I have been shopping for my first Porsche for the last year or so and I am discovering that many of the 1999-2001 year Carrera''s are priced a lot lower (used) then other of the same year. Is there something wrong with those specific years of is this just a trend?

Mark1,
I recently (1 1/2 years ago) sold my 86 Porsche 944 Turbo. I am also searching for my first
911. My favorite models are from (1995-1998) these cars have the traditional wider rear bodies, but less horsepower than the model years you seek. I am drawn to the air-cooled
models which have a phenomenal reliability record, and are fetching higher prices, (i assume
due the lower and wider profile) of the vehicles.
I want either the Carerra 4s or the standard S model, but have been unable to locate one that
is within the range I want to pay. Prices tend to be lower on the east coast, than the west.
Which creates a dilemma for me living in Las Vegas. Speaking with techs and owners, I am always told to buy the newest model I can afford, which I don''t necessarily agree with. I think
you''ll find that a tremendous selection in your model range, when it became fashionable to own a Porsche, (more tip-autos produced) than ever before.

Last year I bought an ''01 C4 Cab which was certified by the dealer. It had only 15000 miles on it so I paid a premium price but I got piece of mind. I wanted a modern car so I ruled out an air-cooled and most dealers won''t certify them anyway because of their age. I couldn''t afford a newer car. The reason that those years are not as sought after is because of the reputation of rear main seals leaking and the fact that they resemble the cheaper Boxster from the front view. Mine does not leak (yet anyway). I love driving it and if that''s is what you can afford, there is nothing wrong with them.
