Ok, so I think I am going to take the plunge and buy a C2T. What should I look out for when buying a car? Any things I should ask a shop to look for in a PPI? What would you consider normal milage for a 91 or 92?
(and if anyone has a good car for sale, let me know! ...or if there are any to watch out for...lemme know about those too!)

My 92 turbo
Car needs nothing! I'd keep it but I've run out of garage space. 30K service done plus fresh oil change. Car won 1st place best foreign in local car show this summer. Will not disappoint. I have some room in that price for a rennlister.

Just came across this on Ebay. Looks nice may be worth inquiring about.

Hi Pesky,
Sorry to hear about your car, you are not alone I drove my C2T into a ditch last week-end
happily it was not on the track so insurrance will cover the repairs and the track season was over anyways in the cold part of Europe so I won't miss on anything fun.
Great choice to go for a 964 turbo.
What to look for ?
Some items usualy are toast on most 964turbos, mainly the CBV and AAC valves but they are small items to buy.
Otherwise I find the car is kind of bullet proof, after 30 track days or so she has never let me down. So just check the usual stuff keeping in mind that small oil leaks are common. I think (in Europe at least) that a good 1/3rd of these cars have been involved in an accident of some kind so it's important to look for signs of that and check how the repairs were made.
