Good Points
Most practical daily driving sports car money can buy. Efficient on gas, and has a surprising amount of hatch space. The rear seats fold down to create a huge boot. :) . Solid car, no shakes/rattles, nothing loose. You are buying a $18-50K car for $3-15K. What more could you ask for. The deal of the century.

Bad Points
Labor and parts. In that order. If you can work on your own cars, a Porsche is not going to cost you much more then the average Japanese car to work on. This is a very reliable car, things don't often break, though when they do rest assured it will cost you dearly. Best for a summer car. Certainly not an only car.

General Comments
Beautiful vehicle, flawless mechanics. All at a reasonable price. Advice: It is very much worth spending extra money for a car with lower miles/better maintained. If I could, I would find a California car collector selling a car with 20,000 miles or less for half of the original cost of the car. This would save you the most money in the long run.
