I had an 08 Cayman S. Its a very capable car but has no character and I don't care for 987 interiors. I didn't get attached to it. It only lasted a year.

I realize it's just personal taste, but what don't you like about them?

It just looks dated but not enough to be considered classic. I don't mind the 986 interiors at all. It probably doesn't make sense and yes its just personal taste.

I had an '07 Cayman S. Once it got above 4200 RPM's it was a BEAST.
