Julian987 Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Rare to see (when they add the pics) a black Sport S, don't think I have ever seen one in black. https://www.pistonheads.com/buy/listing/12987752 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interestingly priced, I think £25k might be realistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was with a previous dealer for ages and then appeared with this dealer and its lacking in the holy grail spec. Mine is black but I think black is not a popular a colour on the R for most folk. But it is nice, if the price was right it would have sold so it is no doubt overpriced considering its low spec. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtaite01 Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 If anyone is after a real 'R' bargain, this one has been hanging around for a similar amount of time. A canny serious offer could take it for a very good price. High miles, and spec is about the worst I've seen on an R, but an excellent track focussed spec could be had for around £5-8K spend (very dependent on how much you're willing/able to DIY): + Sport button/software retrofit (as it's PDK, wouldn't bother for a manual) + PSE (nice to have, though not important for performance) + Aftermarket buckets, Recaro pole positions are nice + Lighter wheels, I like OZ Alleggeritas Now if you insisted on OEM Porsche buckets and Spyder wheels, this would quickly become uneconomical compared to the other options out there (likely >£10K in parts between them if new). Sadly I'm not in a position to take a punt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was 7k cheaper, I would take a punt as you can retrofit chrono, but that still leaves you with an undesirable car if you ever want to resell.

Don't think I was in much danger of going for it, but it might help others here to avoid (or build this into any offer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice car that if PDK is your preference. That's incorrect, from 2011 Porsche offered the R pack on the S. Infact mine came with the R wheels, R wing, R mirrors, R front splitters, painted central console, and R interior trim. These are quite rare factory spec'd cars and not necessary trying to be something they are not 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet in real life (as the pics don't show the colour popping in sunlight) it looks great. its got the extended Leather seats, rather than the silver backed ones. Matching center tunnel painted. Its quite a nice 2.9 I'd say https://www.mortimersprestige.co.uk/used-cars/14158780-porsche-cayman-2.9-manual/ just noticed they have taken new photos in sunlight to show the colour better now. Looks lovely in my opinion.

Neil_jdmr Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 He really does! I got my CS from him and it was the easiest and stress free sale I've had. Even the warranty he offers follows the same theme, easy. Replaced my coils at my local indy and he just dealt with them directly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
