So nice...please don't do this to me I already have a full garage with two Boxsters. I might have to build another garage . Your price is very good for an 'S' you should sell it fast.

Omaha to Charlotte would be a nice, fun run for a new to you Cayman S.

I will be taking my ad down tomorrow. I was in negotiation with a private seller on an 08 Signal Green Cayman S Sport, but he became a tool and didn't want to sell his car. Left the ad up incase he changed his mind but looks like he's going to keep his car. Thanks for looking.

[WhipE350]

So basically you were trading in one Cayman for a newer one? Your price was still a give away, they would be asking over 40k at the dealers here.

[husker boxster]

Yes, I was only going up 1 yr but the CS Sport had the options I now wish I had plus it had 25K fewer miles. My CS has been rock solid reliable, is a beautiful color, and still has CPO. It's not the end of the world that the deal fell through. The private party I was dealing with wanted me to hand over the full amount we negotiated a day before I picked it up. This after seeing the car in person 3 wks before. I don't know if it's a wadded up ball now. Then I'd have to hope he would pay off Porsche Financial Services to get the title AND then have him sign and deliver said title once he got it. Way too risky to me. I wanted to show up at his bank, bank wire transfer the payoff to PFS and wire the rest to his acct. Then I only had to hope he got me the title. He didn't want to - said you could somehow reverse the transfer after I had the car. He wasn't into selling the car but I wish he wouldn't have wasted my time. At least I'm not being interviewed by American Greed and they're asking me why I gave a fraudster $44.5K with nothing in return. I didn't fall off the turnip truck yesterday.

I have a link that allows me to look at Craigslists across the country for various make and model cars. I've noticed Charlotte and Raleigh consistently have high prices. To the point where I never check them because I'm sure there won't be any good deals. Why are cars so expensive in NC?

[Burg Boxster]

Congrats on your deal!

As a Carmon Red fan looking for a track car....

What's the revised price?

[husker boxster]

I updated post #1 with more info and new price - $34,250.

Shameless plug to bump the ad and get the views over 1200.

[WhipE350]

That is shameless! Looks like candy Porsche sprinkles in your driveway. Why is your grass so green, is that overseed?

[walt2810]

Nice collection in the driveway

[Frodo]

Hey Husker, admit it---you liked jelly beans as a kid, didn't you??

[mcomet]

Very nice... I really love the look of the Cayman. All you need is red, blue and yellow and you will be on your way...heh. I am pretty sure my next car will be a coupe, but probably long while off... GLWS.

I just sent this link to my brother and he may be interested.

We are in Cali though.

Oh...beautiful collection btw!

[husker boxster]

Carmen would like Cali. :dance: I have no problems working out the details (airport pick-up, transport shipping, etc).

Better hurry, I've got a hot to trot buyer in Nigeria. He's already sent more than my asking price to a fictious PayPal acct.

[986_c6]

Lol!

Can't they at least use a different country this time around!

[986_c6]

I like the way u name ur car.

I guess my Box would be called Seal.

My two Mazers would be called Pozzi and Argento.

This is kind of fun, but all my cars are males, I want a Carmen...wah,wah,wah!

[husker boxster]

Deposit received. Rest coming either later this week or more likely Tue.

Whip, you waited too long. (J/K, I've seen your other threads)

[husker boxster]

Maybe not a better home as Vlad seems like a bit of a gearhead / boy racer. But his money spends, so off she goes. He only lives 4 miles from me, so I may see her from time to time. Plus he's going to join the P-car club. Carmen is getting a name change as it means something about being put on a shelf in Russian (didn't catch all the words but he said it didn't translate well). Hope she doesn't try to take out me, Sydney (the signal green Cayman), and herself in a fit of rage.

Anyway, the finances are now much better. No more 2 payments a month. Should have Sydney paid off in about a year and a half.

Thanks to everyone for all the views. I was hoping to pass the for sale thread for the NASA Boxster, but maybe next time. 2K views is nothing to sneeze at.

So long, Carmen.
