Researching this 99 996
Dealer in Florida has it, when I asked why the bumper was changed out (before I received the Carfax, which states accident in the front) "John" who had the Carfax said he didn't know but he liked it. Servicing seems to be there, but there's times where the oil was changed within 3 months from getting it done? Tried to contact Stoddard who did some work out, forgot they closed shop. Ive emailed some of the shops that did work, still waiting for a reply from them. I know not to base the car on miles, but service records seem to indicate the car was taken care of, it has color, rims, side skirts I want and the front bumper I can deal with as well....what does the board think?

I don't know...this car is just not doing it for me....seems like there is too much pieced together on it but no story as to why. It doesn't even have a wing which makes it look awkward.

Should have stated that I plan on putting a taco on, if it doesn't come with one already for any car I decided to buy. The only thing that is not stock looking is the front changed to a turbo style "look", skirts are oem look, sport rims are oem look as well. the Carfax seems to indicate its story which was mainly serviced as reputable places, but the oil changes are throwing me off?

For sure get a PPI. Have good body shop check for damage beyond just the front bumper replacement.

I am in Daytona for the next 5 weeks, going down to visit my customers right near there probably the week after next.....if you are still interested, I could stop by and check it out for you. I think it looks pretty cool.

You’re worried about too many oil changes? Could be a typo or maybe it was in for some other service and they just threw it in. You’ll probably never know.
I note you didn’t share the VIN, but simply googling that can often be quite informative.

Yup, oil change is suspicious. How many miles on the last oil change?
