I guess I'm back.
Haven't owned a Porsche or posted here in years. Well Monday I picked up my next P car. A 2009 base Cayman manual with a full service history.
Any of the OG Gruppe B crazies still haunt this place? Here is a pic of my new car and the ones that went before it.

Nice looking Cayman, but beware of Jaguars...they eat Caymans.
