Hi Guesty99,

Welcome aboard!

I was in the same position. I drove three 996's and one Cayman S. The Cayman was the one for me. I've had it 6 months now and have no regrets.

Like you, I spent ages looking and eventually found a great deal. For me, (this is just my opinion) I doubt I'll ever buy a brand new car again, much prefer to skip the hefty depreciation from new.

Looks like you got a real bargain. I opted for finance directly from my bank and got 5.9%.

As for ownership, as you'll know your Warranty runs out next month. Unless you intend to extend it, I'd get anything obvious checked ASAP. Rattles from the cabin were my main problem. I had the third break-light fixed and a rear shock all under Warranty. I still get a rattle from rear from cold, but when the car is warmed up it's fine.

It's a great car. Enjoy.
