I disagree. The Cayman S is tits. I'd never own a Boxster, even when they bump it up.

I will give people rides, but not everyone - I'm going to be a picky asshole, so I can get my snobby-jerk-of-a-Porsche-Owner reputation going real good

2007 Cayman S in Black with Black interior

PCM 2.1 with Navigation
Preferred Package
Climate Control
Sport Steering Wheel

That's about it. I wanted it built for daily driving comfort, and room for coilovers, SSK, and a chip down the road. Too bad none of that stuff is widely available yet


If you're really good on the Porsche Configurator, you can get a Cayman S up to $120,000 - you really need to know what you're doing though. My favorite Porsche's to build on there: Turbo (not too many options....comparatively speaking), and the best is the GT3

I take that back - you can configure a GT3 now

Best I could do was $142,000 on the GT3.

Of course - they're a must on any dream build
