Hey Folks,

I am a huge fan of the Boxster S, and I have dumped a bunch of coin into mine, developing an entry level "Supercar"......0->60 mph well under 5.0 sec.

That being said, I was able to test drive a '08 Cayman S on some challenging roads and I have to say that the raw potential of the car put it in the "Beast" category. I personally would place it a nose ahead of the GT3, which I test drove on the same roads.....better balance.

Bottom line, the Cayman S is a stiffer platform than the Boxster S.......but that is because the top does not retract.

I am sure you will enjoy either!

Happy Trails,
Ike
