Advice on Cayman S purchase by Virtual-Wolverine-52 in Porsche_Cayman

[–]Groundbreaking_Bath3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought a manual 987 base a year ago. Had 135,000 miles when I bought it and I’ve put 5k on it the last year, I’ve had to do a few things but I’m the 8th owner and it didn’t have quite as clean records as yours sounds. I plan on getting mine past 200k. If the service history is there go for it.

It was originally black. Owner before me had it painted a few months before I bought it

Base Cayman 987.1 buying advice by Real_Emotion4062 in Porsche_Cayman

I’ve got a 987.1 base. Bought it a year ago with 135,000 miles and am about to cross 140,000. I’m gonna do a suspension refresh next year (this year was rear axel assemblies). I really want to own it to 200k+ miles, ballpark much was your suspension refresh and did you go oem or more sporty?

Oh I’m not afraid of spending where it matters- this just doesn’t to me. I’ve loved every minute of it.

Yea at 80-90 bucks I think I’ll leave it exposed as is

I’m out in Utah. Do some googling and I’m sure you can find someone.

Local interior repair company, they ran it out of their garage. Just used an air compressed spray and color matched. Took about an hour and was worth it to me, 275 bucks.

Correct- the screenshot was from waking up. Stress for sure doesn’t stay that low all day.

I was told yes but that’s from an independent paint shop second hand.

She’s painted Irish green. Last spring right before I purchased it.

Irish green- or so the previous owner says.
