What to check on this generation

These are the points brand specialists agree on for the generation. They are not observations about any particular car below — only an inspection can tell you that. MODEL KNOWLEDGE

Secondary air injection (1996 model year on, OBD-II): the passages in the heads clog. The check-engine light comes on cold. Cleaning is a heavy job.
Valve guide wear on early cars: diagnosed by compression test and cold-start smoke.
Corrosion is rare but not absent: check sills and floors on cars used through winters.
Paint originality: this model carries a clear market premium for unrepainted cars. A paint-depth reading is a ten-minute investment.
The wide-body Carrera S and 4S sell well above the Carrera 2 — confirm the bodywork is factory and not a kit.

The rest is inside.
