Shaun, as a semi Porsche expert.(cause I have been trying to get one for years,I subscribe to Excelence,follow all Porsche articles, own Hundreds of Porsche collectable models and diecasts,my wife says I can have one IF I get a job, and I am also known around the net as 935mike) let me say GET THE NEWEST 911 YOU CAN AFFORD. A 1986 or newer, 87 even better due to better trans, have it checked out by a mechanic who knows Porsches as repairs can cost THOUSANDS, as parts and labor are $$$$$. I have driven a few and love them but be carefull there are lots of mismosh cars with various year parts,GREY MARKET cars for which parts are scarce or shops won't work on them. Read Excelence mag they speak to this topic frequently. Hope this helps a little, and sorry about the stream of unconciousness.
