Common sense says don't buy a 25-year-old sports car. Oh, shut up, common sense. If it's a Porsche 911 Carrera built between 1984 and 1989, it's a reasonable purchase for a weekend driver, and Loot is going to prove it to you.

Too bad they used a picture of two 964s and not the Carrera 3.2s that the article is actually about

Other than that the numbers in there seem a bit bonkers. $5K/year for maintenance? Dunno.

Yep 964's.
Numbers are totally off.

'89 Carrera 4s are '89 911s (just like 2013 "911s" are 911s).

You're right, but the first Carrera 4's were a late '89 model (say "1989.5") and are not part of the the '84-'89 "Carrera 3.2" generation under discussion in the article.
