My personal opinion - and don't get me wrong: Almost every 911 with CIS for sale is light years away from running perfectly. If it does, the owner either won't sell or he suddenly died or the price has shot up so much that even a Carrera or a 964 becomes affordable... besides - every 911 with CIS will require more or less work. The effort, the pain and the money will not be invested by any seller or dealer, only the next owner... not to mention the lack of knowledge about the CIS.

I would assume that the car does not have just one problem, as most CIS cars do due to lack of maintenance and lack of knowledge about the CIS system. The big advantage and at the same time disadvantage is - you can "tune" the CIS to any state in which it either starts or somehow runs, but as I said, far from running perfectly in all conditions.

What a CIS absolutely cannot tolerate is long periods of standing. So under these circumstances the car is only affordable for someone who can tinker with it himself.

If the price is good enough and you still have the money to fix all the problems over time, go for it! Getting a low-mileage, fully documented, good-condition 911 SC is becoming increasingly difficult. On the other hand, if you have to have everything done in a garage - stay away!
