Hello Rennlist! New Porsche enthusiast here, looking to get into my first actually. I've been shopping all over the internet to find the right car, and I got a video from a potential seller. He insists everything is stock, and there are no issues. To me though, the exhaust either sounds aftermarket or there is some kind of misfire happening. I know it's hard to judge based off of this small snippet, but what do all of you experienced owners think? The engine can be heard starting up at 0:47 and then a quick rev at 1:25. You Tube

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Definitely not a stock exhaust....hard to tell but I did not hear a misfire

Yeah I definitely figured it sounded aftermarket. It also sounded kind of rough so I wasn't sure. Going to have a PPI done, hopefully the technician knows what he's looking for.
Sounds fine to me. Heinholz delete may be all that's done. That's obvious to see. Kind of hard to tell if non-stock exhaust...maybe.
Yeah, sounded like the car stumbled when revved.
