seats and carpet will have to be removed. Once the carpet and underlay are soaked it would have to be replaced. OEM carpets will cost an arm and a leg.

Bargain considering the exchange rate, if I hadn't of already bought the black on this is the car I would have picked up 100%.

I like how so many people have listed their sports cars in USD that he specifically says price is in Canadian dollars.

Supposedly the targa top revision did not reduce rigidity but did increase weight due to the added aluminum to maintain said rigidity.

Targa top = 1 roof panel
T-Top = two roof panels

FYI

Used 2007 Porsche Cayman S For Sale | Burnaby BC

Not a great price, but I'm thinking of going to take a look anyway.
I think that's a good price given our dollar right now. The k's are alittle high but it has some very nice options on it. If it has a clean history and checks out I would go for it. I love my Cayman!

I actually swung by there today but only had a couple of minutes. Sales guys was nice, opened it up and took a look around. Said he'd be happy to let me drive it when I had more time. Car was straight, no overspray anywhere, interior was good except for some peeling of the soft touch around the window switches. I said it needed tires, he said they were going on this week.

I got the impression they would do a deal on it. I'd get my own ppi including scoping the cylinders for scoring.

^ Seems like a great deal if you wanted to get in to the AE86 scene. Lots of issues but lots of extra parts. In another life where I have time and space to work, I would be down for this.

And the manual Cayenne is awesome. Shame about the gold paint tho...

Friend bought a rebuilt status R class that was brand new.
Dealership forgot to close the sunroof one night and it rained all night.

I thought that was pretty funny.
