I just began my search for an 85" to 88" 911 Carrera. I am new to 911's. but always liked them, and drove a few that some of my friends had.

Few things i am looking for:

1.) I am looking for advice on what to look out for when purchasing a 911 between these years
2.) What a fair price would be for a coupe with under 80K miles.
3.) Do the 911's in these model years have distinctive mechanical problems that have been widely reported or specific things i should know abot these model years?
4.) Any good sources of where i might be able to find them besides ebay and autotrader?

Your help is appreciated.

Thanks.
