Anyone have ownership experiences to share for a 911 997.1 C4S?

Very interested in these but just rethinking due to IMS bearing issues.

Would appreciate your thoughts!

The IMS bearing issues are very rare on the 997.1.

Make sure that the engine number falls after the last of the older/smaller bearing M96 engines (69507475 and earlier), and thus this engine has a more robust but also non-serviceable bearing. Further comfort for the next owner is, or may be, that during the prior ownership that a car saw regular oil/filter changes strictly done at never more than 5k miles. Finally, make sure you get a blackstone analysis as part of a PPI.

A friend of mine owned one. He loved it.
