A loaded cayman in 911 territory?!

AS IT SHOULD BE!!

Look don't get me wrong the 911 is fine car and from the side and back its quiet beautiful but the CaymanS will eat a standard Carrera alive. The CaymanS is a sportscar in the purest sense. Why wouldn't it be similar in price?

This notion that the 911 is the be all and end all of the Porsche brand is a bit outdated. I'll take the CaymanS every time! An Excellence contributor once proclaimed that "the BoxsterS and CarreraGT are the two best handling cars Porsche has on offer". Let's get that guy in more rigid Boxster with MORE power and see what he has to say now.

A mid engine mounted 3.4 on a world class chasis? No contest. No pendulus cornering or nervous-front-end-at-100+mph-in-a-cross-wind handlin for me thank you.

I hope they just redo all the front end styling on these new cars. I still haven't warmed up to the Beetle meets RX8 look.
