I know there are other members that have owned or do own Cayman's-
Very seriously looking at a 2 owner 2008 base , manual with 140,000 miles Have carfax history , trying to get dealer to let me get ppi - What ha been your experience with ownership maintence etc??? My experience only involves 914's and also I had a 2001S Boxster So I know what the 3.2 motor is like- this car has the 2.7 5 speed manual Thanks for advice and help in advance . Dr. Phil updated: 01/09/2017(Monday!) talked with dealer today, would allow a PPI locally - they might have a name/contact info from a local shop the sales manager that I talked to was going to try and get that for me, but if any of you are in that area or know of someone that would be great. - send me a PM or call me @ 843-812-6653 or a text would be fine as well. |

Hi,
I own a 2007 Cayman S from new. I love it. It now has 40K miles. 140K for a 2008 is a lot of miles. That having been said, if the car was well taken care of and maintained it should be ok. With 140K the price should be very low. I have a couple of friends that have the standard Cayman and they love them. They rev easily and are a lot of fun to drive. But by all means, do get a PPI done. If the price is cheap enough, you can put some money aside for a 3.4L later on. Good luck with your hunt for a Cayman. Bill. |
