Well, after much discussing, looking, more discussing, more looking, saving money, more discussing, more looking, I finally picked up a Cayman S (2007 with 62k miles).
I know understand the heaps of praise the car mags have for this car. VERY nice and a good addition to the 993 and 914! (Now to use my excess energy to worry and consider next steps related IMS bearing)

One of my 993 at VIR under heavy braking! With the rise of 993 values, It looks like the Cayman will take the 993s place at the track.
