05 997 c2 dependability?

I figured Id ask the experts!!

What are your comments on the 05 997 c2 dependability?

Im looking to buy a used one, havent found one yet but am on the hunt. Hoping to get a CPO one so I get an additional 2 years of warranty, but should I not get a CPO, was curious to know what your thoughts were.

Also, is it possible to buy the extended warranty if its not a CPO? Cost?

Thanks!!

Why would the 996 guys be experts in 997s?

Pretty simple, do a ppi and check it's history and you should be ok. Get a CPO it's worth it.

my mistake, i meant to post this on the 997 board.

but in either case, im in between a 2005 c2 or a 2003 911 turbo.

so since ive started here, might as well ask....hows the dependability of a 996 since itll be out of warranty, thnx! n sorry for the confusion on the post!
