987 Cayman Black

[RJH777]

Hi chaps,

Looking at next car and torn between Cayman and F Type.

Seen this, seems like a crazy good price for the mileage and the fact it's one of the limited ed Black's (so will presumably hold it's value better).

Seems to have most of the extras you'd want - am I missing something obvious that you guys as the experts can see?

[Andyoz]

Yeah, it's a an auto!

Only joking but spend another £5k and your into R territory.

If you want PDK then that is a very nice car.

lovely car

Ah good it is just a good find then!

What's the issue with PDK, thought that was the preferred option (or is that for the Boxster and Manual for Cayman)?

Nothing wrong with it I don't think, some like manuals some like PDK

Nice car.

If you like an Auto, you'll be fine with the PDK. It has Sports & Sports + which sharpens everything up considerably.

Need to check out the service history etc, if it does seems an ok price. PASM & PSE good options.

Like everything at the moment though..asking price is just a starting point...

Depends on your intended use, if daily and town driving mostly then PDK probably, if it's a weekend toy and you want full interaction with the car then probably manual, no right or wrong answers despite what others will tell you, but only you can know.

I seem in a rare camp of liking both manual and pdk in 987. Drove a comfort spec pdk in a cayman R and really liked it (had chrono but no sports exhaust)

Too close to a Cayman R price. But it is PDK, so offer them £25K and you'll probably meet half way at £27K which is about right.
