Drew some inspiration from willybignut.

So you're going to mod this to be your trackcar while your Cayman gt4 is going to be your parking lot whore? I'm confused. Why destroy a beautiful ap1 for the track when you can do that with the gt4 that was designed and built for that

Im modding this to be my fun, daily driver. She will see track time but will be my daily commuter for the most part.

GT4 will see very very limited track time. The AP1 will see the majority of it.

Ok. Not like you have to explain yourself, but I was curious as to why 2 s2000's were sold for another and a new gt4. At least you kept an S. You would've regretted that down the road. Are all gt4's auto

I had 3 S2000's. 1 CR, 1 AP2 and this AP1 which i purchased from my uncle before he moved out of the country. I had intentions of just fixing it up and flipping it but i never got my asking price for the car and just hung onto it. When my number was called to secure the GT4 i had to liquidate everything i have worth money to be able to afford the GT4.

The AP1 has filled the void left by selling off the AP2 and soon CR. Once the GT4 arrives we'll see where i go with the AP1.

True story.

Porsche parts are astronomical compared to S2000 stuff.

All GT4 are manual.

I would definitely sell every other fun car I had if it would allow me to own a GT4.
