v nice.......was thinking of going for the Cayman S or a 987 Boxster S myself til i thought better of spending close on £50k on a car :twisted:

 

so how loaded is it with extras????..........and did he order it himself or go for one already ordered

[Andy665 0]

Very nice but I'd still take a 993 every single time

Friend of mine was offered a Cayman by his local Porsche dealer last week, he's boughta few cars off them, apparently demand is nothing like as high as expected, cars are avialable from stock - still very desirable though

H R Owen in Hatfield had at least 5 in stock last time I went past - all up with price tags so not pre-ordered.

Thats v true. im 20 and am selling my current fiesta to get a vr6 so most my mates are jealous of me, BUT my mate is same age and owns a brand new BMW 320C :shock: lol.

At that age I preferred to own a house and a cack car, than a posh car and still live with my parents :-)

 

Good way to get on the Porsche 'ladder'. They don't depreciate much, so you can work your way up through the 911 range gradually. My mate did that, bought a brand new Boxster when it first came out, sold it 1 year later for £5K more than list price due to the demand....added some savings to that and drove out of the dealer in a 911....

 

Not feeling the Cayman..... can't get my head round the rear end, looks odd to my eyes.... 911 everytime....

[vr6storm 0]

alas kev those days are a practically a distant memory now..............there's more Boxster rivals these days too,whereas when the Boxster came out the SLK/Z3/Honda S2000/TTR etc weren't out,so they won't make more than £5k over list unless they've already got £10k+ of extras on them..............its scary too,that you literally spend close on £60k+ speccing up a new Boxster...........thats close to basic 911(997) money btw

[Stan 24v 0]

The fact that they "under" engineered the Cayman to make sure that it wouldnt out do the flagship 911 says loads to me!! The potential of that thing is awesome!
