Good luck, and get a PPI.

Struts I imagine, but they are not "all around" as the front end is the only place with struts.......

Yea, sounds like he either doesn't know what he's either mistaken or a scammer. In any event, insist on receipts for all this work that's been done. And take that stupid exhaust off.

I tend to steer clear of cars that have been molested or owned by boy racers. Who knows how he drove that car, it could have been redlined with a cold engine on a daily basis, drag raced, etc etc. When I buy a car, the vibe I get from the owner is a huge deciding factor about whether I buy the car or not. I've always walked away from cars that have been owned by abusers or non-enthusiasts for the reasons above. I don’t want a car someone has abused and driven into the ground.

You'll want to look at a sample of early car (pre 85.5) and late (85.5 +) to determine if you have a strong preference for the interior changes.

Also, Porsche did quite a nice job painting these cars. That paint get's a little beat after 15+ years and 100k miles, but it's often still quite nice to work with. Be sure you like the concept of a repainted car. If it's done really well, it's an added bonus. If it's not... who knows.

My 2 cents...
