    I've seen the Cayman at my dealer but haven't actually seen one on the road here in Los Angeles, where we have more Porsches per capita than probably any other city in the world (I'm guessing on this but it would be interesting to know as a side note). Has anybody actually seen a Cayman on the road in their town?

    I've said it before and I'll say it again, the Cayman is destined to be the next (overpriced) 968 -- only 5,000 made in four years and then discontinued.



    Haven't seen Gayman on road in SF...only in dealer showrooms...

    Doubt LA sells most new P's per capita of any region, esp if one focuses on sales of $100K+ P's.....at least in new F's, LA and SF are similar-sized mkts...but LA is 3X population of SF, so LA's a relative dwarf on per capita basis....and there aren't too many googles/yahoos/ebays, etc etc being founded in LA region, so SF will prob eclipse LA mkt in next 2-3 yrs on an absolute size basis as well....




    I don't think so. For every techie you have we have 5 actors in syndication.



    Yeah, amazing how much clowns, sorry entertainers, who can't read/count can be worth these days w/syndication&globalization....just hope those geeky financial guys don't take advantage of them...

    However, per FNA, sounds like the SF tech guys already buy as many/more new F's than the LA clowns, sorry actors/entertainers.....(and a chunk of LA's F's are bought by tech guys in NwptCoast corridor)

    Re: Used prices coming down

    My dealer told me that PCGB plan to import 1000 fewer Porsches into the UK in order to boost used car values, protect existing owners from depreciation and increase waiting lists.

    To my mind, this would only work if it wasn't possible to import cars from the rest of the EU. But since it is and because it is illegal under the Treaty of Rome for the manufacturer to prevent RHD cars being sold by dealers to UK customers, PCGB's plan will fail.

    Well, yet another reason why I plan to import my 911 from Germany....

    Oh BTW, thanks to the guys who said they could get 6% discount in Switzerland and that sales tax is only 7% in Switzerland. The only problem is that Switzerland is outside the EU, so I would need to pay 17.5% VAT on returning to the UK anyway so the price TO ME is the same!

    UK prices are holding reasonably well, although I've seen a few C2S with 4k miles for about Pounds62k - Pounds8k below list.

    Used prices reflect the spec'. A loaded used car will cost more just like new ones!

    Don't underestimate the P-car/F-car buying clowns in Malibu.

    When you drive a new car off the dealer's lot you immediately lose 10%
