^^^This!
I'm no expert on the different varieties of the 996 but when I dream surf autotrader for (cheap) Porsche's they come up in the $15K range all day long (private seller)
I know you are a Porsche guy and this is a Porsche board but...
Have they looked at the new Cadillac? If they are GM folks (like my folks) that might fit the bill.
