Nice upgrade! How old are you? I imagine a Cayman would double my car insurance being 23 years old, wonder why yours didnt?? And how do you feel about basic or even major maint.? I would be constantly paranoid about my porsche having even minor issues or general wear and tear, ive heard for years the service fees are insane for those german beasts, but maybe its hear-say?

 

do you have accidents on your record?

with a few tickets and 0 accidents. 22 yr old. I pay $1000/year for full coverage.
Im shopping for a new car right now. a 3rd car to add onto my ins.
quotes Viper SRT 08: $1500/year
1M: $1000/year
Evora: $1200/year

All with Geico.

 

YOU'LL BE BACK.

Grats on the Cayman.

 

Nand, thanks. The dealership sure makes us feel special (at a price)

Jump, if I didn't take two years off away from the S, the jump probably would not have happened.

Touge, yes that was a concern, but you live once. The CPO warranty is quite comprehensive at 6 years and 100k miles. Nearly everything is covered except wear and tear items like brakes, tires, and oil. Oil changes are recommended at once a year or 10k miles, however, they are more expensive. Reliability for these cars looks reasonable too. It's a pay to play ordeal. I am quite a bit older than you (38) with an excellent driving record, so my rates stay low almost irrespective of vehicle.

S2, I would never kick a AP2 out of bed if it crawled in

 

Happened w/ me - I had a Cayman S between my 2nd and 3rd S2000's. LOVED mine, the ownership experience was great aside from a couple of less than favorable dealer experiences.

Congrats!

 

Thanks Chris. How often did you replace your tires?

 

Congrats.

In for pics!

 

Grats, definitely a good upgrade.

 

Thanks Umar and Stevo.. The wife keeps asking: why is it so loud?

 

LOL. Sounds like something my wife would say. I think I'm in trouble next time after driving the lexus; it's all relative (and I have my eye on some sort of porsche next time around).
