I’m surprised that they didn’t name it the 718 Cayman Turbo

The comments section on here is almost unusable.  I’m amazed it was physically possible for anyone to post that many.  

I’m speechless, but with 36,895 comments, I haven’t always been speechless.  This post is the best prize ever!  Thanks so much, Andrew!

The people I see buying, driving and showing Radwood generation cars are mostly too young to be Gen X. 

How much did they pay you to take it? :) 

No they don’t. Early Millennials are the one’s buying those things.  

Have to confess. That Lancia Delta Integrale Evo 2’s sale price is the only one that didn’t make my head spin because of how genuinely special I believe that car is.

As a 928S owner who keeps tabs on prices, this is right in there and maybe a tad low for a manual model in this shape and mileage.

BMW 135i. It came out during the recession, like the Challenger, and it sold in low numbers. Taking the inline-6 turbo and putting it in the smallest BMW 2+2 since the E30 was a great idea, and it also still had the hydraulic steering. Add some suspension upgrades and you have a 1M killer.

The BMW N54 HPFP is failure-prone but not super expensive to replace. Remanufactured part is around $350ish or so and the labor’s not too bad. The same HPFP is used on the later single turbo N55 motor. I had to replace mine. The bigger concern and potential repair cost on the N54 is the turbos themselves.

You’re very efficiently proving his point. Congratulations!

Lol at ease

I absolutely despise alcantara. Just thinking about touching it makes my skin crawl. And that’s just new alcantara. Have you ever experienced old alcantara? Matted down by greasy palms and rubbed smooth. . . makes me sick.  Just a revolting material to make an interior out of.

I just can’t get over the number of Alcantarias that were killed for this interior!

I just got a dubiously-McLaren-branded phone which came with an “Alcantara and Carbon Fibre” protective case, with the promotional material touting that it gives the feel of a McLaren Senna steering wheel. Well, if that’s the case, it’s completely killed my desire to ever drive a Senna.

This interior makes me think less “ooh alcantara race car!” and more “George Costanza draped in velvet.”

There are literally dozens of us!

$8 apiece? I guess, if it’s the one you just have to have. Maybe I’m just not an F&F/sport compact guy so I’m judging too harshly on this particular set.

72k...is the key point there, and while I agree Porsche CPO is the best way to go some folks don’t have the budget. You can get nice Porsches for reasonable money without the CPO, you just have to do the homework.
