Congrats. of things listed... PSM is the only standard feature. Heated sport seats, Bose and Xenon are add-on options. Clear side marker is aftermarket.

Thanks!! Is there a relatively easy way to find out what options or packages this car might have?

I believe dealers can do a print out of what's on the window sticker if you give them the vin. I don't know if every dealer will do this, but remember seeing it on sun coast Porsche's website. I know this one guy at Bert Smith Porsche can do this if you email him your vin. I don't have his email tho... but if I find it, I'll pm you.

Wow, great deal... looks gorgeous with super low miles and a great price. Very jealous. If you send me the VIN#, I should be able to get you a dealer list of what is listed on the car as options and what was standard if that helps.

I'm in love with the Cayman S. Currently in a 335i and interested in the Cayman. Not ready to pull any trigger yet but doing my research.

May I ask how much you were able to negotiate from the asking price? What engine is in the 2006, is it a 3.4 or a 3.6 (my numbers could be wrong...) ? How is the exhaust note? Would you consider working on your own porsche if it was off warranty? Are you going to make any mods to your Cayman?

Pardon for all my questions. I'm excited for you...

Congratulations on your Cayman S. It's a great car. I bought a 2006 Cayman S a couple of years ago with 8400 miles for 37k. Guards Red with black interior. 6 speed manual. Navigation and upgraded stereo, heated seats, sports chrono. I loved it, but fell in love with the 981. I sold the Cayman 2 months ago with 16,000 mi for 33K. My new 981 is at a stateside port waiting for a 6/30 delivery. The Cayman is a real blast do drive. You will not be disappointed.

LOL! Look under the front hood and there should be a square white sticker with all the packages/option codes ordered. Then look up the codes online.

This is also a good way to know if the car is original (whether that sticker is present or not).
