My son picked up a 2020 Golf GTI as a DD. They had a 718CS and a 14 981 CS PDK bare bones no go fast options blk/blk being sold as we were there. Clean history 30k miles buyer was paying $57k that is $6k more than my son paid for his 14 981 CSM fully loaded 4k miles with 2 sets of factory wheels, a factory car cover and a bunch of other goodies 18 months ago. These seem to be still climbing in price just like the air cooled 911's.
Re: price increase, yes it's totally plausible that the 981 is coming into a higher collector status. At the same time the whole market is up 20-30%, so I'd hesitate to claim with confidence that 981s will start to mirror air cooled patterns.
"As CY2021 came to an end, the retail listing price index closed 36% above where the year began.
Now in calendar year 2022, the index has been reverted back to the 1.00 mark. In the first several weeks of 2022, retail listing prices remain relatively unchanged as the market seems to be in wait-and-see mode."
The graph below is pulled from the report. Of course the index is for 2-6 year-old vehicles, so it's not a direct apples/apples comparison to the 981.
How much does a PDK replaced at 50,000 miles affect a car's value (if any)?
Not sure if I should be concerned why it was replaced or take it as a positive it's a new tranny in there?
I might consider selling my 2015 Cayman S for the right price..
2015 Porsche Cayman S in Agate Grey Metallic w/ 6 spd MT. I added rear lights, a rear diffuser, and updated steering wheel from the GT4. They are all genuine Porsche parts. It currently has about 18600 miles on the vehicle.
The additional options included with the cayman are: - Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV) - Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) - Sport Chrono Package - Porsche Sport Exhaust System - Porsche Dynamic Light System Plus (PDLS Plus) - Power Sport Seats (14 way) with Memory Package - Premium Package Plus (Heated/Ventilated Seats) - Infotainment Package with BOSE Surround Sound System - Instrument Dials, Chrono Clock, Seat Belts in Guards Red - 20" Carrera S Wheels Painted in Platinum Satin - Fire Extinguisher - Storage Compartment Lid in Alcantara - Gear Shift Lever in Alcantara
The entire vehicle is currently wrapped in XPEL Ultimate Plus and is in excellent condition. I originally planned to keep this car as my toy but I haven't been able to enjoy it as much with my half broken back.
Thanks for posting it. Not a bad build
Manual, Sport Chrono plus your creature comforts like premium package, Bose, seat ventilation...
Wish it had PASM and Sport Exhaust.
My old 981 Cayman S is for sale at Porsche Bend, Oregon. They are doing a terrible job of selling it. It states three previous owners, but it is only two. It has had zero accidents. It has a clear engine cover, which is attractive to some, but they don't tell you that. If you're looking for a good PDK example...
man I can’t do that interior color. Especially the steering wheel.
But they could have at least washed the car before taking pics
I considered cashing in, bought my '14 CS 12/2019 and the prices shot up soon after (a friend was also looking but didn't get as lucky ). But at the end of the day I knew I'd just be searching for another one so it wasn't really worth it
