Also had one of those. Fast cars, handle great. Not super pretty inside and out, the interior has aged a lot IMO... Once you fix the IMS and the peeling dash controls, you may start getting into 15y old car problems, which will nickel and dime you to death... maybe, maybe not... IMO buy very new or buy classic, in between is a bigger risk... How about a 2y old GTI then? ;-) OK, no VW... Since you don't commute, I still like the idea of a classic... They can also be finicky but at least value goes up every year, and you can fix a lot yourself! Buy a nice Tii ;-) I'm convinced those 02s are going to go the way of early 911s, so much fun to drive and harder to find....
Autoweek just put out a good video on the 996
