I can't help with the function of those buttons. Maybe one day I'll have a p-car with those buttons then I'll have to figure it out!

I liked the base Cayman a lot too. I didn't mean to make a big deal out of the 'S'. One of my other real concerns with the CS was the amount of cabin noise. That was much less of a problem at all with the base Cayman. I'd be curious to know what you think of cabin noise. To me, the Cayman S is a much louder car than the Boxster.

I went with an 986 Boxster S (an '02). There was a more pronouced difference for me buying an '02S vs. the '99 with the 2.5 liter which is what I was initially considering...

well ive got to say cabin noise from the tyres is quite loud, I do think the looks of the cayman beside the boxster are so different,Cayman is so much prettier than the 986. in a weird way it reminds me of the Ferrari F430 from certain angles, im positive the Red has a lot to do with it.

I wouldnt have bought a nonS boxster. But i would buy a non S 911 and although the Cayman is of boxster genetics, i do think they are total oposites. and my theory works.
