Good to know. Would be a manual Cayman anyway. Do they suffer potential IMS issues do you know?It is long gone now but if you can put up with the ugly frog styling then it is a great car. Mine was a first gen 3.4 with a tiptronic gearbox which was rubbish to use as it is controlled by buttons on the wheel so was almost always driven as an auto. The PDKs are much better but they won't meet the budget. Servicing is 20'000 miles and reasonably priced and there are no big drawbacks if you don't need more than 2 seats. There are plenty around with a wide range of colour combinations and specs so it can be fun finding the right one. I kept it for almost a year which is a while for me, or at least was at the time, then shopped it in for a Ferrari 360.
How do you find the 360? What did you get?
I had a crazy idea to sell most of what I have and get something really special. A 360 was certainly possible. However I am not very showey offy and prefer to keep it not so flashy. I shouldn't worry really but it just doesn't suit me. I wouldn't feel comfortable with it I'm sure.
