The 996 is an amazing value in today's market, there's no question about that. It's what I started out looking for when I decided it was time for a Porsche. Unfortunately, looking at a 996 and 997 side by side, I realized that the 996 is not aging well, IMO. I don't think it's going to be the forgotten era like the die-hards might say, but for me, I'd have to spend the extra money for a 997.... which actually, the gap has closed up quickly since the 991 came out. Still, whatever I end up with is going to be a weekend cruiser and I've decided that I don't really need the comforts of a newer car for that purpose.... I'm shopping for a '78-89 car.
Anyway, the 996 is definitely to be considered, you just need to define exactly what the purpose for your purchase will be.
