Incidentally my friend who went from a BoxsterS to a GT3 said the 986 and the CaymanS were two completely different cars. I'm dying to find out missed a big chance to Autocross one of two Caymans at recent PCA event. I passed on a $50 per lap offering as well, there was one no show for his lap. Would you have done it? $50 is $50!

well the CaymanS already lapped n-ring quicker than the standard 997 Carrera.
Maybe the Boxster with CaymanS engine might come close but the rigidity advantage definitely puts the CaymanS quicker than the Carerra.
The non-S Cayman has a 2.7 engine (on par with a non-S Boxster in power)
quiet a step down with 50 less horses. I guess the non-s Cayman will be snapped up by tuners looking to drop the big ole 3.8 or Turbo/SC power in there,
rip out the interior..tasty.

p.s. ghostrider,
what other high end sports cars does Hendrick sell down there?
