How to Buy a Used Porsche 911

Buying a used car is always a risk, but when the used car is a Porsche 911, the cost, and consequently the risk, is that much higher. However, many owners of Porsche 911s are enthusiasts and take good care of their cars. Do your research thoroughly and minimize this risk to purchase a 911 with almost all the functionality of a new model at a fraction of the price.

Instructions

    1

    Calculate how much you are prepared to spend on a Porsche 911 and decide which model you want. Depending on the make and model, prices range from $15,000 to $100,000 for a used Porsche 911.

    2

    Research the make and model you have chosen. Visit online sites that provide information about classic Porsche 911 models. Visit a Porsche dealer and speak to them about the model you want to buy. Find out about any issues with that particular model. Visit classic car shows and speak to people who have owned a Porsche 911; the more information you obtain before making a purchase decision, the better.

    3

    Look in the back of auto and classic car magazines. Look for advertisements for classic cars, such as Porsche 911. Compare prices and contact the sellers if the Porsche 911 looks in good condition.

    4

    Obtain a mechanic's review of the Porsche you intend to purchase. It is worth spending money now before you commit to any purchase. Key things to look for on a Porsche 911 are the clutch's condition, and the mileage. Take note if the mileage is very low for the age of the car. Some people keep classic cars, such as a Porsche 911 locked up in a garage, year after year -- this can cause problems in its own right.

    5

    Do not rush into a decision. Take time looking at different models and makes of Porsche 911s. If you are an enthusiast, this should not be a chore. When you find the right model at a good price, purchase it.
