My P car drought is over!

It's been almost 10 years since I sold my 997S. Brought home this 2014 Cayman S. 22k miles. Very well equipped. Holy hell does it make a lovely sound. I'm a happy camper.

Very nice! Is it a manual? Stock or aftermarket exhaust?

Sweet! Does it have Porsche Sport Exhaust or Sport Chrono or any of that? How much, if I may ask? With the low miles I'm guessing above $50K these days. They were $40K three years ago.

My car looks almost as good as your I have an 09 S Black on black with Carman R exhaust which makes a little more racket then stock. I have a very mild Cobb tune and IPD Plenum pushing maybe 330-335hp if that much? The Cobb tune changed the shift point on the PDK making feel like it has another 50-60 hp and a bit faster revving. I think your car is the first year they updated the pdk so it shifts a bit faster. It has a little over 100,000 miles on it already so shocks were replaced at 80,000 with Ohlins. It changed the way the car drives. Really tighten things up a lot. I have it set at the softest setting with custom springs that are 100 lbs less then Ohlin's street / track. Caymans are a blast to drive. Your car looks great there.

Why are so many asking about the exhaust? The stock isn't that bad sounding.

Congrats. I’ve had my ‘14 Cayman for over 10 years and I’m still in awe of its perfection every time I drive it!
