At that mileage around $20K is probably on the mark. Interior parts are pretty expensive compared to other parts on the 996, so if the interior is trashed (as many of the cabrios I have seen are) then keep that in mind.
To me a "sorted car" would have the following at that mileage:
-Newer coolant hoses throughout
-Recent coolant flush
-Thermostat replaced
-Spark plugs and coil packs replaced
-Coolant tank replaced
-AOS replaced recently
-Good brakes and rotors
-New(er) engine mounts - These only last about 2 years then start sagging
-All fluids up to date
-IMS done, RMS done, clutch new(er)
There is probably more I am forgetting. At that mileage leakdown and compression tests are probably a good idea as well. An engine rebuild on one of these tops $15K and up to $25K if you do a nice job.
