I have fallen in love
I've fallen in love with a silver 993 turbo with black rims It's got 62k miles on it, I want to love it forever, what do you guys suggest? Replace turbos?
I don't know any history of the car, no idea if PPI has been done, no leakdown or compression tests, just love at first site - posted for a hair under 60k$
Not sure, I found a M3 V8 for a little cheaper, but I want more of a drivers car
- Valve gaskets
- valve covers
- oil + filter
- spark plugs
- Replace fuel filter
- Change belts
- Change trans fluid
- Flush brake fluid
- Replace dist. cap
- Replace engine air filter
- Replace cabin (2) filters
- Do the 996TT oil line check valves
- Cylinder head temp sensor> #3 cylinder
- knock sensors
- New MAF
- throttle position sensor
- MAP, temperature sensor

You guys think the price is not a little high for 62k miles?
I have heard that this is near the time for turbos to be replaced
I will be daily driving -- 12k miles a year minimum

probably a $50k - $55k car IF everything checks out. Be sure to get PPI including leakdown and valve guide wear. If you buy it..remove the four window stickers on the drivers side

I bought a 58k mike '97 arctic silver/black with sport seats for $54k and it needed $6500- to make it perfect.
So about $60.5k all in all for a perfect 58k mile car with brand new turbos.
Based on people in the know, my car should be high $50's for a mint condition 58k mile car with no accidents. Mine has a fender bender on it's record. I probably should be in at around $57k. I can live with overpaying by $3-4k to have my baby...
