He might prefer the 230 as something to mod, etc. Either way get the sport model version.
Here's a good thread with loads of info on the 230 vs the 280:

If you can hold out for a good specimen of a C43, then that would be a find. One of the forum members on Rennlist (Porsche owners) just picked one up with 72k on the odo in Connecticut. Took him a while to find it. Check out the story (it's in today's 993 sub forum.)
Here's a great review of the 1999 C43 from a Porsche owner:

Would one of them be more reliable? I am guessing 280 since it is NA.
