Another temptation. I love an orange car 😍.
There are things I don't like about this car. And I think it's overpriced - £18750 seems a bit steep for a nearly 100'000 mile Cayman 987. And for that price, would need a bore score report.
The car has hung around a bit (AutoTrader advert September 2024.) There are some things I don't like about it:
- Is the GTS on the flanks vinyl or is it painted? (if painted, trying to get rid of them would need a repaint or wrap - expensive)
- I would get rid of the Porsche and GTS badges under the wing.
- What's happened to the seats (looks like a bodged effort at GTS logo on the seats - of course there was never a 987 GTS).
- Remove the GTS badge on the door (it's not a GTS...)
- Other minor things I could pass, like I'd probably prefer the standard bumper, not the black additional side scoops, not the black handles.
- And what does the Akrapovic exhaust sound like? (Not many videos on YouTube, the one I did see it sounded bad, like a fart can)
Truthfully, I simply don't have the money at this time. I need to:
- Pay off credit card debt
- Pay off a personal loan
- Pay off the mortgage (I'm very keen to be mortgage free)
- Build up an emergency fund (I keep raiding it ... I'm very naughty).
- Build up some investments (I want to retire in a few years ... I want to retire at/before I'm 55 ... 2030 sounds like a good year to retire ... so I'll need money to keep me going for a few years in a modest lifestyle ... sportscars will not be part of that modest lifestyle ... I may not even have 1 car!)
