I love my 2016 Cayman S, the 7 speed PDK is awesome.
Soon is NO ICE motors for the Cayman.

Well-played, Sir. I believe the Cayman is, for most of our intents and purposes, Porsche's first mid-engine coupe. Should be lighter than if it were topless, and the engine is in the right place. The Cayman should be able to out-perform the 911, and would....if Porsche were willing to build that car.

I would complain about HD not coming back to update the thread, but I'm sure he's spending some quality time with his new wheels.

THey do sound great, although I do love mine with the PSE on, but I don't turn it on often. I was in a parking lot with the PSE on (people glued to their phones hear it since they'll never see it). I guy in a new (this was 5-6 years ago, I think) 911 Turbo S came by and asked about the car. He said that mine sounded better than his.

A few more. There may be some water stains from me drooling on it.

I wish I'd not optioned the 20" wheels. Since I ordered mine sight unseen, I wasn't sure how the 19's would look but they do look really nice. Plus they provide a little better ride with no performance loss.
