Porsche Cayman S 987

[Boydie]

Finally decided on a new car!

After torturing you over S4's and 5's I think I made a more sensible decision in going with a car I first test drove around Croft race track 5 years ago.

Going for the Cayman S didn't require finance which I would have had to have done with the S4/5, it's pre April 2006 so cheaper tax, nearly half the price to insure compared to my S3, more economical surprisingly and an absolute hoot to drive!!

I was very nervous about finding a car I would really like after the S3 but I think it's safe to say I've found it.

2006 Porsche Cayman S 987
295bhp
Manual
Basalt black
Sports chrono
PASM
Bose
Carrera 4S 19" wheels
Sat nav
Sports seats
Sports exhaust
Cubby holes everywhere!

Just treated the car to a full major service courtesy of McMilen Porsche, fanastic job from the guys there and the car is totally different to drive now, I love it!!

Reg is to go on in the next couple of weeks and haven't anything major planned for it, potentially:

H&R springs but under guards scuff on ramps as it is
Revo remap maybe depending on feedback
Tidy up a few marks and give it a proper clean.
Retro fit cruise
New front tyres.

Wow! Looks fantastic Boydie!

Would a map make much difference on an N/A 3.4?

PS: Still in an Audi! (sort of!)

Nice one Boydie. Didn't see that coming, but sounds like a perfect choice.

Plenty of time for an Avant in the future.

Enjoy!

Lovely example, looks wheel on the wheels. Mines more economical than the mondeo st220 I have and cheapermto insure

 

[KeithRobinson]

Great example, health to enjoy!

PS. The wheels are carrera design, but specific to the cayman as they are narrower. 4s wheels are 11" rears #porschenerd

Looks great, must feel slow compared to the S3 though? Completely different experience I imagine.
