Re: 07 cs with ceramic brakes, pasm, chrono, nav
Yep listed here:
07' Cayman S Cobalt Blue PCCB 1,900 miles! - Cayman Classifieds
Although I am assuming he must have traded it in on some BMW and now they are trying to sell it. Such a shame looks like a terrific car, if I had an extra $40k laying around I'd scoop that baby up!

Re: 07 cs with ceramic brakes, pasm, chrono, nav
Doesn't it cost like $5k to replace the ceramic brakes? I realize it doesn't need that now, but that's an insane amount to pay for a brake job.
Could you replace them with the standard brakes when the time comes?

About $4K PER ROTOR, so you're looking at a $16-20K brake job.

Re: 07 cs with ceramic brakes, pasm, chrono, nav
Then again you may never need to replace those rotors for as long as you own the car...

That's true, and why I considered ordering them in spite of the rotor cost. Still, the prospect of replacing one of those rotors is daunting.
BTW, I actually considered the car in question before I ordered mine. The price was a lot higher then, and I was at the wrong end of the country to make the purchase at all convenient. At $46K it's an incredible bargain, and my decision would likely have been different.

Yep, mine definitely would have been different!

Re: 07 cs with ceramic brakes, pasm, chrono, nav
Wow, that is a nice list of options for that price. And so close to me too! Someone is going to end up with one hell of a car.

Re: 07 cs with ceramic brakes, pasm, chrono, nav
Very well equipped Cayman S at what I think is a great price. Sport seats, PASM, PCCB, Nav, very low mileage, 19" Sport Design wheels -I'd jump on it if you like the car.....it doesn't get any better than this. Good luck!

PASM - Porsche Active Suspension Management
|
 |
This active damping system offers continuous adjustment of individual damping forces based on current road conditions and driving style.
The driver can choose from two setup modes, ‘Normal’ and ‘Sport’, using a separate ‘damper’ button on the center console. ‘Normal’ mode is designed for general road driving and circuits with uneven tarmac. ‘Sport’ mode is intended for smoother track surfaces, where the harder settings help eliminate pitch and roll.
In either mode, PASM continuously evaluates the current conditions while automatically selecting the corresponding damper rates from the respective set of mapped values.
A range of sensors are used to monitor the movement of the body under acceleration, braking and cornering maneuvers, as well as on poor road surfaces. The PASM control unit then evaluates this data and modifies the damping force on each individual wheel in accordance with the selected mode. The result is a significant reduction in body movement as well as a better grip on the road.
For example: if ‘Sport’ mode is selected, the suspension is automatically set to a harder damper rating. If the quality of the track surface falls below a certain threshold, the system immediately changes to a softer rating within the ‘Sport’ setup range. When the quality of the tarmac improves once more, PASM automatically returns to the original, harder rating.

That alone makes me stay away from that car.
I guess if it's not an issue for a perspective buyer, it would be a very nice car to have.
