I am the prior owner of WP0AB2A83CS793088 - I have most of the maintenance history from my ~11 years of ownership. Posting as an FYI in case a prospective buyer or the new owner has any questions. Please PM me if so.

Default Just missed it !

Darn it I have been waiting to find a nice Cayman R to come back to Porsche from Lotus Evora GT


There are/were two black ones for sale and one silver one the PCA site ( carbon ceramic brakes but she sold before I found her)
Of the twin black ones
One failed to meet reserve on pcar net and was available on deal tank for 90k
Today looks like she is gone
The other sits at Isringhaus low miles and remarkably 2 year cpo but for 99k.
They have been firm on price for over a month and offered a low trade value for my 3k mile Lotus

At that price hard not to go for a gts 4.0.

Wow, someone is getting a steal. I wouldn't be surprised to see that one up for sale again for at a much higher price.

Original clear bra is turning/has turned yellow. Paint chips on hood above since it was not full coverage.
OEM rocker panel film needs replacement, tons of chips around these areas from super sticky tires.
Non-OEM pads/rotors.
Self performed maintenance (except belt replacement) for past few years.
etc.

Not a $90k car in my opinion, hence why I did not go the private sale route.

Many of us do not want a garage-queen museum piece, but we do want maintenance records/receipts, even if DIY maintenance with part receipts. I actually prefer buying from a previous owner. Hopefully they gave you close to that for it. Seems like a $74,000-78,000 car. LWBs, 6-speed manual, Sport Chrono, PSE... all the right options.

I always start an Excel spreadsheet and, if I'm not the first owner, re-construct the history as best I can. It tells a story and keeps things organized and in perspective.

Me as well. I have two sections. One for upgrades and one for maintenance/service. Date , description , and mileage are listed for each.
