Not trying to be discouraging but the answer is that you still need to SEARCH the forum and search those topics. There is no better way to get your answer than to do your research. If you're determined to get one, then get one. The C4S is an awesome looking car but it still has the flaws identified as do the Boxster, Boxster S, Cayman and S, 996 and 997 (except 996 turbo and GT3 which use a different case and oiling system). The 02 and later 996 uses an oiling system with a bit more capability than the 99-01's as well as an increase in engine displacement from 3.4 to 3.6.
If you want piece of mind, buy a CPO (certified pre-owned) car from a Porsche dealer and get an extended warranty or buy one with warranty intact and extend it.
