Cayman S vs C63 AMG
#31
I do not think there are any mechanical differences at all between 06-09, anyone else? No the 07 is not to old. Do your homework, you should be able to absolutely rip the Porsche. I don't know what the exchange rate is, but I would think you could buy that car here in the states for mid 40's USD from a dealer.

i was offered by my friend at the dealer, my old service manager, a 2007 cayman s, well optioned navigation and all, blaack on black, with 7000km and extended, full warrantee-he said same as if the car were brand new...for 59k cad...?
what do you think
i have to see the full options list. but atleast 10k in options, i assume

I don't know what the market is like in Canada, but I would think that car could be had for at least 3-4K less here right now. The auto market is TERRIBLE!
I would say 51-53 canadian tops. Go make an offer of 51 and let them sweat it out for a day or two, if you really like it, you know 52-53 at the highest. If you were in the US, they would be fools not to take it.

thats what i thought....high.
you d be surprised though, cause none of the dealers are budging much.
infiniti offered 2k off sticker.
bmw m3 with dct, he wanted 73 i offered 65k, 2 weeks ago, no call back no nothing
mercedes for the c63 said 2 k off...i have 4 benzes from them....pretty sad deal
porsche last week on a demo cayman s 08 went from 80 to 73 k. i said sixties he said a flat no...
so now i am confused, my friend says its a good price, but i dont know, i trust him though-hes not a greasy salesman.
plus i got winter tires to pay ontop.
you d be surprised though, cause none of the dealers are budging much.

59k cad is eqaul today to about 50k usd. it includes a 3k extended warrantee...im not trying to justify the price, just trying to give you some background info, so maybe you can offer more insight.
thanks a lot for all your help thus far.

Porsche does have a lot of margin, in the states I think it is 11% + depending on options. Certified warranty costs $1800 from a Porsche dealer last time I heard. They are notorious for their low buy bids so figure they probable have a lot of room on the used car, probably a lot more than you think.

well, on the m3 which was a demo with mdct, he went from 87 to 70...
anyways, back to the car of interest, i went to see it today, absolutely glorious....by far the greatest looking cayman s i have ever seen, beat the pd1 for me,
it had full leather interior, black on black, turbo rims, upgraded exhaust, steering wheel, and navi...etc.
the rims make that car...plus the exhaust, i have no idea what it was, but it was nuts.
only problem...is its a bit too flashy....really flashy- i have seen caymans before but none of them popped like this one...but i guess thats a good thing and a bad thing, matter of taste.
thanks again.,

sorry about no pictures...i think im gonna get it...the guy said full leather with sports seats...but how can i tell by looking at the car if its full leather?>
to be honest, it is the best looking cayman i have seen to date...turbo rims on that car, paired with the exhaust (i dunno what it is, aftermarket by someone, adds 11hp the rep said) sounds and looks nuts...not modded but hardcore porsche...i love it.
if i get it, pictures will definitely be posted...
thanks for all the hlp
anybody know, this car has pcm with nav, but since its dvd based and the car is not from quebec, do i just buy the quebec dvd and it will work fine?>
also, if it comes with pcm plus nav, does that mean that it automatically has bluetooth?>
im asking cause i have only seen the car in person for 10 mins, and not the option list...

an aftermarket exhaust on avg gain ~15 rwhp. this car responds VERY well to mods.
sounds like a great car...everytime i get in mine it puts a smile on my face and i enjoy every second of it. get the car, youll regret it if you dont.

thanks for all your help,
i remember it had stitching on the hand brake...
you think the exhaust will make the car noticeable quicker...just curious.
anyways, thanks again, will keep you posted...
curious do u drive yours in the winter?>

Easiest way to tell if it has full leather is to look at the center console, if there is stitching on the material on the sides of the center stack its likely a full leather car. Its easy to tell on the dash of a 911 but I have never actually seen a full leather Cayman only pictures.
You know what, get the vin # and call a Porsche dealer or post it here and someone can run the vin and give you ALL OF THE OPTIONS. I did this and was shocked at all the crap on mine. This is really a must before you buy the car and in my case erased any doubts I had about buying the car. The dealer I bought it from had no idea and when I told them after I bought it I could tell they were annoyed they didn't know it had a big sticker.

This one is loaded up. Full leather, navi, sports chrono, Bose, Sport seats, sport steering wheel.
