2007 Porsche Cayman 5-Speed

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

Out of a combination of a lifelong automotive passion and an unyielding desire to support the people of his Alabama community, the Generous Collection was born. Mr. Greg Rusk, a successful business leader in the cardboard industry, with a big heart for helping families and friends in times of need, would regularly pay overly generous fees to acquire an interesting vehicle. After decades of collecting and supporting local automotive enthusiasts, the Rusk family is ready for these vehicles, each with their own story, to write their next chapter back on the road, where they belong.

The Generous Collection returns with Part 2 offering over 250 cars in August all offered without reserve, emerging from years of long-term silent storage. From the quiet shadows of the Generous Collection to the sunshine of backroads and highways, enthusiasts now have the opportunity to own a piece of a generous car-collecting legacy.

The 2007 Porsche Cayman marked the second model year of Porsche’s mid-engine sports coupe, introduced in 2006 as a more focused sibling to the Boxster. Positioned between the Boxster and the 911, the Cayman offered a hardtop chassis that enhanced rigidity and handling. The base 2007 Cayman featured a 2.7-liter flat-six engine producing 245 horsepower, utilizing Porsche’s VarioCam Plus system for variable valve timing and lift.

The Cayman’s balanced mid-engine layout provided exceptional handling dynamics, earning praise from enthusiasts and automotive journalists alike. Porsche’s attention to weight distribution and suspension tuning made the Cayman a rocket in corners, with precise steering and a planted feel.

Though it shared many components with the Boxster, the Cayman carved out its own identity as a purist’s sports car, offering coupe rigidity and sharper dynamics. This 2007 Cayman was sold from the famous dealer, Brumos Motor Cars, Jacksonville, Florida. It’s finished in Arctic Silver Metallic with a standard Black leather interior.

This 2007 Porsche Cayman is now represented at no reserve by a Broad Arrow Specialist with a CARFAX Vehicle History Report and a rebuilt Alabama title in the current owner's name.

Please note that all lots in The Generous Collection are offered after many years of storage, without operation or service, in warehouse facilities. The seller endeavored to provide very limited mechanical servicing to bring some cars back to running potential; however, not all cars will be running at time of sale. Because of the extended static display, it must be assumed that all cars will require extensive additional mechanical attention before being driven safely and, in most cases, cleaning both the interiors and exteriors. All the cars will have imperfections associated with long-term static storage and require extensive sorting to perform best and safely. The burden of determining a car’s status, both mechanical and cosmetic, rests fully on the bidder, prior to bidding and the close of the auction. All lots are sold as is, where is.  

Additionally, due to the location of the collection and limited access to the facility following the close of the auction, all lots must be retrieved while a Broad Arrow representative is onsite, between the hours of 9AM to 6PM local time beginning Monday, September 14 through Wednesday, September 30. No cars can be retrieved prior to September 14, and any lots remaining after September 30 will be re-located outside in the parking lot for retrieval by their buyers.
