congrats. Not to mention 911 owners don't really consider Boxster/cayman to be real porkers. Real snubs they are. Oh well... welcome to the rotary addiction.

wow congrats man! Blue is by far the best R3 color even though I'm partial to Black

I can't wait to see what you're going to do w/ this beast. I think you'll be the first one on here to actually start modding their '09...

Borla
I email them every month about my 40th, there response is they have never fitted an 08 let alone an 09. 2008's have been out for over a year, makes me wonder. By the way, welcome.

Congratulations Jagger!!!! I am envious. If I didn't love my '04 so much, that is the car that I would trade it on. The color is the best of the new colors. Enjoy it for many years to come.

Oh, damn, but don't worry too much if it doesn't happen, the Cayman is not really that bad of a car.

You are just going to have to deal with the fact that no trade-in is going to get a good deal these days. Dealerships have a hard time moving cars as it is right now.

I could have predicted something like this from Jaggerbomb. Something tells me the rollercoaster ride is not over.

Our controller can only get 3500 bucks for his 2004 Suburban.

That's less than 10 % after four years of ownership.

It looks like he's been trying to sell it on his own, with no luck.

If it was so easy today, he wouldn't have to resort in trading it in and get screwed from behind. It is doubtful buyers who are looking for a Cayman are interested in a modified one unless it is dirt cheap. For these kinda car, one would prefer stock and mint.... wouldn't you. It's no Civic.

Actually, I prefer to buy used to avoid big depreciation hit, sensible mods could be a plus. Maybe that's just me.

This "I DID IT!!!!!!11111~" thread is the equivalent of a kid being potty-trained who pooped well outside the desingated area.
