2012 Cayman R Test Drive Today
Oh Yes we did ! Porsche sent 8 2012 Factory Test drive cars to Sun Valley, Idaho today for a invitational customer test drive. My wife and I attended and went for our test drive in the new 2012 Cayman R. That 330 HP is sweet. The car was equipped with the PDK 7 speed. I would have preferred a stick, but what the heck, I could learn to like PDK if I had to. It also had Sport Chrono and Sport Plus and Sport Exhaust. It was dark blue with a silver stationary up high wing.
We like, yes we do. Pictures as soon as I can figure out how to reduce the size and post. |
I rode in one at an auto cross a couple weekends ago.
Amazing car. Big difference from my 98. I wish GT2 seats weren't so expensive. They are awesome. |
tell us more about the driving experience compared to your Boxsters.

Must Have Pictures!
Sounds like a beautiful car.

It looked just like the one on the cover of the June 2011 EXCELLENCE magazine except for 2 things. It had a charcole color interior and Georgia plates on it. This copy had A/C, radio and Navigation display.
Those racing seats were actualy comfotable for our 40 minute drive. The racing seats only adjust fore and aft. No other adjustments. I would definately order with regular sport seats. The driving experience was simular to our S in handling and ride comfort. We were limited in our test corse to a prescribed route and we had a Porsche factory person leading the caravan of cars. They let us romp a little, but we were told to keep it legal. Yeah right (several 100+ bursts) The extra 80 HP and TQ was definately fun. I have always wanted 300+ HP in the Box. It did bottom out on the rough spots more easily than the S due to lower stance and shorter suspension stroke. Over all ride quality was fine. We drove the same corse in the Box afterwards and I was Ok with the ride of both cars. |
