It is almost a mantra in Porschephile circles to never get a first year Porsche. Recent examples that come to mind are 1995 993s (1st year) had faulty wire harnesses that lead to car fires, 1999 996s (1st year) had oil starvation problems during high speed cornering and some engines were lost and so on.
Don't panic over 3 oil coolers, all car manufacturers find during the first year the bugs they didn't catch during the development and testing phases, it is totally normal in ANY price car and more so in low volume cars. The more important question is if they fix the problem and let us know about it so we may get it corrected on cars that have already been delivered. Just so you know, the problem on the 95 993s even though widely known and can be corrected under warranty is still an issue one should look at when bying a 1995 993 since many cars still haven't had the wire harnesses replaced, and the 1999 996 oil starvation problem was corrected in the following year but as far as I know all 1999 cars are subjected to it and there is no easy fix for it. There are a lot more examples like these for all cars.
