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.

Still seem to be holding their value! Anyone have any predictions for the coming years?

POST 4Original post

go up like any other rare great drivers car :-) 49k at one opc still. Still the best car I have owned, so buy now and bag yourself a lower milage car and start enjoying.

POST 6Original post

I missed one on mobile.de a few weeks ago. Black, manual, PSE, bucket seats, full alcantara, xenon... 62.000€ with 50 (fifty) delivery kilometers on it. I hope it made somebody else very, very happy... As for value I think it will depend on what the Cayman GT4 brings. If that is going to be naturally aspirated with a 3.8l engine and a manual option, I think the Cayman R will take a little hit long term. If the GT4 is going to be another PDK-S only affair (or god forbid a 4-pot turbo) then the Cayman R is arguably forever PH’s favourite thanks to the NA 6 cylinder, hydraulic steering, etc. Spyders are already well on their way up although we’ll have to see what autumn brings.

POST 7Original post

new cars which are 100% more expensive never affect older cars if the GT4 is 90k the R will not take any hit. but the R is a tough one to call price wise. less manual R's than manual Spyders in the UK and because dealers speced most with sports seats and turbo wheels prob only about 40 manual R's with buckets and spyder wheels in the UK.

I see Cayman R prices softening over the next year for a number of reasons. Halo Effect The new Cayman GT4 (981 model)is unlikely to have a direct impact on Cayman R (987) prices but it will replace the Cayman R being the 'fastest motorsport Cayman'. When/if the GT4 comes out, there may even be a positive interest in the Cayman R as it will be highlighted as a bargain relative to the new GT4. OPC Availability Current Cayman R prices seem to range from £39,995 to £49,995 but these are being kept high as these cars are on sale at OPCs. Once OPCs stop selling them and the prices will soften. New Cayman S Expect the new Cayman S (981 model) to have a bigger impact as people choose the 'new model' over the previous generation. Performance wise the new Cayman S (981) is equal to the Cayman R and it's more economical. Although I still believe a Cayman R with the right spec (manual, buckets, spider wheels) will sell quickly if priced correctly. IMO of course. Like shares they could go up or down!

POST 9Original post

As with any limited model in such small numbers will always command more money. In the case of the Cayman R its a fantastic car those who own one will know how good they are. Had GT3s and its a much better road car . Only way is up in the future as there does not seem to be anything thats a bit special that has not gone though the roof. Agree about certain specs what does a sports car really need.

Values eh? As a used car dealer once said......There are known knowns. These are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say, there are things that we know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know.

POST 14Original post

the Cayman R club is a strong club :-) most ex GT3 owners as well :-p

POST 15Original post

Well I've had my R (manual, buckets, spiders, peridot) for about 3 months and I have to say it is absolutely fantastic. I've had a couple of Boxsters, a 996 C4 and a 997 C2S and this is head and shoulders better than any of them. Get one, you'll love it!
