So took a risk today and bought a 996.

Did not due a PPI. (May or may not regret this decision). But the car was priced right had a reasonable amount of service history, and was in very good overall shape with all components working as built.

The option code sticker shows a decent level of options, such as LSD, traction control, PCM. (with very out of date navigation) 8 way leather drivers and passengers seats, sport brake pads and wind screen. The car is navy blue over tan leather, which was a prefered color combo for me. The car is a 6 speed manual. The clutch was replaced 3,000 miles ago. no oil leaks, and dry underneath. Immediately after buying the car I drove it home (about 250 miles) in 100 degree heat, and it was a joy to drive, with all gauges showing normal operation.

Question is what to do next. As there is no indication that the IMS bearing has ever been changed - do I immediately have this done, as well as the AOS? My plan was to replace worn rubber components, inspect and replace all consumables (brake pads if needed). Change the oil and cut open the old filter and inspect for debris, the cooling system was flushed, radiators cleaned and new coolant installed in January, 2016.

AC system leaked checked (held vacuum for 30 minutes) and recharged in June of this year.

Any suggestions. (Pics after I get my phone charged.)

Thanks for your input
