Specific notes from the seller include: the car has had minor damage and scuffing all of which has been repaired. The driver’s-side has been partially repainted, and the vehicle is covered in PPF. There is now a small mark near base of the left-hand sill, and various small marks on the PPF wrap. The interior is in excellent original condition, with no major wear. The seller notes the car occasionally blows some smoke on start-up, and occasionally shows an exhaust-related warning light which is easily cleared with the supplied Cobb device. Other observations noted are that recent compression and leak-down tests are excellent, and that a borescope examination showed no bore markings. The car’s last inspection of roadworthiness was conducted in September 2023, during which the seller reports that no warnings or advisory items were noted. This Cayman GT4’s most recent routine maintenance was carried out December 2023 at 36,027 km by Corse Automotive Services. The work comprised of an engine oil and filter change and an inspection. Prior to this, the car was serviced in Jan 2023 at 33,329 km and September 2022 at 31,808 km, both of which were routine services by Corse Automotive Services. The seller notes the car has been ‘over-serviced’ in line with its track use, and that the battery, spark plugs, coil packs, and gearbox oil were all replaced in September 2023. This 981-generation Porsche Cayman GT4 is a thrilling track toy, which is also useable on-road, and is noted to be presented in very good order.
