I think they made too many 996s. I can tell you for sure that I wouldn't want to own a 10 year old 996 cause as these cars age the complex electricals are going to be hell to work on. The best thing about Carreras, SCs, middies and early P-cars is that they are simple cars and guys can work on them without a computer scanner. 996 parts don't get fixed-- they get replaced which gets really really expensive.

Good point. I honestly didn't even think of the electronics. But heck, all I would do if I bought one is lighten it up and drop a 3.2 or 3.6 in it.
