Help With 911 Purchase

I'm sure this question comes up all the times so if I can be directed to another post, just point me in the right direction.

I've been an MB guy most of my life and I've finally convinced the boss (wife) to let go of our SLK and get a 911 cabriolet. We typically we only put ~2000 miles on the SLK each year and the Porsche will be about the same. Just a sunny weather weekend car.

I'm looking for a 2001 to 2005. It'll have somewhere between 30k and 70k miles.

What should i be looking out for? There is an excellent indie Porsche mechanic in the are that I'll use for service.

Thanks in advance for any advice/assistance.

Dan

You'll get a much better response if you try posting in the 996 forum (1999-2004) or if your budget allows, the 997 forum (2005-2012). But maybe look around there first before you ask.
