A 2007 Porsche Cayman with a five-speed manual transaxle is being offered at no reserve by a New York dealer that is a Bring a Trailer Local Partner, with bidding open to any buyer regardless of the final price. The mid-engined coupé, finished in Basalt Black Metallic over Stone Grey leather, has covered 84,000 miles and comes with a documented service history.
The car was previously sold by the same dealer on the platform in July 2021 before being reacquired in 2026. Preparation for the current sale included servicing the five-speed manual transaxle and the air conditioning system. The work also covered replacing the water pump, thermostat, battery, serpentine belt, idler pulley, spark plugs, ignition coils, filters and exhaust clamps. Three of the exhaust clamps were replaced in 2026 when the transaxle was serviced.
Power comes from a 2.7-litre flat-six mounted ahead of the rear cargo area, factory rated at 245 horsepower and 201 lb-ft of torque. A magnetic oil drain plug is said to have been fitted in 2021, and a Blackstone oil analysis report from that year is included in the listing gallery. Power reaches the rear wheels through the five-speed manual gearbox.
Chassis changes include H&R springs fitted under previous ownership, and the car rides on 18-inch Cayman S wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tyres bearing 2021 and 2022 production codes. The selling dealer reports that the front brake rotors, pads, wear sensors and caliper bolts were replaced in August 2026, and that replacement steering rack boots were installed at the same time.
Inside, the cabin is trimmed in Stone Grey leather with matching door panels and carpets. Equipment includes heated seats, cruise control, automatic climate control, the Sound Package Plus and power windows, locks and mirrors. Wear is visible on the climate control toggles. The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a tachometer redlining at 8,000 rpm, a speedometer reading to 175 mph, and gauges for fuel level and coolant temperature.
Exterior equipment includes fog lights, retrofitted clear front corner markers, a speed-dependent decklid spoiler and a central exhaust outlet. Paint protection film covers the front end and the area ahead of the rear wheel arches, and flaws in the film, along with paint meter readings and other exterior imperfections, are shown in the gallery.
The listing includes manufacturer literature, two keys, a set of stock corner markers, service records, a clean Carfax report showing no accidents or reported damage, and a clean New Jersey title. Bidding is open at no reserve, meaning the car will be sold to the highest bidder whatever that figure is.
