What engines are in the airplane you are looking at? If they are TSIO-360s the rate of climb figures you provided are ridiculously high. At gross weight (2 people, bags and full fuel is close to gross in this airplane) your rate of climb will be on the order of 1200 fpm on a good day, or less. Your single engine rate of climb will be a bit less or a bit more than 300 fpm depending on which engine fails, on a good day. If you have the larger engines, you are looking at a nearly one of kind aircraft (I think there are two of them), and I can't say what the performance will be.

I would ask the someone what they think has been done to the aircraft to get over twice book performance.

How slow are you going to fly?
