Summary

I just bought a 2005 Porsche 911 with 102,000 miles on it. And I'd do it again tomorrow. In this episode I break down exactly what to look for — and what to run from — when buying a 997.1. IMS bearings, bore scoring, Carfax red flags, and why a set of cheap tires can tell you more about a previous owner than they ever would. Whether you're actively shopping or just dreaming about it — this one's for you. Quick Apple Podcasts note. If you see “Episode Unavailable,” unfollow the show, then refollow.
