My guess is that after about 4 pages, you will not be any closer to getting your answer.

Buy one that is already set up.

The Cayman's that we saw at NJ were really nice; set up by a Chicago area dealer (and written up in recent Panorama, if I recall). In your choice of historic livery I believe.
Doc - perhaps better to sell what you got as a street car and buy a turnkey car?

The dealership in Chicago is Napleton Porsche in Westmont, IL. http://www.napletonmotorsports.com/ I believe the cars go for around $75k but I could be making that up. Here is a thread that discussed it a little while ago

In addition to the purchase of the car or car included???

Assume you want a turn key # as opposed to you doing a lot of work?

Paolo,
No offense meant here, but it seems like you have been looking for a reason to drive something ELSE ever since you bought your current race car. Do you not like your car?? I love mine and would love it even more in Prepared F trim...

I believe that is with the price of the car but again Im not positive. Living in Chicago, its just the # I have heard in the Porsche circles.

The Napleton cars start at $90k+. That includes the 2009/2010 cayman.
