Comment seems a bit unnecessary.

Indeed....it's a number plate, correct spacing and no silly additions or bolts?

What's cheap about it? Or were you just being obtuse because it's David?

Who's David?

It's a forum, you get different POV.

That's fair enough but what looks cheap about a number plate, or even that number plate?

He won't like my German Rocket much then lol

Looks good OP but too many RS 3.7 badges for my liking. The blue makes a nice contrast and different too. As long as you li,e it, who cares what others say

Still in love with my standard spec 987.2, it’s the Carrera II wheels, basalt black and contrasting red leather that do it for me

Spyder for me.

I think you might end up keeping a pimped up, crash damaged 2006 gen 1 Cayman at £30k....

That's probably worth about £15k tops.

Agree not even a 3.7, now if it was a 2010 onwards Gen2 with the better engine you might be lucky at £25k.

I also agree it's a gen 1 car with >75k miles on it which went into a barrier, £15k if you are lucky sadly.

As with all modded cars only way to get some money back is put all the oem bits back on and sell the parts at a 50% loss.
if you cannot make it a oem car it's pretty worthless and is just a 80k miles gen 1 Cayman which will be hard to insure.

Couldn't you get F6DGN?
Might be worth investing in T6DGN for the 992GT3 which will probably be a turbo...

Obviously each to their own but have to say that for me it looks best in the final picture with the black wheels.

Images before the stickers fitted for reference as these can very easily be removed.





And prior to the makeover.

It definitely looks best with the black wheels prior to makeover. Otherwise far too pumped for my liking.

[g7jhp]

I think a subtle contrast colour scheme would work better against grey. Perhaps Weiss Gold wheels similar to a 997.2 GT3 effect.

Spyder on a budget anyone........ :-)

All of this precisely. Drawing attention to your car by highlighting all the things that will put most prospective Porsche buyers off is not a good idea. The car is over-priced and will attract high teens at the most. The vast majority of Porsche buyers want standard cars. If yours is not standard then you need those modifications to benefit your buyer. At the moment that’s not really the case.
