I disagree that 951's are hard to find in reasonably good shape. I was looking at buying one last year, but sadly, that college tuition thing reared its ugly head. You can find one in great condition for about 12k. This is definitely on the high end of the spectrum for them, but worth it if it comes with a complete service history. Make sure the timing belt has been changed regularly, the clutch is still good (if it is an earlier model, make sure the clutch has been replaced), and ALWAYS take it for a PCI (porsche certified inspection) prior to purchase.

The 968 had many similar problems to the 944 and 928, make sure there is a good service history. Convertibles are great fun, but if you go with a Porsche, I would personally keep a hard top. Don't want to ruin the superb handling.
