Just talked to my salesman an hour ago and he said first the website said no changes will be accepted and now they sent a fax that also said no more changes are being accepted.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

17 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1Original post

Orient Express has gratiously provided PDF files from Porsche Sales and Marketing for your review with highly detailed information about the Cayman, some never seen before. There is also additional information on certain options and when they will become available in the U.S., for example the Carrera Sport wheels are coming to the U.S. but not until early 2006. Enjoy! Click Here to view this information (files are hosted elsewhere)

POST 2Original post

I see availability dates for certain options in that document. That should clear some things up. -P

POST 3Original post

Yes, such as those Carrera Sport wheels available in the US in what was it Feb or March? Along with many more options available in December, but does that mean a December build, or a December order? Let's hope it means BUILD!

POST 4Original post

Once again proof positive that we have an AWESOME site here. Many thanks to K-Man-S!

POST 5Original post

Great information. This should help with the long wait until delivery. I was amazed that the offical Porsche order site that the sales person used is so weak. Options must be manually written down on an order form and conflicts checked by eye. The fact that I could do my research from the info on this site made me better prepared than the sales staff in placing my order. Thanks again for this site.

POST 6Original post

Thanks for the kind words, we seek to inform and assist!

POST 7Original post

It's interesting to read what cars Porsche considers 'competitors' to the Cayman. 305Z?? RX-8? Audi TT? C'mon who are they kidding - those cars are approx. half the price of a Cayman (if not less). The Z06 and M3 I understand and maybe even the SLK, but the others ... /fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/MWPX/crazy.gif

POST 8Original post

Yeah, it said they're addressing the market from $25k to $60k.... that's not the same market if you ask me!

POST 9Original post

Because that is not what they said. They said that they are trying to attract people 'upgrading' from those cars meaning younger people that could only afford a $30-50K car, but have since had some financial success and now are looking for something more. Pretty funny since I had a 350Z and my wife currently drives an Audi TT 3.2 DSG Roadster.

POST 10Original post

I sure hope that some of the option availability is for the build date and not the beginning order date, ie. sport shifter shows 12/05. Hopefully that will be when it becomes available as mine is supposed to be a Dec. build. Also, while reading through the files, it says there is an option for a tinted windshield. However I did not see anything listed in the options list. Anyone have more info about this??

POST 11Original post

I would tend to believe that the short shifter will be available to order on 12/05 or after.......so I would not expect any cars that are ordered from now until then will be able to get it. If you have a Dec. build you will probably still be out of luck. I believe the tinted windshield is more for the Euro market......US spec cars already have this to same extent, so I don't think it will be available here.

POST 12Original post

it woudl be easy to go aftermarket on the short shifter. much cheaper too. BUT. I want to have one installed from the factory though!

POST 13Original post

thanks for the info k-man, i love this car more with every picture i see. i cant wait to own 1.

POST 15Original post

thanks for all your work on setting up this forum and getting the info K-man.

POST 16Original post

Afterhaving put in and been rejected twice on the sport shifter I did get it finally added to my December build. Now after reading wheel posts I'm thinking of requesting one last change, going from SD's to standard 18''s...hmmmm

POST 17Original post

I have put in twice and rejected twice for my full leather! Just talked to my salesman an hour ago and he said first the website said no changes will be accepted and now they sent a fax that also said no more changes are being accepted. You mean I still have a chance? I will push him to ask again! Thanks Russ
