Did you run into any problems with CA smog testing? Will the shop doing the PPI be able to tell if the car would be able to pass CA smog?

07 TT that sat a lot

I found an 07 TT at a Porsche dealer with 35K miles, but in the past 3 years it had only 600 miles put on it. Is this going to cause any major issues?

What kind of tests should I ask the dealer to...

Opinion on this '78 930

Considering the mileage (54K mi), and the amount they are charging for other cars, $40K seems to be a low price.

Does anyone...

Can a '85 drive like a new car?

I've just started semi-seriously for a 3.2 Carrera or 930. Sorry for the nubie questions.

How do I know if I can handle a 930?

I have never driven a 930 before. It's not easy to find one locally to have a joy ride (even in the SF Bay area).

I have a Cayman S now but that probably has taught me nothing about the 930.
