Well, I'm still looking for a reasonably priced Cayman R...
I'd love a low mile "S" with Sport Chrono and a 6-speed. I doubt I'll ever be able to afford an "R".
... but I'm a Cretin and would love an "S" with a blown motor so I could do a Renegade LS conversion on one.

I've been keeping an eye on 2006-2008 Cayman S 6-speeds. Prices are good, and getting better. The 987.1 cars have a much larger and trouble-free IMS bearing.

The REALLY smart thing would be to get a 987.2, from 2009 and up. Direct injection and no intermediate shaft, means no IMS bearing to worry about at all.

There's a blue 2008 S on bring-a-trailer now with 3 days left, currently at $12,500. It's got 102K on the clock. It'll go to at least 18-20k if I'm right.

There's a white 2007 S with sport seats, Sport Chrono and PASM in North Jersey right now, 91K on the clock and asking $20k. Rennlist.

I'll be getting one when the time is right(and the money LOL).
