The issue is that the engines may leak or grenade. Not highly likely but those are both catastrophic failures - i.e. your $15k 996 will then be worth $5k. Nobody wants to take that risk. The older cars do not blow up. They wear out slowly and predictably.

I would only buy a newer Porsche with the old case / bottom end (turbo, GT3).
