At the local P-car dealer and saw a new 718 Cayman in Sapphire Blue and now I can't get it out of my head. been looking at the Porsche configurator and searching the dealers stock.
Does anyone have one and what options did you get? So far my must have options are the Sapphire Blue, PDK and Nav, leaning towards the Sport Chrono and PASM. maybe the PTV. Still trying to convince the GF but I think I might be wearing her down. The PDK will be good because then she could drive it. |

Most here can’t afford a new P car (that’s why we have 914s (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) )
I’ve driven the last 3 years worth of the model range due to a track day hookup from the factory dealer. Go drive one yourself, don’t believe the press, these new turbo cars are amazing! Engines are very stout, I actually like the standard 991.2 Carter’s, the smaller turbo boost makes it feel almost NA. The 718 S feels about the same on power (had them back to back on the auto-x course) but feels more boosted. FWIW the bosxsters sound just fine w/ sport exhaust, the press is full of it complaining about the noise, or maybe I don’t mind a flat 4 soundtrack (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Now the Cayman R or GT4, that’s a horse of a different color, they are straight up awesome |
