Looking for a DE Cayman
 
My husband Jim and I are looking for another Cayman S 987.2 or 981 DE car w/PDK and sports chrono -- ideally w/ standard track mods of roll bar, seats, 6-point harness, third radiator, suspension....

Nice.. the slope got slipperier! I would consider a 987.2 if only then the advantage of parts compatibility, especially consumables like wheels, tires, brake pads. Not sure how different a 981 is in these items.

But seriously... https://dorkiphus.net/porsche/showthread.php?t=39438 .. lets go!

The good news is that the 987.2 w/ PDK should have the third radiator from the factory.

Wow, that GT3 is beautiful. I LOVE that color. We are on a list for a GT4 but thinking an already track modified Cayman S would make more financial sense!

Ed, our Cayman didn't come with a third radiator -- we had to add one. . . .

That's a good one right there... she said "financial sense" :D This is where everyone else chimes in with:1) Spec Miata 2) 944 3) Spec Racer Fords or 4) 996 Cup car

With that said, I wish you good luck on your search. To me, the search is always the fun part.

YOU are just like Jim then. :) Of COURSE NONE of what we do makes financial sense. :bang:

Based on talking with Jim, pdk is not a must have for him which could expand your options for finding a car.
Look on PCA Mart. I think I saw a couple of gen 2 track prepared Cayman, but they are manuals.
Good luck.

Thanks Nader. PDK is a must. Jim is willing to buy a manual, but I am not. Thanks for the tip on PCA Mart -- never heard of it!

His and hers?

BMAN 01-29-2019 11:48 AM

Considering her PDK reply and the fact that they have a pdk already, it would seem she's looking for hers and hers.

I am fresh out of Caymans (except for hers), sorry!
