It's a 2007 Cayman S six speed. It was a great deal for the mileage. I test drove it months ago when it was at normal value - I noticed it had gone down by 2 grand 2 weeks ago, and another three thousand last Thursday. I'll get it cleaned up and post some proper pictures once it stops raining.

Congrats on the purchase, looking forward to your pics. Be sure to nab some of the interior as well. I still haven't taken pics of my C6 for you guys :\

I don't care what they say about it being the "poor man's Porsche." I think the Cayman is a fantastic looking car, and I hope to get into one soon. Congrats on the purchase.

The weather was amazing today. I ended up taking it out to snap some pictures before washing it. I suck with cameras and don't claim to have any skill in location, orientation, composition, backdrop, focus, or anything else having to do with photography. In fact, I'd say I'm absolutely horrible and probably shouldn't ever hold a camera again. None of the silly rear end lens flare was intentional.  Click here for the full 2048x1056 image.

Click here for the full 2048x1790 image. The car has since been washed and waxed, and the dealer license plate frames have been removed.

Eat Fresh posted:my dream Live the dream, amigo, because your car is absolutely perfect. Your means matches your taste and that is a rare thing indeed. In my opinion, you have The Best Car. Mine is depressingly responsible in comparison:  ... but it's got a Boxer motor, so it's basically the same thing as your Cayman.

As decent as the Cayman is, I definitely appreciate the bimmer more. A Cayman you can buy any time. That bimmer actually requires care, hard work and patience. Good on you man.

I've riden and driven several of them, granted they were all the S series, but they handle awesome, brake on a dime and are a lot of fun through turns. You can also find used ones for pretty good prices. My uncle just picked up a flawless 99 Boxter S with a custom graphite paint job with 37k on the odometer for 11k.

My dad has always owned a Porsche since the early 70's. He's had a 914, 924, 968, a 993 C4, a 996 C4S, and in 2003, he decided he needed a more practical daily driver along with a toy, so he picked up a 330 and a Boxster. While the 330 has been replaced, he plans on keeping the Boxster until his death. Even though it lacks the power of the 911, he has never had such a perfect handling car. Besides, if it wasn't such a forgiving chassis, I'd be dead by now. Anyways, a pic:

Just bout a 2004 Nissan Murano last week Monday. 2 days ago my mom turned into it while backing out of the driveway. Small scratches and some paint transfer but oh my god was I pretty pissed off.

I don't understand the Mercedes (CL 600?) wheels. I mean why go out of your way to have another manufacturer's wheels on your car? Then again you VW people always confuse me so much

Well VW is the poor man's Audi which is the upper middle class man's Skoda which are sold in Europe. Europe is the rich man's North America (where Chryslers come from), and there used to be a business partnership between them and Daimler-Benz, making Chrysler the working-two-jobs single parent's Bentley. Bentley, of course, being the creepy uncle's hedge fund manager's Cadillac, a company known for putting lots of shiny bits on their cars (moving them up a snack bracket or two, depending on inflation and the price of prescription medication in that particular year). So, it makes perfect sense those wheels should go on that car. (PS: Watch out for curbs, and is that a diesel?)
