Back in 2014 I was shopping a 2008 Cayman that was CPO and under 30,000 miles. The IMS bearing issue ultimately kept me away from it and I didn't much like the cockpit fit. I bought a low-mile Z4 3.0si coupe instead. Glad I did. The Z4 has needed just tires, brakes and fluid changes for the past 95,000 miles.
The shifter cables are just a Cayman thing and very common. IMS sucks but actually isn't as bad as some of the other issues that plague those engines, although the 2.9 is less affected.
