I’m gonna go with actual knobs, switches and dials to control HVAC and Stereo adjustments. I didn’t realize these were a safety feature until the idiot automakers started replacing them with touchscreens.

You’ve needed help, of the professional type, for years.  Not talking about a mechanic either ;-)

Maybe for the part of the country east of Mississippi River, but it makes very little sense for most of the country’s interior.

Anything with a 6000 GVWR that isn’t actually being used for construction or industrial use is crazy overkill.

if you wanna be cool don’t buy a badge whored sellout CUV.

The stereotype math checks out here, lol

See Goose’s comment about the bullshit and absurdity of the tax incentive. Does anyone not see something incredibly odd here? Their commute is increasing, and rather than buy something that gets better gas mileage than a 4Runner (not hard to do) they’d rather go bigger and less efficient. Talk about ridiculousness.

Amen...other than the GLS part.

Yeah I get that. Same situation everywhere, thanks to our government’s wisdom and disregard for engine (rolleyes). However, if you’re planning to buy fuel specifically to store it in tanks, or know that the vehicle being filled up won’t be driven for a while, it’s worth seeking out an ethanol free source.

I don’t do it…

If the fuel that’s sat for a few years doesn’t have any ethanol in it, you should be fine.

No fuel in Raleigh. I need fuel for a trip to Charleston this weekend.

hahaha

If the suspension is still original it’ll cost more than a clutch replacement to have all that replaced as well. Not a big deal if you’re going to cruise the boulevard in this car, but that’s not why (most) people buy these...

Engine failure in this car is most definitely not a “totaled” situation.

How do you know it’s not offered for sale anywhere else?

Not sure if it helps, but I’m here to tell you that Cayman prices aren’t going down any more.  Going nowhere but up.  If you can, figure out a way to buy one soon, or you’ll be outside looking in indefinitely.

That doesn’t any sense to me either.  You can put the seat back pretty upright in a Cayman.  Has an adjustable steering wheel as well.

It only takes one buyer to decide what something is “worth”.  Not your opinion ;-)

IMS went away in 2009 with the new 9A1 direct injection engine.  Besides not having an IMS it has a much more robust oiling system and stronger rod bolts.  Sadly far fewer 987s were built after 2008 so if you try to find one be ready to pay 50-100% more than an earlier Cayman.

I owned a 2006 Cayman S for 6 years. Crack pipe here, at least given the lack of information. If the suspension is original, budget at least $3000 to freshen it up (DIY, more if paying a shop). There’s no mention of the clutch; most wear out between 75k-100k miles. That’s $2500-3500 parts in labor at a shop for a new…
