Default Decent price?

2006 Cayman S
90k miles
chrono
PSM
6 speed
Fabspeed headers and exhaust
harness bar (not a cage)
factory seats
underdrive pulley
deep sump
rennline sway bars
larger throttle body
oil air separator
cryo rotors and hawk pads
condition 8.5/10

pretty much stock otherwise and i'm looking for a capable HPDE car that is comfy for a long drive to and from track.

what's a good price? what's a covid market reality price?

and, yes, the first trip will be to the shop for the LN IMS.

$23k ish? Get a PPI with a boroscope.
FYI you can't really change the IMS like you can with the older cars. Well, I guess you can but its much more invasive and complicated and it doesn't seem like a thing anyone bothers with.

That's pretty much where i landed too. And yeah all you can do is improve the oiling of the IMS. An '09+ would be a much better option.
