Lots of opinions. Well, the car has 29K on it and as far as I can see, the major mechanicals are all original (clutch, transmission, no rebuilds). YES, I have driven 911 before and been out on a track with them too. This car is not as refined as the last one I drove (993 C4).

There seems to be quite a bit of noise comming out of the back end. Some clanking and a few high-pitched whistles too. The brakes are not that "sticky" either. All I did was drive it up and down the street by the shop (yes, they work on all foreign cars and do 911 all the time) and took it on the freeway to about 80. Clearly the car is made for that kind of driving. The shop heard the clanking too. Not sure if this is just normal sounds for an air cooled motor. They are checking it out tomorrow.

Impression: this car could be fun, but it is less than I expected. Waiting for shop to call tomorrow with more details. Any other thoughts?
