Sweet car and I’m jealous. As far as the exhaust sound, for a while I was interested in a 2006 M3,but could not get past the exhaust sound! Deal breaker!

To each his own, no reason to hate. Enjoy it.

Congrats! Pcars are very, very nice indeed, albeit i do enjoy passing most of them at a track. Uber ones excepted. Btw: you gonna wrap the hood black?!

Nice car! Hang loose (shaka bradda)

The GT3 RS is my dream car🤙🏽

When brand names mean everything....

So you let go of the top of the line all motor model of a car to what is considered the i4’s in the porsche world. Down grade in my eyes even if its a more expensive car.

What people do just to have that keyfob.
Enjoy going to high end restaurants and clubs where people dont know about cars, they just know its a porsche.

I love porsches but not the ones that are produced just to keep funding their 911’s 😂

Wow! You just shit all over this guy because he bought a car he always wanted.

BradfordCamaro · 10-25-2018, 09:45 AM

He went from a Chevy to a Porsche.
I wouldn't look back either.

The cars are different and provide different experiences. I like and appreciate both of the cars in question. The Cayman S (to be fair I haven't driven the latest gen) is a fantastic street car and it is very fun to drive. Interior quality is worlds better in the Cayman compared to the Camaro.

I actually prefer the Cayman to the 911. Your last statement makes me think that you haven't driven either of them. To me, people who buy a 911 just because it's a 911 are the silly ones when the Cayman is just so much more fun to drive.

The GT4 specifically is a wonderful car. While it's slower than the 1LE at the track, I enjoy driving GT4s more. I just don't want to pay for one.

So maybe he bought the car because he enjoys it and doesn't really care about people's reactions/perceptions? A buddy of mine (who is a Porsche guy) daily drives a Fiesta ST because he hates the perception people apply to him if he drives a Porsche. The Fiesta ST is actually a blast to drive too.

Camaro SS 1le motortrend

You can tell him his car is gutless as he passes you

I've never driven a Cayman but my Dad did last recently and he said there's nothing like it. It handles like no other car. I said yeah, but that 4 cyl sound.....isn't it boring? He said, what?? I don't know. I could care less about that stuff! LOL.

Of course my Dad is 82. But I need a good soundtrack to go with a car. Deal breaker for me.
