I bought this car 3 years ago, in early 2011, from WA state. I have service records from new. The previous owner had the TPC turbo installed in WA, along with a limited slip diff and a host of non-performance stuff outlined below. The car had approximately 23,000 miles when I purchased it and has about 31,000 miles now. For the past year plus, the car has only been driven on weekends and at the track. Since buying the car, I've done at least a dozen Drivers Events - basically it would be criminal not to drive this car on track! It is wonderfully predictable, neutral and balanced, like all Caymans, but a lot faster. I've only run the car on low boost, whether on track or off. With the GT2 seats and harnesses, you feel completely connected to the car. It is a near perfect weekend/DE car as setup.
I had a complete pre-purchase inspection done at my expense when I bought the car and it passed with flying colors. It has had zero issues since I bought it except for an exhaust leak (repaired) and a CEL due to an aftermarket gas cap (since removed). Since purchasing the car, it has been exclusively serviced by TPC Racing in Jessup, MD. I had TPC install their track pack for improved oil circulation to the motor and their stage 3 suspension, which retains PASMicon adjustability. I can supply a carfax and can also deliver the car to TPC or an area dealer for pre-purchase inspection if the buyer so desires.
Full disclosure: I have driven this car hard since buying it, and it has had plenty of time charging to redline. But I treat my cars very well and this car has been a strong and reliable performer. Overall the body is in excellent condition but it does have some small rock chips on the front end. With over $30k of aftermarket goodies, I think it's a great deal. To create this from scratch with a stock used Cayman would cost well over $60k.

Nice driving. This is a clean and sorted car. We have been doing the maintenance work for 3 years. No CEL. No issues. GLWS.

TPC say 460 crank hp with the stage 2 setup - i believe running at high boost. I only run it at the lower boost, which I think is supposed to be more like 420 bhp. I have never had the car dynoed, so I don't make any personal claims to those numbers.
The audio from the FATT vid doesn't quite do the car justice either. Particularly from the outside, it sounds like the car is slicing through the air.
I'll see if I can find a video from a friend...

amazing car. i'll trade you my lightly modded c4s right now. I miss my cayman and yours is obviously done right. it's crazy how 20 min of a youtube vid feels like 20 min but 20 min in the drivers seat on the track feels like 2 min.

I can't believe no one has snapped this up. I have same seal grey and track prepared without the TPC. It handles fantastic as most know and with the extra power is a true DE toy.
