this isn't an R. The headlight ring is not black and the side decals are wrong. The Cayman R one is shorter and is also applied to the front bumper. Nevertheless, ouch.

I was there today. The battered 'cayman r' was parked next to a lovely 964 and my spyder. A guy who walked past as I was coming to my car described the 964 as a jumped up beetle and my car as a proper hairdressers car. I was with my daughter so I kept quiet. I can only assume he arrived in a Ferrari 250 (or on the bus).

PS - it looked like a cayman R as the headlight surrounds looked black and the decals don't extend to bumper on cayman r

Biggest crime of owning cayman R is not track it. st just happens but I feel sorry for the car and the owner. I have no idea what did happen but it is great that you guys can find some much fun out of others misery.

Can't see anyone on here having fun at the Cayman owners expense.
