Popular Post nytelfer Posted February 6, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 6, 2019 Greetings from Australia - I noticed the reference to CaymanOC in the “Icon Buyer” article in the Feb issue of Car magazine. Have had my 2014 build Cayman S for almost 2-years and still as enthusiastic as when I purchased it - mine is not a daily driver so always a sense of anticipation when I start the engine for a run on the weekend. Other than a couple of (relatively minor) warranty claims and a set of new tyres at 30,000km, it has required only routine maintenance so likely a long-term ownership prospect. My sons gave me a set of personalised “981” registration plates about 3 years before I found the right car after a long search so not an impulse purchase! Porsches, and Caymans in particular, are a rare sight here so attract lots of attention on the road, particularly when there are several cars travelling together. I don’t have numbers for base or GT4 981 models but there are only 197 “S” models (181 PDK /manual) and 90-95 “GTS” cars (incl.10 manual) for all of Australia between 2013 & 2016 - worth noting Australian cars are highly specified compared to many other global markets so new prices were high - a well optioned “S” (PASM, Chrono, PASM, PSE & metallic) cost circa A$190k from new which largely explains the lower numbers. Looking forward to exploring this site. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
