Sad Day -My Porsche Cayman S arrived

And I'm NOT taking it

Ordered one about 5-6 months ago, Red, PSSM, Black Leather, Sport and Track options

"Sell it to someone else" I said

Actually the message on my voice mail is something like: "The Cayman you ordered is being unloaded off the truck, we have someone else who wants it, IF you don't ..." Yea, probably for a lot more money !!!!

So I'm a little confused....why don't you want the Cayman S? Too many cars or....? Just asking because I'd love to buy one (if I could afford it).

i guess its the insult he got from the porsche dealer that told him they want to sell to someone else because he's offering more money

i'd be pretty insulted if they did that to me

Tough choice. MINI, Cayman, Z4 Coupe, Z3 M Coupe, Lotus Exige and Noble M400. Having to choose among these six would really drive me nutz too. Glad you were able to slim it down to just the MINI and Cayman. Still, why not just mortgage the house, sell the kids and go for both?
