Cayman S Black Edition
 
I've been looking for a Cayman S black edition. Want to get out of my Gen I C.S. and get into the black edition or a Cayman R. Anyone seen something like this. Here are my must haves...

Manual Transmission
Sport Chrono Pkg
Navigation
Full Leather
BOSE
Adaptive Sport or Sport Seats
Manual Transmission
Xenon Headlights
Okay with pretty much any color....Black...White...Silver....Aqua Blue...Guards Red...

hilarious Black Edition only in black????? Nooooooooo. In all fairness, I think he meant the different colors for R.



As an aside, I LOVE aqua blue on Boxsters and Caymans (especially Spyder & R).

My apologies was not trying to be a Smart A55 .. I love the BE .. I've racked up almost 3400 miles in 10 months and could not be happier. I previously had a '09 CTTS as well as a '07 997.1 Turbo ... my only regret is not getting Adaptive Seats .. I had them in my 997.1 Turbo and did not think it was a big deal, but I miss the adjustability .. I do have the sports seat. My DD is a '12 S4 6mt .. I enjoy both, but they could not be any different.

No worries (at least to me)... I actually thought the same thing about the original post. And I thought your post was hilarious. :D

You're not driving it enough

Here, for those who think that I wasn't being quite transparent enough on my description of what I'm looking for.

2012 Cayman S Black Edition
*of course* it will be black
Musts:
Full Leather
Sport Chrono Pkg
Navi (standard I think)
PASM (big must)
6 Speed Manual Transmission (MUST)
Adaptive Sport Seats (preferred)


Cayman R
Colors: Black | White | Silver | Aqua Blue
Interior color: Black
Full Leather
6 speed manual
Sport Chrono Pkg
Sports exhaust is a plus

If anyone knows one that is for sale, I'm trolling everywhere looking for one. Would be greatly appreciated.

I'll keep an eye out for you. :)

Ohhhh...... Porsche of Main Line (PA) used to have a beautiful black R (new). The only thing I'm unsure of is full leather interior, but might be worth checking out their website or giving 'em a call...

Disclaimer: no relations (but I take my car there for service).

the_vetman Jul 26, 2012 11:53 AM

You're in luck!!!

http://main-line.porschedealer.com/n...90757/info.php

I think it's got everything you want, though the seats are manual sport seats (but I didn't see power seats under your R must-haves). Maybe you can do a dealer trade? ;) Good luck!

StockKiller Jul 26, 2012 01:12 PM

there you go.. its sitting right there at the main line...
price 82.. with some room to wiggle im sure...
buy it... buy it now... do it.. just do it...

the_vetman Jul 27, 2012 06:33 PM

So..... any update? Bought? Not interested? Negotiating?

I happened to be at the dealer for another matter today (service) and checked out the aforementioned R. I can tell you that it's in great shape and is a thing of true beauty. Sat in it and the full leather is awesome! Never really been into full leather but I can now see why people love 'em.

Turbo II wheels look sick, though they're not as light as Spyder/R wheels (if you care about such). If I wasn't in the process of buying a Spyder I would be very tempted... the only reason I didn't buy it in the past was due to the seats (CF buckets were a must). Well... and the fact that I wanted a Spyder. :D

StockKiller Jul 27, 2012 07:51 PM

I looked at again... i like it... seems optioned up enough...
if this is what i was looking for.. id be flying into philly and driving it back...
im from the area.. grew up near main line.. great place to live...never a dull moment...
got to figure.. they want it off the lot.. im sure they want a buyer.. a dedicated buyer whose gonna treat that car right... that car's a keeper imo...better hurry before i get drunk and put it on my wife's visa card.. lol

StockKiller Jul 27, 2012 07:54 PM

vet .. i just reread your post..
i went to malvern prep.. for a few years..
congrats on the spyder... thats a keeper... drove it a p driving expereince...
thats the porsche to own in the right environment...

the_vetman Jul 27, 2012 08:59 PM

Well... no freakin' way... that's a surprise! Both that you're a former local and that you're still pretty young! (not being patronizing) Based on what you posted before I thought you were much older... e.g. "will I still be alive?" RE: GT3.

I used to frequent the main line. I grew up in NE Philly (now pretty much a ghetto). Have moved around quite a bit recently though just within PA. Allentown/Whitehall, Wilkes-Barre (brrrr), Springfield (DE county, not Montgomery), Pittsburgh, Upper Darby (G-fab nowadays...), and now Pottstown.

It def. piqued my interest that you used to ride a gixxer on the track... I really don't ride my bike anymore but should... BTW I downsized after the last high side accident...

Between your toys and age, I guess you're doing pretty well for yourself! BTW, what do you do for a living? (I'm being nosey)

Cheers, and best wishes with your new R (turbo'd)!!!
