The article gives the curb weight as 3200 lbs. (est.). Wonder why the coupe weighs 300 lbs. more than a convertible? I had always thought convertible tops, especially motorized ones, added weight.

'Course, convertibles cost more than coupes in most cars outside of Porsche-land, too (with the same engine, of course).

So a 2.7 non-S Cayman should run below $43,000. No blasts please, just letting my imagination run a bit.
