If your new Cayman is Arctic Silver, I have a free Dr ColorChip touchup kit, barely used
Just pay the postage.
I am in San Diego as well, you could have picked it up

Congrats on the car

the 9X7.2 is probably my favorite generation of Porsche and I've been eyeballing them myself. Do you mind if I ask what you picked it up for?
The normal asking price for these cars is $40K, I paid $37K plus the BAT buyers fee (5%), so it was a fair price.

You'll love your CS. The 987.2 is a great platform. Just be sure to change the trans fluid frequently (sooner than factory spec) if you do track days. The few warts look like they could be tackled with some DR Colorchip.

Congrats on the Box sale. Didn't take long to sell.
The Boxster sold in a few hours! I posted in the local PCA Facebook page about getting the Cayman, and mentioned that I'd be putting up my Boxster for sale for a good price. I got six immediate inquiries about it (including one from Knoxville, TN), and sold it to a really cool guy who has a warehouse full of Porsches (including a '72 911 RS). He bought it for his son, so it's going to a really good home.

I was afraid that it would take all winter to sell it!

It is Arctic Silver, thanks for the offer! I'll PM you and get the information.

I just moved on to an SL

I jumped into an 2011 SL550, on the highway I am more secure and feel safer.
I found the interest in my 986S cars too tempting to ignore. They are sold.
:+(

Ill be back, hopefully with a Beck 550 replica or a nice 914 if some of these cheap camaros dont distract me.
your new car is beautiful, BTW
