Hi folks, I'm going to go check out a 2003 996 C4 Cab on Monday. Here is a quick description:
Slate Grey Metallic
All Wheel Drive
6-Cyl. 3.6liter 315hp 273lb torque
6 Speed Manual Transmission
Black Leather
Auto Climate Control
Premium Sound w/CD Player
18" premium Alloy w/ New Tires
Dual Front / Side Airbags
Full Service History
Service History - Clean CarFax
New IMS Ceramic Bearing Upgrade
New Clutch / flywheel Upgrade
I checked out the CarFax and it's had 3 previous owners. The service records look great and the dealer/shop is installing new tires, new clutch & flywheel, LN Engineering ceramic IMS and replacing the RMS.
The dealer has great ratings and is a Porsche shop. Hopefully everything goes smooth and I can finally add a 911 to the family.
Please feel free to throw any pointers my way. Cheers!

price seems high.. I would beat them up... although your description looks good., it may still be missing a few services.. plugs coils replaced ? w/p replaced? last brake job/? rotors?
good luck !

I just spoke to the shop that used to service it for the last owner and said he was meticulous about the car. He had the expansion tank, plugs, and clutch done at 80k. The w/p was done at 73k. The technician said he would buy the car without question. I'm feeling very good going into this.
By all means, please keep the advice coming folks!

Never trust the mechanic of current owners car. (I'm generalizing, but in most cases) Most mechanics have been paid for prior services and loyalty will be on current owners side. Get it checked out by an unbiased mechanic. You need negotiating room and you can't negotiate when its owner/mechanic allied.
