I don’t have a Porsche, but I’m eyeing a Cayman GTS and hoping to get one soon.
Figured I’d create this community so that others can join and post. :)
Thanks for making the community!
How’s the hunt going for the cayman GTS?
Thanks for commenting!
Annoying, to be honest. I want a 981 Cayman GTS with PTV, specifically in yellow/blue. Silver and white will do as well. They’re SO rare. 2 went these past two weeks on BAT, both without PTV. Cars.com has one single car listed lol.
Haha, yea they can be tricky to find. Patients is a strong quality to have when hunting for the right car. It’s not easy, I jumped early when picking up my 911.
Sometimes the hunt can be just as fun as buying it.
Which 911 did you get? Also BAT?
I just got a 996.2 manual. Believe it or not, I found it on craigslists. Passed PPI with flying colors, 20 years of service records, and had all of the features I was looking for.
Annoyingly it’s had to have some  maintenance since I bought it that couldn’t be caught in a PPI. A coolant hose burst and just had all six coil packs and plugs replaced as at least one burnt out.
PPI doesn’t catch everything but can give you a good piece of mind. Have some money set aside for repairs, it can be in good shape but time will damage things like rubber hoses.
Wow, craigslist? I’m going to have to look.
That’s not too bad though. Doesn’t seem so at least. Were you able to purchase an extended warranty on it for the PDK? That’s what I’m worried about.
No warranty, it’s a 20 year old car. It’s a manual but the clutch and gearbox felt good and strong. It had service records for a replaced clutch a few years ago as well.
I meant a 3rd party warranty. That’s my concern, especially in covering for the PDK.
