    Used low milage 997 or Cayman

    http://www.rennteam.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=172667&an=0&page=0#172667

    A 997 with 4 or 5k miles with 3 years or more left on the warranty or a new Cayman with a 4 year warranty , seems like a no brainer to me am I missing something ..... Could you test drive both and still buy the Cayman ?

    If you buy a new Cayman and with a few options it cost 65K what is it worth in 6 months compared to a low milage 997 that is 65K that will have a value much higher as the previous owner took the big hit .

    In Europe you can find 997s with excellent options(-20mm/LSD, Adaptive seats, full navi, PSE,Bose, etc.) with around 7000-12000km for the price of new Cayman S with same options. Choice is yours, not mine...

    In Europe Porsches do not have the 4 year warranty that they have in USA.

    Re: Used low milage 997 or Cayman

    I do not think the Cayman is going to be a big hit .... Porsche is pushing the PR for this thing like a record company pushing a new Britney Spears record . I do not see a real demand for this car from the public just a lot of PR from porsche and the magazines and shows that Porsche gives the cars to to drive . Are there long waiting lists at the dealers ... I think not , but I could be wrong how many here are going to buy one . This forum for example was on fire with interest and orders at this stage with the 997 but I do not see any real buzz from buyers on this car .

    Ocean,

    All the interested Cayman buyers got tired of the tripe on this site from 911 lovers and went elsewhere

    there are no Cayman buyers and if there are not many , it was sad to see that little thing on the Porsche Xmas card this year instead of the 997

    Re: Used low milage 997 or Cayman

    Do you prefer gin or scotch? Red wine or white wine? Blue cars or silver cars? Saying you like one does not mean the other is a poor choice. If it was me, with my own money, I would go for a 997. I've driven both cars, own a 987S and it is purely my preference. I was personally disappointed with the Cayman, for not being more different from my own car for a lot more money, but I am not saying, nor have I ever said, that the Cayman is a bad car, or that the people buying one are making a wrong decision. So asking which is the more popular or correct choice is a totally pointless and irrelevant exercise.
