the early 986's had rear main seal issues as well as what they called "D-chunking"...which was the cylinder liners breaking apart in big "D" shaped pieces at the tops of the bores.
its a minority of the cars that suffer from it so its always good to remember that unhappy people get loud on the internets...but the problems do exist and its not cheap to fix.
the only real "safe Porsche" of that era are the Turbos or someone that did the reliability mods to the IMS/RMS on the later cars.
