How many owners is too many?

[W12GT]

I am considering buying a 991 Carrera for a bit of weekend fun that I can get my kids in the back of.

I have come across an early car that has had 5 owners it does have full main dealer history and comes with extended warranty.

Will this be difficult to sell on?
How many of ypiwould be put off/not bothered by this number of owners?

Cheers,

Thanks for this all of your replies! I am so tempted. It's a manual car but the first owner went for performance options over luxury including PCCB, torque vectoring, PASM, sports chrono plus and sports exhaust......

I thought that there was a honeymoon period where people spent money on a car so more owners should mean more care has been spend (unless youre trading it in in which case it counts against you).

I've often thought the same myself as most people take pride in their cars when they first get them. More so for a weekend car...

Just found out it's the car used by Evo for their write up back in 2012. Turns out it was a silverstone car. Hmmm..... I wonder why the dealer didn't mention that!

Same as I wouldn't marry a porn star. Sure, she is in good nick with nothing really wrong on the surface, but...well...no.

I wouldn't marry one either.... but wouldn't mind having a fling with one.......

It's a bit odd. I've phoned up about another approved 991 and browsing PH I've found that too was a Porsche car used as a courtesy car!

Yet again the dealer didn't mention this!
