looking at a 82

I know nothing about 928's....what're some things to look out for ?

It is a 1982 5speed with 98K.

Sorry for being so vague but, I haven't even gone to look at it yet.

Buying one you know nothing about.

Key things are:

Knowing what you want.

Knowing the true condition, usually from a PPI.

Knowing how you are going to take care of it.

Thanks for the links, thats a huge help in understanding some of the differences in the models and things to be attentive to when looking.

I would definitely get a PPI

I do all my own work.

I think after driving a few 928s you will see how nice they are especially if you can drive a few that have been sorted
