The Exhaust button should be to activate the Sport Exhaust = make it louder.
The suspension button should activate Sport Suspension = Tighten up the handling.
Let us know what you figure out.

James,

Go to the Porsche website. There should be a detailed explanation of Sport Exhaust and Sport Suspension. I don't have these on my car but one of my friends with a 987 does. The Sport Exhaust button opens two valves to allow some of the gases to bypass the muffler. You probably won't notice much difference until you really wind her up.

My friend doesn't get too excited about the Sport Exhaust but he loves the Sport Suspension for track days.

The Porsche Design Cayman S does come with matte black stripes over a black finish. They're also on the side of the car.

i dont know if anyones told you this yet but.......i read your planning on putting your 986 wheels on the cayman. this wont work as the offset of the hubs is completely, hubs on the 987 are the same as the cayman so thats not a problem but changin wheels between the 986 to the 987/ cayman wont go unless your takin the hubs with you.

very nice upgrade!! love the cayman, looks more like a 911 than the current 911.

I'm going to be a wannabe cayman owner and just buy a Zeintop.
