Great looking car congratulation.....
My choice of modern 997
Classics......930, 964 Turbo or 993 Turbo, the 993 is probably the more drivable of the calssics...
Those 997.1 GT3s at first looked a bit less interesting in period compared to the 996.2 GT3 with its huge wing, but I think they have aged better than any other GT3 👍
This seems to be a thing with any performance car you buy!

My 997 Carrera S has been the most reliable car I've ever owned. The only repair item needed during 15 years of ownership was a water pump replacement.
Yeah this one is a 2007 model with only 33k miles on it. So a lot of the parts are probably original and though they may not be worn, they are still old. I expected more maintenance than the Honda obviously but it is a bit disappointing to have to pull off the road in a cloud of steam on the first weekend drive
That’s exactly it, everything is old and probably hasn’t been used much, so when you start doing the new owner enjoying his car thing, stuff will break.
If it makes you feel any better, my 996 had a heater core, two suspension arms and two exhaust flexis in the first week I owned it.
26k miles in my GT3 and really should get those hoses pinned, especially as I still track it. I should really get it done
These cars look soooo much better without a front reg plate on them.
You really should, if not for everyone else on a track but because having to pull off the side of the parkway in a cloud of steam was not fun!
Couple other small issues to chase besides this too, which confirms my concerns about low-mileage cars. But this example was too nice to pass up.

Small as I can get away with here, I did have a plate with motorcycle font on but Mr Policeman objected so it had to come off approx 80% of this size. Excuse the dirty car but it’s not weather for outside work.
I actually believe they are pinned but had it checked.
