Which is the best year for the 993?

I want to do my research and due diligence and try to get as much information as I can before committing to purchase a 993. I could use some help from those who know these cars as to which is the best year model to purchase? I've had different opinions, and I appreciate all the information that I can get so that I may make an educated decision when the time comes to purchase.
Thank you in advance for your replies !

Probably a teeny tiny sample of 993 owners here in the 930 forum.

I'd try the 993 or 911 forums.

If you get one earlier than '96 you will want the upgraded alternator wire harness from a '96 or newer. It prevents one cause of engine fires.

Thanks- I didn't realize I posted in the wrong forum.
