cardiologist, eh...shouldn't you be more in the market for a 911

I've been drooling over the cayman S for a while, it would be my pick. I saw a red one with a drop and black/chrome rims in Austin, looked and sounded gorgeous.

Get a Vette.


Just kidding. Get the Boxster if you like to drop the top, otherwise the Cayman S should be your pick. Offer them $13k off sticker and if they say no, give them your card, ask them to call if they get serious, and leave.

If they know you're serious (and a cardiologist's business card should do the trick), they might just take you up on the offer as the economy slowly spirals downward...

can you open/close the top of the Boxster while moving? That'd be a nice feature. Maybe a small thing but it's a pain with the S2000 has to have the p-brake on.

Phil, you know there is a workaround for that in the S2000, right? Pretty simple to do...

I wouldn't let them know you are a Doc unless you really have to. I never walk into a dealership looking like a million bucks, even the Lambo dealership. I'm always tshirt/jeans. I make sure (like you are doing) that I've done my research on prices etc. And always know more than the salesman. Ive always come out happy that way. If I'm dressed down and they don't give me the time of day, fine I can buy my car elsewhere. If someone talks to me even 5 minutes they'll automatically be able to get an idea of the amount of education I've endured.

$13k off sticker....jesus I hope the PD Edition I @ our dealer is still sitting there next summer when my lease runs out. lol

I think the sticker is like 71 but for 58 suddenly that becomes a great deal.
