Unless you are looking for a specific car that was not available in NA, you are much better off to get a car from CA, even at a perceived premium. Anything run in Britain will be a mess in terms of rust and grime. Italy a little less, but the more affluent areas in the North are also pretty bad.
Last time I was reminded of this was when I did my 993 struts and read these instructions. Look at all the crap / rust / grime on this car.
