Yes!!!

My personal favorite!!! But this is a 1 time chance in a life time if it is the car i think it is ,seriously this car will be a collectors item in the future.I would inquire about what it actually is from the dealer .Where is this car ?

No, not for a long time to come. I looked at a stunning RS60 Boxster that the dealer would sell me for -10K from sticker.

I would much rather have that than a pumpkin car.

It's happened to all of us...there's always another deal, and the prices just drop in the meantime. For what it's worth, I would take the C63 in a heartbeat over the Cayman. Save for a few more months, dig out the change under the couch cushions and get a C2 911 if you're hell bent on getting a Porsche. A friend of mine just got the Cayman...he's told me he wishes he just bought a low mileage 996 with a warranty instead every time he sees a 911. Just my .02 -either one you go with will be a nice car

now if they made a cayman rs60...that would be something...
true the 911 is more desirable than a cayman s...but ive never driven a 911 and id like to keep it that way, until im three years into my first cayman or something...jk.

to me personally, the c63 styling is cheap and plastcky...inside and out, I know I am alone in this thought...the main reason why i considered it was that it was a practical whole package

I saw a black C63 on the loop a couple days ago and pointed it out to my wife, neither of us were much impressed with it aesthetically but I know its an awesome car just the same. Part of cool factor is its stealthy nature. When I had my C55 I could pull up to my clients and they just figured I leased a C230 for my wife.

agreed, unassuming, no spectacular styling, but muscular, you know it has power, but I don t love the look enough
cool factor is def there. its weird, im no bmw guy, but i prefer the m3 dct to the c63...not trying to start a new thread here, just opinion

i dont know, i cant wrap my mind around buying such an old car, 03 tt in this case, maybe cause i have never owned a porsche. but i think about it like buying a 5 yr old benz..i quite frankly wouldnt buy a 2 yr old benz.
in the case of the 03 isnt it well out of warranty.
are all turbo's automatic?
and what year would you guys look for, just sparked my curiosity.

Based on your questions so far, I don't think you should get a cayman.
