Leading evidence: 'paint' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'paint' (1 discussions; 0 report identifying it and 1 suggest it). The most frequently discussed action is 'Replace just encourages my lovely wife' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

Suggestion
But I just figured anything that easy to change just encourages my lovely wife to drive the Porsche, which she can, just not too often.

I tried to change my order a couple of weeks ago, but the build date had been brought forward from January to TOMORROW !
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.

In my Cayman day dreams I often think about all the options I passed on. It's a whole booklet after all, so you have to stop somewhere.
So if you gave in and got 1 more, what would it be?
For me it would beAdaptive seats. I want them, but almost $4000!
PCCB would be the only option I would. Actually I went back tried to add it, but I was late by one day /fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/MWPX/sad_smile.gif
I don't think about it like that. Like I held back and regret it somehow. The average price of the specs listed are only about half of what you could get the price to. Nobody posted a spec that really went 'all the way'. I thought it would be interesting to see where different people drew the line. Like me, $8200 for brakes was ok, but the seats and PCMwere too much! People are strange... FT probably got both of the those...
Actually I was wrong above, with Full Leather I could have got Adaptives (P01L) for $2695. mmm...
I still have a month before need to confirm all options but its great to have read all your inputs. Its still tough and I seem to change my mind each and every day. All I know is that once I getgator, all the stars will once again be aligned
If I could choose one more option it would be PASM. At the time I placed the order, the Porsche Salesman convinced me that PASM was a waste of money unless I intended to track the car. However, after readiing various reviews from people with actual cars I now wished that I had selected it after all. I tried to change my order a couple of weeks ago, but the build date had been brought forward from January to TOMORROW !
I wanted the leather console and door finishers but they weren't available at the time and they weren't important enough for me to delay the car. After optioning out my car I sold a motorcycle and found myself with extra cash but there was nothing else I wanted to add. It confirmed I am getting the car just the way I want it and there wasn't 'one more option'.[/quote]
With unlimited funds I would add:
PCCB
Full Leather interior
PCM - mainly for Sport Chrono Plus
Auto-dimming mirrors
But generally, I'm very happy - roll on the 1st of March!
Adaptive seats as well! I could have added the PCCB's but since I'm not sure how often I'll track the car I couldn't justify that for my 1st real sports car. I want to give it a spin and like everyone probably get my perfect car the 2nd time around.
Way too open of a question as I don't think the Cayman isa money-no-object car. There'sno way I would spec one past the mid-70's......as in two or three years a better one will be out and I'd rather keep the money for that event, and the next one, and the next one........I know where Porscheis going with this and it's only going to get better.
If I hadsix months to live (and I do plan to live a lot longer) and could only enjoy one Cayman I would add PCCB, PCM, steering wheel controls, adaptive seats, more leather, and interior items painted exterior color. Probably a paint to sample also. Just didn't see the justification for any of the above on this car though. I still wouldn't go with PASM as I don't have a need for it in either mode and prefer the feel and ready for anything stock setup.

Chris - you have a beautifully optioned out car - and have most of my dream additions such as PCCB. Actually I didn't know the adaptive seats were that high. But I just figured anything that easy to change just encourages my lovely wife to drive the Porsche, which she can, just not too often. She prefers SUV's anyway. Manual seats for me! And any saved money goes into improving the rest of my options - for what I decide to afford.
Actually I did not /fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/MWPX/regular_smile.gifI chose few what I would call essential ones, but like you mentioned, 'essential' is different for each person. I got PASM, sport steering, Preferred 1, chrono, manual sp. seats, Xenons, and that is it. It will certainly not be on any concours but willsee many track/autox events; hopefully /fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/MWPX/thumbsup.gif
Headers, Fre-Flow intake, Clear engine cover, ECU tuning, set of track wheels/tires, camera mount, 5 point harness, kompressor, oh and maybe a chrome exhaust tip... <hr />
I have quite a few options, and am not sure if I could add another at this point, but the one I find myself thinking about now it the Tire Pressure Monitoring System - anyone else still think they want this?
