I’m looking to start research on getting a trackable Cayman. Think 981 Cayman S, but my issue is how do you figure out common problem areas or consumables?

Does a salvage (but solid car) even matter for a track toy? Guessing insurance is harder to get, but likely would get track day insurance anyway.

I’ve done some track days with my prior M3, GT4 and some Porsche experience days. Looking to get more serious with it (have 4 tracks within a 2 hour radius).

    Thanks! Appreciate the insight, so my thought on the insurance was of course an accident vs a mechanical failure, but I see your point if you buy a 40k cayman that would be roughly 30 track days before you’ve bought the car again.

    When I had the GT4 the big concern was the strut towers cracking, is this the same issue on the S? I want to say it’s the same frame/platform but wasn’t sure if the extra HP/TQ is why the GT4 could suffer stress fractures.
