Stop the teasing. It's like putting coke in front of a drug addict.

By the way I also think mooty wins for most words on a car window sticker.

Just contact Mooty to get a pair of those gold E88s and join the club, you have plenty of room for an extra set of tires now.

Looks like its now for sale at a dealership.

The photos from the dealer don't show the color too well.

Not surprising it's still for sale. The local Ferrari dealer had a Vesuvio 458 it took them months to get rid of.

It's still at Auto Gallery - Woodland Hills as of last night.

Trying to decide if it's worth a straight trade on my 2014 Cayman S w/PDK. I love the color but don't love the lack of CPO and GT2 seats. Mileage is higher on the '12 vs my '14 too.

That car is so great. Dammit. I'm actually glad it doesn't have sport buckets, or I'd HAVE to get it and risk the wrath of my wife...

I don't understand. Finding a Cayman R with buckets and a stick is nearly impossible... especially when both were standard. The only things I wanted (if I had ordered one) would've been A/C and black wheels.

I bet you I could sell my Vesuvio 997.2RS pretty quickly.

Still on the lot today, with a $67,xxx window sticker now.

Few fun facts from the salesman today:
-No CPO as the car is on consignment
-Original sticker said to be $90K+

Also, Carfax shows a couple of repairs around 5K miles; seem like warranty work and nothing to be worried about.

Still too much $ without CPO for me to even consider making a move. And the more I drive my '14 CS I think I'm liking it as a daily.
