first time buyer
 

Hi everyone,
I am looking to buy my first Porsche. I have always thought the 911 are the best looking car on the road.
I am not a doctor or lawyer, therefore I have a budget. I have a ceiling of $40,000 US. I don't know if buying a 60000+ mile car is a good idea. I would like to get the best bang for the buck
I have narrowed to three models
1) 2005- 997 carrera S coupe- best looks & performance - a little out of my price range
2) 2004- 996 40th anniversary coupe- good performance - narrow body
3) 2002-2004 -996 carrera 4S - good looks, wide body- performance not so sure.

Unfortunately,I have never driven a Porsche, so I am only basing my choices on what I have read. Any input would be greatly appreciated
