Used Car of the Day: 2010 Porsche Cayman S

Today's used car of the day is a manual-transmission 2010 Porsche Cayman S that comes to us from Dallas.


The car has new brake pads, rotors, and tires, and has had some cosmetic damage. It also appears to have leaking topside gaskets.

There are about 67K miles on the clock.

So it's not in perfect shape, but it appears to be in good enough condition that if you want a used Porsche with a stick and can put in a bit of work, you could get yourself a sweet ride.

The asking price is $42,000.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

    Feels a bit high but then again... forget it Jake, its Clown World.

    In 2021 someone in Sewickley had an MY01 soft top in a manual with 54K otc which I am fairly certain was a 996 and not a Boxster - $20K. I already had my C70 at the shop being reborn and could have done the $20K but it would have been tight and just didn't make sense. Still...



  • Jeff Agree but manufacturers in the US have discontinued manuals on most vehicles and eventually discontinue all manuals. The problem is that most vehicles made today have computers controlling most functions in vehicles. HVAC, power steering, power brakes, parking brakes, transmissions, and many other functions that were manual and now electronic that in the past were easy to repair and more reliable. The Maverick has a lot less technology than many of the newer vehicles at least you can control lights, temperature, and radio without going through a screen but compared to past vehicles I have owned it has more technology than I want or need.Not that I am looking forward to these recalls as a Maverick owner but I will get them taken care of. I do not like the trend toward mechanical functions that have worked well for decades being controlled through a computer function or CANBUS. It is cheaper for the automakers to buy preassembled components reducing time on the assembly line but it makes it more expensive to work on and the parts are usually more expensive. Hoovie and the Car Wizard have some good videos on the difficulty of working on most modern day vehicles and the increasing expense of replacement parts.
  • Funky D I have pretty much my entire music collection on my phone (72 GB) worth, so I always have something to listen to when I don't want to stream SiriusXM.
  • Tassos I never look for stupid "tunes" either on the road or anywhere else.I bring my music (the Great Music, not damned "tunes") with me, but on long trips I enjoy books on tape I would not have had the patience to read at home (my two homes look like BOOKSTORES, and not filled with the crap the average moron reads either). One category of books I never had the patience to read was Philosophy, but I did enjoy borrowing books on CD on the subject and listening to them on long trips.PS I bet the fake Loser listens to.. "country"...
